I realize that he did not play much in 2023, but a post June 1 cut of Austin Corbett is not as crazy as it sounds. 

First, he is coming off a pretty serious injury for a big man.

Second, he did not play well last year when he played

Third, a post June 1 cut would create the following:

Now,he is not worth $10m and he will be 29, which is "in his prime" for a G, so there is that.

And I realize that many of you have some concerns about PFF, but for assessing OL play, it is about the best measure we have--Corbett played about 257 snaps which is about 4 full games.  He was on pace to surrender between 12 and 13 sacks.  For a guard, that is inexcusable.  His rating of 47.9 is abysmal.  

We are slated to pay him between 10 and 11 million dollars for this kind of performance.  I know we cant cut everyone, but he would give us over $6m in cap room and his replacement is likely to do much better than this---

What the hell did Campen do all day?

I assume when they are talking about upgrading the OL.. particularly the iOL.. this is what they are alluding too.

    • 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.
