Garry Williams was going to start a few years ago-blew out his knee in preseason.  However, we were purging the roster then, and paying our core crazy money and ignoring insignificant positions like CB, DT, and G.

 

There are stlll 4 preseason games,  If Williams sucks, we probably cut him too (He makes over $1 m).  Kugbila needs to get his arse out there.

 

What if they like Williams enough at G if they sign a better RT?  Maybe Bell should be nervous, not Williams.

Gotta hope everyone stays healthy this practice. I could see guys trying to play too hard to prove they're not soft in the wake of the Hangartner cut. I imagine it'll be an uncomfortable day for the Panthers.

 

Heard the water boy was bringing a 55 gallon drum . . .

Somewhere in the middle.  Moore is wanting big bucks we (and other teams) want vet minimum. There will be a time somewhere down the road one or the other is going to give in and up or lower the ante.

 

The vet aint getting big bucks and the team isn't getting vet minimum (at least for moore).  Hopefully we'll be the one who bites on giving a modest salary to a Top 5 OG.

2 years, 5 million would only be a million more than hangman. It would also give us two drafts to rebuild our line.

2014-LT 2015- RT or RG if kugbilla isn't cutting it.

    • I just rewatched all the highlights from after Bryce being benched. The Bryce hate needs to calm down a little bit. He showed a ton of potential the back half of the year. Same with Legette. They both made great plays when it mattered and a few mistakes when it counted. If we didn’t have a historically awful defense last year we could have ended even a bit better. Going into a brand new season we should be optimistic at least before game one. 2015 no one expected to go anywhere and the team steam rolled the league. I’m not saying that will happen, but hopefully we made strides to improve on the end of last year. Bryce put both Super Bowl teams in a battle last year and if we had a better D we could have taken them both. So at least look forward to the season and not past the season until it at least begins. 
    • I’m not mad at Moehrig.  He’s great at what he does.  And to be honest, a lot of my favorite safeties in our history were box-first type guys - Maxie, Minter, Mike Mitchell, Chris Harris…  they’re first and foremost objective was to put people on their backs and coverage was secondary.  There is a place for that.  There is a definite need for that.  Physical guys that set the tone.  So cool, we have that in Moerhig. But what we have lacked for the vast majority of our existence is a true free safety that cleans everything up on the back end.  Sometimes they come in the form of a JOAT, like Peppers.  I think he would be a fantastic compliment to Moehrig’s strengths and weaknesses.  If we don’t go after him, I certainly hope Ransom is given the chance to grow and develop in real-time with real game reps, because what he did in preseason was very encouraging to see.  I hope he can grow into that roaming center fielder with a little bit of an edge to him as an enforcer as well.  He has the tools.  In the meantime, adding Peppers would only help.
    • Option 1 is most likely. Even if he kills it this year, it wouldn't be prudent to rush an extension for one good season. If you have to pay him more because you waited another year, then he earned it. And that's OK. Adjust accordingly.
