I’m as bold as anyone when it comes to the draft but this roster really just needs a base hit in the worst way. We’re not far off but they really need a couple impact players to take them over the top.

 

if they do something like this they better be right.

Walker is only a project in your head

He only has 1 season of real playing time, doesn't have a natural position, is too much of a pass rusher to be a true linebacker but isn't big enough to be a true edge rusher.

He's a project, no if's, and's, or but's about it.

Just the fact that some people on here view him as a ILB and others as an edge rusher, says a lot about him being a project.  If you don't fit into a true position at this point (Hunter aside as that's totally different), you're a project, period.

He absolutely could turn into a solid player, but of all the guys we're talking about at 8, he's probably the least likely to make an immediate impact next year, namely because there isn't a natural fit for him yet.

Milroe just ran the third fastest time by a qb ever at his pro day.  QB needy teams? Come on down. We got a spot where you can get Milroe or Dart.  

Hopefully a team thinks they can turn him into Lamar

Milroe also looked like hammered dogshit throwing the ball in Mobile. 

I suspect you will see far less "QB desperate" teams this draft.

Exactly. We've been blowing draft after draft after draft and that shows up in a glaring way when you look at our roster. Just find players. If they turn out to be All Pros, great. But you have to find contributing players in the draft year after year or you're fuged.

      This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
