http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1462254-2013-nfl-free-agents-studs-that-will-be-most-sought-after-impact-players Bowe might be a FA. Plus Bears Pro Bowl DT is getting a lot of head way as well. Would love see the new GM go after him if we can clear some cap some how. BTW when does the TV deals kick in for the teams salary cap to increase it. It is 2014 or what?

i'm sure we'll be able to afford him with all of the not money we have

Yes we might not have the cap right now. But I'm sure the new GM will work his magic when he comes in day one. That is what he is been hired for. He will know to deal with the cap and be able to scout and fine big time talent for this team.

I'm sure there will be plenty of money to go after at least one top flight FA if we want to after we cut/trade/restructure Deangelo, Beason, Gamble, Gross, and whoever else we decide to make a change with

Seriously, how much money do you think we guys have... The only players we will be able to afford are special teams guys.

Signing one big name FA isn't at all out of the question, we'll free up space, they can have a small first year salary and give them a nice sized signing bonus that then is spread out over the length of the contract.

If we don't do something to drastically improve our WR corps going into next year I'm going to be really pissed, we can't wait for Smitty to be washed up to get that new #1 WR

Am I the only one that thinks Bowe wouldnt be a big upgrade over LaFell? KC has no one else to throw the ball to, of course his number are decent. He is a better jump ball wr, but thats about it. If steve goes we are left with two relatively slow possession receiver types. You need a combo, if you cant get a combo then you go speed. If we are being realistic Id rather have Mike Wallace.

I've seen quite a few Cheif fans who don't want Bowe back. I'll call it Peppers Syndrome.

If we were going to go after a WR Jennings would be near the top of my list. However, I'd rather draft an eventual replacement for Smith.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
