I wish folks around here would learn to do the same thing. 

Im too hyped and aware of the darkness that awaits.

Not had much to cheer for around these parts, the new supreme staff and taken in the first three days to cure of the post-rhule depression... 

Like taking those first steps form the hospital......long road work is ahead, but thee sun and wind feels good..

I don't care how you get one, but you have to get a WR #1.

You can't draft a rookie QB 1st overall and pay an RB 6.5 million and not give your top pick a #1 WR.

I know we can't get a #1 for the same 6.5, but we could have used that plus a little more to have signed someone who could have fit the bill and then drafted an RB in the 3rd round to go along with a cheaper FA option.

Again, I like landing Sanders, behind our OL he should be real good, and I don't hate the contract as long as we get a #1 WR this year, if we don't, I'm not going to be so thrilled about it.

Shut up.

Duce Staley talked in his presser about needing "a stable" of runningbacks these days to keep the wear and tear down on the individual backs.

Roschon Johnson or Charbonnet would absolutely be tantalizing with Miles Sanders.  

Thinking right in line with how DET used Jamaal/Swift.

Sanders, Hubbard (I think he is a decent 2nd back), and probably a mid/late draft pick. All should have a nice OL to run behind.

This signing has no bearing on whether we can get a WR. 1st year cap hits are always Iow; Sanders is probably going to account for $2 million in 2023. That's not the difference between us affording a good receiver vs not. The bigger issue is there aren't really any WR1s available in free agency. Probably our best bet is getting an ok #2 like Parris Campbell and drafting one with pick 39. Or we could consider trading a day 3 pick for Hopkins. But all of those are still very feasible after this signing.

I'd keep Sanders, Foreman and Blackshear myself.

Maybe a fourth guy on the practice squad.
