I think Ian Thomas and Von Bell are coming up this week

Bell played well and with woods, its the only position on the roster thats average-above in play/talent. 

Wouldnt surpise me, safety across the league are getting cut. Most teams always try to save $$$ there. 

Thomas should have never been re-signed in the first place. Huddle was right.

This is where I don't understand cap space. If we wait the savings appear much larger. Is the roster bonus money that big of a deal just because of the timing (prior to the big FA rush)?

From what someone said earlier in Elonworld.. They can designate moves as post 6/1 when the season starts and the moves are official..

Ian Thomas is the new Brenton Bersin in that he somehow manages to stay on the team year after year of being terrible. 

If Dan doesn't cut him to save $6 million in cap, then I'll fully believe that Ian has dirt on either Dave or Nicole.

Just let it sink in that Ian had 56 TOTAL YARDS RECEIVING YARDS LAST YEAR. 

Bersin was WAY better than Ian Thomas.

This encourages me that the Morgan/Canales combo can atleast recognize the simple talent evaluation. I literally watched YouTube highlights when we signed Hurst and Sanders and could tell they weren't that good. Yet the guys getting pain MILLIONS of dollars couldn't smdh

It at least saves the roster bonus for this year.

Gotta love Fitterer, the gift that keeps giving. We basically paid Thomas and Hurst over $16M for 2023. Basically, we had TE 2 (Hockenson) cost for TE 32 play. SMH.

Not surprising but I hope he's okay.  He had some kind of amnesia after a concussion this year.

He forgot how to catch, but that was before the concussion.

Yall were so happy when we signed him lol

It was the first attempt to roll with someone other than Thomas.  Yes, many of us were happy.  Hurst got cut and still was better than Thomas.

Like @kungfoodude, I didn’t like spending so much money on guys who were never good or a guy not close in talent that we signed to replace CMC for basically the same amount of “new” money.

We put lipstick on a pig in the offseason. CMC and Moore would have cost us around $30M in 2023. We spent that $30M on Sanders, Hurst, Chark and Houston in 2023 and well, we got poo for it and poo in trade value.

      Good film breakdown of Young. Good and bad. Film examples

      From what i see, Canales offense requires a QB that is willing to take chances to maximize the offense. XL is also the kind of receiver that needs a qb to be risky to bring out his full potential. Its just a matter of if Bryce is gonna be that QB.

      Baker just played how Baker played.... everywhere but here. He is a risk taking gunslinger.  Always has been.  And last year was asked to be what he was.   Geno Smith was the best deep ball passer in the NFL his comeback season.  Wasn't even close that year.  Again, that's the type passer Canales has always been around in the offenses he has been part of.  The pass game that compliments the stubborn run is the deep chunk play pass game.   And that was his first investment with XL.  My continued point, is the same as going into last season.  It's a bad marriage going in.  The QB doesn't fit the scheme.  Again.  Carrol/Fox/Ron....all paired up their boring football with risk taking QBs.  And again, I'm fine if that is where we are going.  It's not my preference but that's not my argument.  I'm saying if we are doing that, we need a QB that matches it.

      I guess you missed the point. His rushing attack was dead last yet his team still performed. That’s not Fox/Rivera ball. His QB also had a career year. Remember the same QB that played for us in the same division and was so bad he was cut?  Carroll coached after Lynch as well. In fact Canales was more involved in the more recent offense with Geno Smith and a good rushing attack. People are taking him wanting a rushing attack and assuming that means we are shutting down our passing attack. Again many of the top offenses like SF, Miami, and Detroit featured strong rushing attacks.
