If we get to 4-3 do we make a sneaky trade? 

No, stay the course, add via FA / Draft.

I don't think Corbett can stay healthy long enough to be a starter. 

He's talented enough to keep as a backup, but he's no longer durable enough to stay in full time.

Corbett can firmly stay put exactly where he is. Activate him and keep him right on the bench.

At this point, if they bench Mays there WILL be rioting on Mint street.

Still, having Corbett back as depth is a good thing.

I wouldn't be mad at Corbett starting at RG, but please let Mays continue to play center.

Chuba, Turk, Coker, and JT0 would be a nice boost to say the least.

The Corbett at Center experiment was a flop.

He's a guard, and at this point probably a backup.

BC is playing great as a RG, but cobett can play either OG and C. BC can play all 5 spots and do it well, I lost a bet thinking some team would see he's valued. Glad BC is a panther and I hope he stays a few more years!!

 

He's worth keeping around. Mays can and as been injuries before, that would leave some guy signed off ravens PS. Sure cobett hasn't stayed healthy long enough, but he's still NFL roster worthy even at this stage/age/injuries. 

Before the Cowboys game, I would have said but BC at RT and Corbett at RG once he comes back. After watching how good Nijman played at RT Sunday (granted, the Cowboy's Dline isn't good), Corbett can serve as depth whether Moton can suit up or not.

Not sure that I want my backup being that fragile.  It's like having a spare tire with a hole in it.

I agree with you. Its hard to replace any OLmen that in two week helped a RB get over 210 total yards. BC is out there moving and beasting fools. 

He's just highly valued cause of the 5 spot options. 

 

Still healthy Corbett can cheerlead for the sideline. I mean if you put Corbett in the lineup, how long before he needs replaced via injury?

can we leave Corbett’s window closed?  He awesome year one, but idk if it was the injuries or what, but he seems to have just deteriorated each year since.

I'll be honest.  I'm not sure I want to see any those guys returning right now given what others are presently doing.... minus Coker. 

Hubbard returning likely messes the run game up (I mean, it's going to come down regardless but he still), Tremble and Evans actually are doing well, Corbett seems to make us worse up front, and the D has made some strides. 

I'd like to just keep that whole lot on the shelf this week.

regardless, we are about to learn a lot about Dave Canales this week or next in terms of the ole Wally Pip argument.  Some coaches believe injury shouldn't allow for someone to take your job, good coaches play the best player.

Mays is our Center, end of discussion.

Better than a fragile starter, though

I'm super excited about the guys we're getting back, and fortunately this year, outside of Robert Hunt, we haven't had any season-threatening injuries.

Rico has earned the start, but I am excited to have both available. 

The team is finally turning into the run-first team Canales said he wanted to be.

As for JT Sanders, I think he has lost the most be being out. He is probably our best receiving TE, but with the emergence of Mitchell Evans & with him and Tommy Tremble both absolutely balling in run blocking, it will be hard to fix something that isn't broken.

I'm hoping Turk Wharton can help with our pass rush. We really havent gotten to see him much due to injuries, but we desperately need anyone to provide some pass rush juice, which is what he was brought to do.

I'm the most excited about Jalen Coker returning. Theilen may have been the most clutch last year, but I've watched a lot of film, and Coker was the most consistent WR we had when he was out there last year.  I think he can be an ideal #2 to Tmac. While Coker doesn't have the raw athleticism XL does, his route running, savvy, and overall football IQ simply make him better. 

I think with the fact Coker can play both outside and in the slot will give our pass game more versatility.  We have been running a lot of 2 TE sets, and I think Tmac & Coker should be the primary WRs for 12 personnel.

The other WRs (XL, Tremayne, Renfrow, & Horn) all have roles, but I dont think any of them can fully replace what Coker can do.

I do think Renfrow will be inactive this week if everyone is healthy bc of how valuable Tremayne is for ST and as a run blocker.

So happy that we are playing meaningful football heading into November.

We are still almost certainly a year away, but we are absolutely moving in the right direction
