Hope this wasn't to appease Duce. I'm not knocking anything. Have loved the teams moves. This one leaves me a bit perplexed. We had Hammer n nails (or tacks) if that's how you consider Mrs. Rhules boy. I hated him out of college n year one. Guy showed something this past year. Is Sanders worth 6 times his value even if we lose the Hammer (Foreman). I'm not seeing it n don't even throw in what if we land Foreman too, were still talking 6x the value, I don't dislike the guy. Watch the highlights, looks a lot like Hubbard. Chark would be on my team to cut our slow azz receiving core. We can't make rb a luxury. Flame on.

New system needs rbs that are dual threat.

Foreman signed a 1 year $3 million deal after several days of FA. The league sets its values on players. Our OL helped him look great. Sanders is a 3 down back who also has good hands. He is like a Saquan-lite with less injuries.

Problem is we had that for millions less.

    • I love this draft because they picked the right OL.  It is possible that we have 2 rookies starting on the OL.  I would take Utah's Lomu as well, but for those who think you find the OL in free agency and not the draft, here is all I have to say:  We cannot give $110m to the 5 starting OL.  We need an infusion of youth on the OL as well.  If Ickey returns and can play, I imagine that he takes over for Hunt at RG--in 2027 or so.  Currently, our 2 guards and right tackle make up over 20% of the total cap.  We have to add 2 starters, but if Cade Mays was too pricey at around (anticipated) $8m, then we plan to draft a C, it seems. I think we draft an OT and C now because we will need a G or 2 and a RT soon.  While they were good in 2026, they were not elite.  For that kind of $$, we need elite.  Is starting a rookie LT and C ideal?  Nope.  But if we can get better than Nijman and Mays, we should be OK. I think we will pick up an ILB in free agency and add an ILB.  Who we draft (Mike or Will) will depend on who we sign.  Rodriguez is a favorite of mine, but if Golday is there, Morgan is going to take him.  Morgan will love him. I do not think we need to overpopulate the edge position right now because we have 1 edge returning from injury (Jones II), one rookie from last year ready to step up and could be really good (Scourton), and another who could be ready to step into the situational pass rusher role (Princely).  2 hold the edge very well and if we had a situational pass rusher to join Princely, we could be much better. I think rookies at Edge tend to jump considerably from their rookie seasons to years 2 and 3.  (Charles Johnson, Mike Rucker, and Greg Hardy were that way-and all became very good in time. Safety seems omitted, but we shall see.  That could be another free agent acquisition.
    • Id like Evans from Duke in the draft as a shooter for the second unit. And probably a more athletic big to replace all, he's good but doesn't really fit the style. White, Evans, green, Williams and center tbd is a pretty good second unit
