anyone else concerned about the lack of quality in the NT position? I know FA is just starting but damn we need help at NT because this 3-4 defense needs a space eater in there. 

Not at all, saw people saying today after we signed him that Tuttle is more like 325 lbs these days, and let's be real, we could put DB in that spot on run plays and he isn't going to be moved anywhere and take up 2 blockers.  He probably is best used as a pass rushing DE in the 3-4, but if we lack true NT depth in year 1 with this staff, I think he can spend some of his time there in the middle.

That's also a position that a lot of times can be filled with a late round draft pick since you're really just looking for a massive human being who isn't going to pass rush, they can be found in the 5-7 round range.  Use our our first 4 picks on offense and then use our second 4th or 5th rounder on a 350 lbs NT.

That would give us about 12 million left unless you already took out the 8 needed for rookies.

Which is why we need to cut Elflein, he isn't too hard to replace on the roster, especially if Cade can take a step forward this year.  We need that $4 million to spend elsewhere right now, can get backup lineman in the draft or later in FA.

Still need to land some WR, RB, TE, DE, CB, plus a backup QB too.

That's not counting rookies. I expect them to target, wr, de/te and rb in the draft if they can't bring Forman back on a good deal. 

Got to get a cb and either de or te somewhere in fa. I'd expect they get a younger raw free agent Edge rusher in FA to pair with Burns on the outside and get a cheaper vet to fill out the other 3-4 end.

Tuttle will be the 3-4 nose, mcall will back him up I imagine.  Then you've got Brown on one end and YGM on the other as starters. Edge you've got Burns and a bunch of ? marks that could make a huge impact in the new defense.  Ilb seems set with shaq and Chinn. Just need depth at corner and on dl from draft and FA unless you can get a good vet for cheap. 

 

Offense needs help though at TE, WR and RB. 

 

I think they've done a lot to improve the middle of the defense today

Good moves today, interested to see what Foreman will do.

Elf was decent at C and held his own, very serviceable backup to Boze but a tad expensive because I think Elf really is only good at C. He never looked great at guard.

Will Elf restructure or is he a cut??

For cap reasons, he will be cut.  I think Mays can back up Bozeman at C.

About NT--we have Marquan McCall who was pretty solid last year in very limited duty--345 lbs.  56.8 PFF score for a rookie (he will be 24).  Bravvion Roy is 330 lbs in limited duty and he scored a 56 PFF-he will be 26.  That is not great, but it is serviceable.

I think Gant said Tuttle will be the NT and his playing weight is closer to 320. Tuttle with McCall/Roy as depth is decent.

    • Necas is going to be stud with a team like leafs that lets their stars shine. I’m going to miss that guy. 
    • ast updated today 19th May 2024 Some people are unsure if Sugar Defender  is real, so here's the truth: there's no evidence that it's a scam. The company clearly lists all the ingredients and doesn't make wild promises. Instead, they support their claims with scientific studies. They have research backing up what they say about Sugar Defender's benefits. Even if some people are skeptical, there's no proof that Sugar Defender is fake. It's important to look at the facts and see that the company is being honest and open about their product.         Order Now Sugar Defender and Get 85% Off   The best part about this supplement is that it's really easy to use, and you don't need to do anything extra to keep your blood sugar levels steady. Plus, it's all-natural and made safely to address the main cause of blood sugar problems.   How long does it take for Sugar Defender to work? How fast Sugar Defender works can be different for each person. It depends on things like how fast your body works, any health issues you already have, and how often you use it. But since they give you 60 days to try it out and get your money back if it doesn't work for you, it's likely that most people see some changes within that time if they use it like they're supposed to. For the best results, use it for at least 90 days.   What Is Sugar Defender? Sugar Defender is a special formula that helps your body respond better to insulin. It's made with the purest ingredients. Every ingredient has been tested many times to make sure they're the best, and the company says there are no stimulants, chemicals, or things that could cause allergies in it. They make it in a super clean lab that follows strict rules. The goal of Sugar Defender is to naturally lower your blood sugar levels and keep them steady and healthy. It's a supplement that won't get you hooked and doesn't have any stimulants or GMOs. And guess what? It's easy to use! Each bottle has enough for a whole month. Just take the right amount every day, and you're all set!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
    • Agree on Necas, he’s gone. Guentzel seems 50-50 to me, Canes would have to pony up. Still not sure Skjei will be back. From exit interviews he seemed less optimistic than Pesce and I definitely don’t think Pesce is back. Jarvis and Noesen have to be back. I think if Kuzy shoots more he could be a great asset. Put him with a passer like Turbo and a net front like Noesen.
