depending on the coaching staff, we should probably move, cut, trade some guys that happen not to fit our scheme.

if we run the 4-3 again, then folks like E Brown and Norwood should go to another team. Norwood might stick due to special teams utilization, but no use paying Brown.

I would say trade him to the Ravens who seemingly wasted a pick on Sergio Kindle. Bad neck and now bad character issues.

the other third comes from Peppers compensatory pick

think we could get a 3rd for him so he could play OLB in a 3-4 which is where he is better suited?

If so, that would give us 3 third rounders this year.

the one i hate the most but the one that makes the most sense is trading D Williams to Green Bay for a third also, giving us 4 third rounders.

This would certainly help solidify some areas and also give us ammo to move up into the second if need be

We paid too much for Brown to trade him and Norwood will need time to bulk up.

Norwood would probably be better in a 3-4 but he needs time to adjust. I think they were planing to use him like a 3-4 backer anyway when we go to over/under schemes.

We just need some freaking defensive tackles so the QB can't step up in the pocket.

Sticking with mistakes is part of the problem.

I agree we paid too much for Brown, especially if he never sees the field.

just thought it better to turn a 2nd round mistake that never gets on the field into a third rounder who might have a chance.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
