I suspect this room is going to look completely different next fall.  By Any mean necessary.

The is arguably the worst in the league.

Additionally. Our New HC has been credited for turning around 2 QBs who just so happened to step in to situations that had top 5 in the NFL WR duos.

Alot of work needs to be done in that room.  Chark and Viska should walk, TMJ most certainly a cut, probably should trade Theilen because of the value/ target share in the MOF.  It might not all happen in one year but we need to inject speed and a #1 into the WR core and will probably need to find some kind of TE to affect the passing game especially considering Hurst's serious concussion issues.  At WR at least there is alot of solid options in free agency and as potential trade candidates.

In no way should we let go of Adam T, what we need to do it seems like is add a major free agent like Tee Higgins then add a mid level like Curtis Samuels back to go along with Mingo and Adam. He’s to reliable to let go we need him in the slot and all over the field producing first downs. Maybe we bring back DJ Chark if we can get a good deal done to build off last year and because football’s a rough sport I expect injuries to all positions if you’re deep you’ll be able to maintain through those injuries.

AT did well in that slot/chain mover roll but he was also eating up all the targets in the MOF to the point the TEs couldn't get involved and I think long term you can replace that with proper investments a say a mid-round rookie WR and TEs.  I don't think his value will ever be higher and the team needs some injection of youth and speed to open up the field so to me its a "take a step back to leap forward" type of move.

Higgins or a Pittman are probably the best targets to be #1 WRs on the free agent market.  I'd target Marquis Brown as the #2/speedster but Samuels can get open and would be a good option too.  Big fan of Diontae Johnson if he were to come available for trade too.

I don't think Seattle wants to give DK another big contract next offseason, have to think he has some sort of relationship with Canales.

I'd look into a trade of Burns for DK if I were Morgan (assuming him and Canales have a good relationship of course)

The one to keep an eye on is Lockett that worked heavily with Canales. He will be the casualty there with JSN coming up. DK should be in SEA to stay for a bit.

Unless they cut Lockett and we can get him on a severe discount, I have no interest in Lockett.

He'll turn 32 early into next season where DK just turned 26 in December.

I think JSN was drafted to replace DK long term so they don't need to give him another big deal, as they'd need to do that next offseason.

Tag and trade Burns for DK and then give him a new 4 year contract extension

And if we can't/won't do this, I still think we need to try and find a way to trade for Aiyuk, although that could be more difficult as I think the 49ers are going to want draft picks in return, not someone they have to give a big contract to, as that's why they'll need to trade Aiyuk anyways, too many big contracts on their books and won't be able to afford to re-sign him long term.

Thats a bit too much of a pipe dream for me though, just trying to connect dots.

Aiyuk is one of the best pure receivers in the league. Doubt SF looks to move him. He’s an integral part of their team vying for a SB.

Doubt Metcalf is going anywhere as well.

It's not Thielen's fault that our other receivers sucked.

      I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      By frankw · Posted

      Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
