Asking price on some (or all) of these will likely be higher than teams would be willing to pay, but it's out there.

Mentioned previously for those who think Ekwonu should go to guard, Bolles could be a thought.

Burns for Bolles, Jeudy and Surtain…

Why would the Broncos trade Surtain?

After catching up with the tAFS, one of Sweat or Young could be on the move from WAS. Sweat to JAX  is a surfacing rumor pet Nate Tice. Honestly love that fit

Starting to think teams will just trade for Sweat or Young.

 

They will be cheaper than Burns and they also could trade less for them.

And honestly, Sweat was taken not too long after Burns, same draft, and has produced similar numbers.  

He's also improved drastically in run defense.  That's honestly a good comp -- Burns v. Sweat.  I remember a lot of peeps did like him in that draft build up.  

If you can get Sweat for less, I think that's far more appealing than Burns.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
