I’m prepared to suck again but hoping for 5 wins. I know it will be hard to do sadly.  I just don’t want to see any dumb contracts handed out. Also really hope to hit on 2-3 future starters in the draft. I’m not against one more year of Jackson or Sanders then move in next year for dead cap purposes.  I try hard to be optimistic just is getting tougher and tougher.  I was really hoping Mays or Zavala could take a guard spot to save some money to spend elsewhere but just can’t seem to do it. And LoL at our TE situation.

Young's average time before a pass is 2.89 seconds, 10th-longest. He has held onto the ball an average of 2.84 seconds when blitzed, sixth-longest.

This dosent fit their narrative that Young wasnt given a chance. 

He is supposed to have 5 seconds of pocket time and WRs with 5 yards of separation.

Exactly. Also it needs to be 5 yards of separation within 20 yards of the line of scrimmage so he can make an accurate pass

The salary cap can be easily manipulated and it makes sense we do that to get cap room. Otherwise Burns has leverage in negotiating knowing we need his cap space which will be significant. Expect Moton to be restructured  and suddenly we have cap space for what we want. If we show him we can operate without his space then signing him is more likely.  Sure we might kick the can a little bit down the road out of necessity,  but we don't need to tank this year.

Oof. Moton and Christensen are the only two guys on our roster who could conceivably fit.

That is what I was going to say---I thought Bozeman was not good last year, but it could have been due to being flanked by reserve guards. Corbett played about 4 games and was not good. 

If we go with a wide zone BS, I would think that Ekwonu could become a G--but I am only speculating

Final pearl of wisdom:  I think the secret to free agency is signing a player with a question mark (coming off a surgery, following a bad year, etc) and doing your homework.  A signing like Sanders, for example, from a team the a dual threat QB and a great OL, was stupid.    I hated it at the time and we are paying dearly for it.  Hurst?  I'd rather have Tremble in the game.  Now, we did this with Chark and it did not pan out.  Not that bad of a risk, honestly.  Thielen was a good signing.  He panned out, but they were under the impression we would be competitive in 2023.  Time to refocus.  Build the OL, draft weapons, and move on.  Trade Burns if it helps--if it hurts the team, keep him.  duh.

at #33 i think you take the kid out of Georgia as he checks all of the boxes Ladd McConkey.you look at what the kid can do &  he is probably one of the more complete players in this draft at wR  as he can block well exceptional route runner play him outside or inside & even mix it up a little out of the backfield.

I think we just have to hope that sanders was bad due to lingering injuries and bad OL play.

 

That Bryce will look capable.

We get another receiver and minho develops.

And OL play and depth improves.

 

That should get us a couple more TDs a game at least and we could look at least competent going into next year.

      Xavier Legette is the face of the NFL at the Kentucky Derby

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.
