Something's up....

Armanti being cut today can really only mean 1 of two things off the top of my head

1) The organization is trying to light a fire under the player's asses

2) We are making a trade of some sort. Have you ever heard of a team CHOOSING to roll with only four wide receivers? Two go down in a game and we are screwed. It doesn't matter if he was simply taking up a roster spot, that's what #5 receivers do, they sit on that damn bench 95% of the time.

We COULD be replacing him with a slightly better #5 receiver, but given the low priority, the fact that the new player would have to adjust by learning the system, the additional cap...it seems unlikely. I'd say there may be a significant upgrade coming. thoughts?

something seems up...we have what 3 or 4 roster spots open now...guessing at least one for an OL one for stewart too I believe....so 1-2 spots open and we're down to what 4 WRs now....

Good point on Stewart, but I bet armond smith is cut when he comes back. No need for four rb's and two fb's.

Trading for Nicks or Grodon is what a wise GM would be doing after starting 1-3 and ranking near the bottom on offense.

This is Gettlemans first year as GM. If Jerry Richardson asked him why are we 1-3 what do you think his response will be?

Lol. While I don't think Rivera is the long term answer, the only game he pissed me off in was at Buffalo. Seattle came down to a Dwill fumble and against Arizona our Wrs played like poo and then Cam joined them with help of the oline. Just a total offensive collapse. Steve Smith catches that ball we go up 7-0 different ball game then being up 3-0. Then the fourth down drop really took the wind out of the sails and everything went downhill from there.

      Emanuel McNeil Warren + Jacob Rodriguez

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Given the draft makeup after the top-10 or so, I feel many teams are going to be hoping for trade downs. Which makes downward movement a bit more tricky.  So they may just go for the best impact they see fit and surprise.  I mean, can use someone at all levels of our defense (ILB, DE, S and Slot). Offense need more OL bodies and could use another WR. No way we can be zeroed in on a particular position.  Makes me damn curious to our board and how they’re weighing immediate vs long term impact.  I still see multiple guys rather than positions in play. S: Thieneman, McNeil-Warren ILB: Rodriguez, Allen DL: Faulk, McDonald WR/TE: Saddiq, Cooper, Boston, Conception OL: Freeling, Proctor, Lomu, Iheanachor Heck, even the EDGE group in our range is interesting like Parker. - Then there’s these guys that are in that 19/51 fringe range that seem to be really good fits-Haulcy, J Rod, Golday, etc.

      2026 Win predictions from DraftKings

      I guess I could see it if we got breaks, but we got the breaks this year and it was still 8 wins.   Also I dont see TB crumbling, they are a competent franchise that hit the injury bug last year I dont know what to think about NO so theres that. Atlanta majorly upgraded at coach so there is always something to having a competent grown up leading a team.

      Glad he's coming back but honestly surprised. I guess the new staff convinced him there was going to be PT for him. It was baffling how Hubert never played him. Its not like we were a top 10 type team looking like a contender and had it all figured out. We should've been giving him opportunities. There was no reason not to. Utter lack of bench development and hard headedly running his starters into the ground because he was afraid to go to his bench was an knowing issue with Hubert that he just wasn't growing out of with more HC experience. If you don't play them how are they supposed to develop? And his starters could do no wrong. Didn't matter what they did, they wouldn't get yanked and their playing time wouldn't decrease. But if a bench guy came in and made one mistake he was probably getting buried for three or four games. That's a recipe for your starters playing sloppy and your bench playing tight and scared. Saw it year after year.
