TE class is too loaded in the draft this year to spend money on a FA. be smart this year. save the money for next year after our QB has developed for a year. 

Disagree. TE's generally take at least 2-3 years to get up to NFL caliber play. We need a receiving threat NOW. We can't wait for one to possibly, maybe develop. TE is one of the hardest positions to play and the best ones in the league are generally not drafted high. 

Get our rookie a vet TE who knows how to get open and play the position.

A veteran TE is a rookie QBs best friend.  It would be malpractice to draft a QB and give him our current QB room and/or a rookie TE.  I agree, we need to draft a TE, but that doesn't mean we stay away from the position in FA.  Stating the obvious, FA comes before the draft and we can't risk not being in the right spot to draft a TE and miss out entirely.  We don't need to blow a ton of money, a middling guy would suffice.

I'm sensing an Allen Lazard type pickup.  Honestly, would rather angle for a trade at WR and draft a TE.  Unless we REALLY want Schultz or Gesicke, don't think we overspend at either spot.  WR FA class is yikes.     

We may be gunning for Dre'mont Jones or if Shaq isn't fully reworked, could sign Okereke and tell him bon voyage.

Mike Gesicki is the pass catcher I want them spending on today

WR needs to be addressed through trades. This WR FA class is trash

pretty much this. add one via trade and then hit pass catchers like crazy in the draft.

we should do both. one vet and one draft pick TE.

BPA among all pass catchers for a few rounds after we get our QB.

      The Pro Bowl is Unwatchable

      you could even divide it up by division and conference with a similar seeding to the actual playoffs, culminating in it’s own Super Bowl.

      Regression to the mean causes Tepper to give up on Bryce.  Six wins and we get the number seven draft pick and take Brendan Sorsby Texas Tech QB.

      The Pro Bowl is Unwatchable

      By Growl · Posted

      The pro bowl should be brought back, it should be in Honolulu with proper marketing and eyes on it, it should be the nfl subsidizing a week long vacation for guys with their families-with that the one big change to make is to get rid of the fan voting. Have each send a collection of five or six guys they deemed their best and if the rosters get a little wonky personnel-wise, that’s okay. That’s part of the fun. short of that, the only other thing I could recommend is having a similar set-up-no fan voting, teams selecting their best players, and sending them to compete against the chosen players from 31 other teams in real Olympic level sporting completions to see who comes out on top.   seeing the panthers delegates beat the disgusting saints delegates up for the Gold in the rowing competition or the 4x100 relay would actually feed into the competitive nature of fans and give them something to root for. you could even have under armour sell the logo cladded up team gear that the pros wear in these games for money, this stuff basically writes itself if the nfl wasn’t trying to use this event help sell the idea that no defense and lots of passing is a GOOD THING and you LOVE THIS and THE GAMES SHOULD BE MORE LIKE THIS.
