Lafell will take a small contract....he can produce at times and his blocking as a WR is undervalued in our Off by the public...Ginn for sure...Mitchell too...Hardy looks like we'll have to let walk....too many big contracts coming in the following year....and we have a few other holes we can fill with his big cap number that he will request.  KEEP POUNDING!

Is there anyway we can get Johnson and Johnson. Andre and Chris?

Andre could be exactly what Boldin is to Kap to Cam.

AJ is a year younger than Boldin. Draft two receivers still though, let them learn from Johnson and Smitty and have a solid rotation going.

If you would have Asked me this question last week I would have said no, have to get younger. But Johnson still has "it" like Boldin. This would also allow Smitty to work the slot. Plus Johnson is a guy like Smitty that Cam could trust from day 1

We need one of those guys who excels at getting open in the middle of the field.  Doesn't have to be 6'4" or run a 4.4, just a guy who understands getting open and can do it regularly. Somebody who can bail out Cam consistently when nothing down field is available, even if its just 8-10 yards completions.  Olsen has kind of evolved into that guy but if we could get a WR who might make someone miss occasionally it might add another element to the offense.  We will also need to have an offensive philosophy that allows us to utilize such an individual

I wouldn't re-sign Ginn or Hixon. I'd keep LaFell as a 4th WR. Draft a receiver and sign someone like Kenny Britt.

 

I would keep Ginn as a returner and 4-5th receiver and offer to pay him accordingly.  If he isn't cool with that then let him go.  I can't imagine Hixon coming back.  If we could end up with Ginn/Lafell as our 4-5 receivers with SS, one high draft pick and one decent FA as our 1-3 that would be a definite upgrade if the new guys pan out.

Ginn, Edelman, and Nicks. Postpone WR for another year. Fix the line in the draft. Best LT in 1st. A safety (mikell is old and I'm not too sold on Lester although I love the upside) or corner in the second. Then look to CB/double dip OT in 3rd.

Have to move on from Deangelo this off-season. Despite the Cap ramifications we need that contract off the books moving forward.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      And once again I showed you it’s been pretty even. We spent 2nd and 3rd rounders this past draft on edge rushers. No one’s going to sit here and do the math on a draft value chart etc. the only reason I even entertained this was because you said we’ve spent nothing on defense when that simply isn’t true. It also didn’t help we traded our ONLY WR worth a damn to trade up for Bryce soo… And this is kind of the issue with the anti Bryce crowd. This crowd tends to blame him for the trade up. I was team Stroud. Had the panthers not taken Young the only other QB they were going to take was Richardson. So your issue should be with Tepper, Morgan, Fitterer not Bryce.  Bryce is who he is and it was pretty obvious who he was during the draft process. Bryce is slowly developing into that guy most thought he’d be. Give him a WR like Jamo and this offense as a whole would improve greatly.  Anyone thinking he was the next Pat Mahomes or Josh Allen is clearly slow. Bryce was always going to need pieces around him much like EVERY other QB Burrow has Chase and Higgins and they’ve done nothing. After losing in AFC Championship in 2022, Burrow is 17-15. QB’s need a team around them It’s why a Jalen Hurts led Eagles team dismantled a Pat Mahomes led KC team in the SB Imo the QB’s doing the most with the least up until this year have been Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson  This year it’s Drake Maye and Josh Allen  Outside of the 3-5 elite type QB’s I’m not really sure what people expect here. Is Bryce ever going to be in that elite category? Nope. Should we punt on Bryce and keep swinging? I don’t think so. Should we keep swinging while hanging onto Bryce? Yeah but I don’t know what that looks like This team as a whole isn’t very good. Offense and defense and that’s the simple truth

      I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years.

      We need to hope this scenario plays our next week he fails with pressure…what that means with Evero, is beyond me
