How bad do we need a DE?Would we franchise Johnson?

I find some of these mock drafts interesting.It seems have shifted from Fairley to Bowerers as our first pick.Though Charles Johnson played well he is a FA and I guess we could franchise him but I do not know if we can count on sighning him.I know we have a need at DT and that will not change.

CJ shouldnt be let to be on the market, I dont think that we'll let him go. I dont see Brayton getting resigned, and Hardy and Brown switching off opposite CJ would be decent. It could be a need, but not as big as the others we have, IMO...

I don't know if taking Bowers is a sign we are not bringing back CJ. Everybody in the nfl wants pass rushers and if you can have two that would be ideal. This defense was at it's best when Rucker and Peppers or Lathon and Green were creating havoc off the edge. I would be all for a line with Bowers and Johnson.

For some reason.. I'm beginning to see us getting Bowers to start alongside Johnson with Hardy and Brown as the backups. Although I don't see it as a need. Though that would be messed up since we gave up a First for Brown already.. Man this draft can go so many different ways.. I want Charles Johnson back though. Regardless of who we draft.

Will we franchise him? No we won't. He will be a restricted free agent so we can tender him and have right to match any salary he may receive. Or get a first and third for him if we don't match it.

I think it depends on the new CBA. Players might get rid of restricted free agency in exchange for the longer season. I think we keep him regardless of the new system though.

    • And its two fold from there, we knew we were going to stink next year, we knew he wasnt going to play right away and we knew the 2025 rb class was absolutely fuging loaded.  So none of it made a lick of sense
    • Here for the lively debate but don’t devolve into “you don’t know the game” stuff. ..with that PSA over, I lean more to the it was a mistake camp myself.  It wasn’t a good move. Many people reference Frazier but it is was a few guys. I thought Sainristil would have been perfect for us. Although I will say, I don’t mind taking RBs high depending on the talent. It was him being injured and his talent relative to the other RBs in his tier that makes me less than thrilled about it. 
    • If you're insinuating Bryce Young is the only player people here have been critical of we don't even need to discuss any further because folks who have actually seen the threads knows that's factually incorrect. That's the issue and where the disconnect begins. You perceive an honest assessment and basic straightforward acknowledgment that while we can like the player on a personal level ultimately the pick was a mistake given what we know now and the other prospects that were available. None of that is the personal slight you perceive it to be. Honest discussion is not doom and gloom. If someone wants to reject the reality that is front of them in favor of another that is more convenient for their POV that is certainly their prerogative. What I'm trying to tell you is you are never going to find the dialogue you seek as long as this is your basis for the framework of discussion about our team. I'm not asking you to leave. I do believe you bring legitimate value here. I'm simply offering you an alternative if you insist on rolling out this same approach when the season rolls out. Because although optimism is high right now sooner or later we might hit a bump in the road. And conversations will likely get the opposite of glowing positivity. But that's alright. That's the rollercoaster of sports fandom. We'll survive.
