Here's something to smile about

I'm not smiling. I think we'll be solid for awhile, but i care about a ring, not our team's record for the upcoming years. We need to keep some more veteran star players if we want to keep competing for a superbowl.
To win the Superbowl you need to be in the playoffs. A team that makes them a lot has a good chance at getting hot at the right time. That's pretty much how the Steelers won it a few years back, and the Giants last year.

We will not make the playoffs next year.

We're losing the one guy who can rush the passer.

We may lose our All Pro LT.

Our one explosive offensive weapon is nearing the end of his prime and we have no one waiting in the wings.

We don't have a pick till late in the second round.

No way do we lose both of them. If we can sign one we keep both.

I think we will have to win the South to make the playoffs next year, and that won't happen unless our defense gets a lot better. But our running game should be among the league's best, which will give us a great chance at being the first repeat champion.

We're going to miss Smitty when he's gone, but it doesn't mean we're going to suddenly become doormats.

making the playoffs 1 out of the last 3 years is not a lot.

Yeah, seriously. what the hell. I understand that this isn't a time to be very optimistic, but no need for all the pesimism. We won't lose Pep and Gross and Smith is looking as good as ever.

If we do lose Pep, we'll get a first round pick out of it so come down with all the apocalypse thoughts.

We will probably use the franchise tag on Pep and trade him (which would at least get us some picks), which means Gross goes on the open market.

Losing both is a posibility.

Next year is a rebuilding year.

I think Gross stays if we pay him $TEXAS. I really think Peppers is gone, no matter what we try to do. May as well try to get something for him if he wants out.

When Fox said we were all in this year, Jake took that and threw it all in the toilet.

We now have less picks, and like Delhommey said even more age, and seemingly no one to step up and fill the holes.(as evident by our lack of depth at numerous positions)

Our only glimmer of hope may be to franchise and then trade Peppers for some picks.

    • I want the following: LB - Devin Lloyd (our big money splash) I'm also interested in Nakobe Dean if we go the cheaper route. His size is a concern beside Wallace, but Dean is a Dan Morgan type of alpha leader of the defense. He's often called the heart of the Philly defense and would absolutely bring a swagger and be our field general on defense. We need this so badly and I'd almost rather go with him because Wallace is no guarantee to ever hit his potential, so maybe we go with Dean and find a Wallace replacement in on day 2. EDGE - Boye Mafe (SEA) I think he's a great blend of pass rush prowess, age and experience. We have our potential youngsters in Scourton and Umanmielen, let's add a vet from a successful franchise to bring some heat. Bye bye Wonnum....bye bye Jones. We roll with Mafe-Scourton-Umanmielen TE - Cade Otton (TB) Again, we have youth in this position w/ Sanders and Evans. Sanders is tracking similarly to Ian Thomas (age/stats) and wonder if he will ever be the TE we thought we stole in the 4th round. Evans looks legit, but more of a balanced/blocker. Sign Otton, who Dave is familiar with and save some money by cutting Tremble. Also allows us to roll Otton-Sanders-Evans in 13 personnel WR - Wan'dale Robinson or Rashid Shaheed I wonder if either of these will be priced out of our range based on age and what they bring. We do already have a 5'8" WR with Horn, Jr. so I'd see the argument against Robinson. However, the latter is still only 25 and just hit a 1k yard receiving season with suspect QB play in NY and an elite talent in Nabers on the roster. SEA gave up two '26 draft picks for Shaheed and he has stepped in nicely for the 'Hawks...doubt they let him walk. I also saw Doubs on the FA list and wonder if he'd be what we need. We need a separator that can be a deep threat to keep defenses honest. TMac/Coker are the bigger receivers, but not necesarily guys that scare a defense....would Doubs be that guy? SAF I'd like an upgrade here and wonder if we wait out the FA period until the latter stages if someone like Ar'Darious Washington or Jaylinn Hawkins lingers and there's a discount later in the game. Nick Scott can F off and I hope he never suits up for us again.   
    • I just can’t see Morgan as being under the threat of unemployment at any time this upcoming season.  As little as ‘winning’ the division and making the playoffs impressed me, I think to Tepper it was like nectar of the Gods. A milestone for him. And the team did play well in the Wild Card. That has to buy him 2027. I would think. Unless we start 0-8 or something. Which I don’t believe will happen. 
    • I'm not arguing that Linderbaum isn't a better player than Mays, just that the difference isn't as much as people might think. At least not compared to the difference in cost between the two players will be. In any event, I don't expect the Ravens to let him get to the open market.
