Personally, I don't care to pick outside the top 5 at this point. Joeckel or Star I think are in range, but pulling out the stops to get a couple more wins do no good. Start the young guys, see what you have in them and start next season now. Foles starting for the Eagles for the rest of the season is smart for them.

We will obviously have some new starters because of injury, but get some new guys in there and use these last games, with live bullets to better next years team.

I would even say, let Anderson play the second half on the upcoming games.

Why not put Pilares in? Who knows?

Might change all the WR talk or at least make is less of a priority. If you are not planning on using Anderson next season, then let him go and do not put him in. At that point, who knows what we have as a backup.

I said play him in the second half, not the whole game. This season is over, you have your Cam jersey that you sleep in each night, and it does not mean losing culture if everyone knows what you are doing.

I'd like to see Gettis actually play. Also work in Joe Adams in the slot. To be brutally honest, the only team we have a chance at beating the way we're playing is the Raiders. And even that is looking bleak. We should have no problem getting a top 5 pick.

There are so many directions we could go with a Top 5 pick.

LT, CB, DT..

2nd round pick also.. RG, WR, S..

We aren't that close to competing unless we pick up some quality FAs. Enough with these Nakamura-type pickups.

I would adjust that to say..

first round: best available OT, DT, OG

second round: best available OT, DT, OG, S

We should be 100% focused on the LOS. CBs are a dime a dozen.

If i'm not mistaken, PIlares is on IR (Rivera made that move to bring Gettis to the roster)

You might be right come to think of it, the point was to get as many guys out there as possible. We have so many folks wanting to draft a WR first, but Adams, Pilares, Gettis are still unknowns. And with Murphy and Lafell, we might be stocked at WR. But again, who knows. Put them out there now

    • This is where I'm at. Dowdle is a feel good story and glad he's proving his doubters wrong. I just don't see how we keep our OL intact (which is the right move) and spend on another RB after giving Chuba his money. Though the odds are against him, I do think Brooks can still be our RB2 next year..and if he stays healthy, our longterm RB1. Having the full offseason with no pressure to try and come back like last year will help. I'm also happy to see he and TD have been connecting.  If this team is smart, they go into next year with Chuba/Brooks/ETN and sign a Dowdle-light version in FA at minimum cost. Chuba is in his prime and a full offseason to fully recharge will only benefit him more. Dowdle is unfortunately a luxury item I don't think we can spend our money on. We still have other areas of need that we have to improve on the defensive side of the ball. 
    • last time they loaded the box, shut down the run and forced BY9 to beat them, we saw the result of that. So what can we do this time to beat them? I suspect it's going to require a lot of short / intermediate passes with TE play to help
    • Floyd Mayweather Jr. made hundreds of millions off realizing this. He was an exciting boxer in his early days but watching his dad and uncle struggle with the effects of taking thousands of punches to the head he realized he was skilled enough to good guys without putting himself at risk and he'd just wait for other elite guys to lose a step before facing them. The whole WWE-esque "Money" persona was built around the realization that it doesn't matter if they're watching to see you win or watching hoping you'll lose, all that matters is that they're watching. Force them to love you or hate you, just make sure they care enough to tune in. We had a similar situation with Cam. Everyone felt some kinda way about Cam. You couldn't find many NFL fans who were neutral on Cam Newton. Is was love or hate but either way it was must see TV.
