Hope Peppers either gets the fug out of Dodge freeing up 17 miilion in cap space or comes in and signs a cap friendly extension.

Doesn't matter now. There really are no good backup o-linemen out there to be had. Face it. We are stuck with what we have and any other team's rejects.

Eventually, when teams start making painful cap cuts having bucks in the Free Agent war chest would be optimal.

Whenever the Cap hammer falls good players will be available.

I am still worried about our DLINE

We have a VERY CAPABLE OL... The need for me is in the DLINE.

This is the area where we had the biggest problems, YET WE ADDED NO ONE.

I like Meeks, but honestly he hasent proven ANYTHING YET.

We know we can rush for TD's, but right now we are still giving up 300 yards and 30 points a game.

Our backups left cause they all got offered better jobs. Can't blame them. The guys behind our starting 5 are unproven, but everyone is at one point. Would like to have some veteran backups, but we have a good line coach, and talent. I'll let them do their thing.

And stop blaming Peppers for our FA period. get a clue people.

      No one way to do it, it does appear that with the bigger draft picks of the last 5 years…..majority haven’t steered clear of young QBs on the roster being their hopeful guy. Especially past their rookie seasons but even some the biggest ones have had it early.   As far as Andy Dalton, the two young guys he has “mentored”…..have had very rough NFL starts.  Which really ask the why the heck is Dalton here.   He doesn’t really check any box.  No young potential.  Can’t step in and win.  And his mentor track record with Fields and now Bryce is bad

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      I had thought the Panthers might let him play out his contract this year and hope he stays healthy. If not draft a left tackle and move Ekwonu to right tackle.

      Frankly, if most teams in the NFL lose their starting QB for a significant amount of time, they're screwed. The fantasy is that one has a future Tony Romo or a Nick Foles that can carry a stacked team. The reality is that you might get roughly 3~5 games out of your backup before it all falls apart. Remember all of Peyton Manning's backups? Utterly terrible. Speaking of backup QB's, Raiders may need one. https://www.nfl.com/news/raiders-qb-aidan-o-connell-suffered-fractured-wrist-in-preseason-finale-expected-to-be-out-6-8-weeks
