So we are down our 2 starting OGs plus our top CB and it’s only week 2.

Sounds bad but a glance around the league shows we aren't that bad off relatively. Some teams are getting crushed by injuries. Giants really stick out

The stupid part of my brain say we should just release him. 
But the rational part of my brain says that he will end up on a team and not get hurt and we will lose out. 
I think we should ride him out but we need more depth next year and I think we seriously need to consider not giving him his 5th year option.

Geez. How was this not reported earlier by the team?  
 

I see we also added another WR with a blazing 4.54 40 time.  SMH 

I remembered him being a track athlete during that draft, and yes he was.

Without checking my notes, I thought he had a hard time to separate and one game he was locked up by a WR converted to play DB just for that game to cover him. He ended up with a TD but I think he was covered by another DB for that play.

Lots of people here was intrigued by him during that draft process. I wasnt sold on him. 

I think it is a decent pickup just to see if he has developed.

Why the hell can we never catch a break?  Like ever.  2015 and 2003 were the only years where things bounced the right way for us, and we made it to the Super Bowl both years.  God, I just want a team that is good and competitive year in and year out.  At least I am also a Braves fan because my NBA and NFL teams cannot ever get right.

I tell myself all the time "thank God at least one of the three teams I'm obsessed with is the Braves"

Looks like the Ekwonu-Zavala left side combo might happen sooner than expected. Reich said that the team was bullish on Mays during the preseason, so I could see him being easier for them to replace with Corbett once he's healed.

If Zavala balls out, he might hold that LG position until the rest of the season. If he doesn't, expect BC back starting (which isn't necessarily a bad thing!).

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
