Complete overhaul. Mooney or Gabe Davis as FA WR target. Jonnu Smith was recently released so bring him in at TE. Then in draft interior depth at guard and Center. Also don't be scared to take a tackle at 33. Add a another RB in FA or later rounds of draft. This RB free agency is ridiculous. Lots of big names but look for 2nd tier guy that's being overlooked. RB, TE, two offensive lineman and at least two WR's. I know we have limited draft capitol so FA needs to be explored.

I've given up on the hope that he will be there at 33. Setting sights on Van Prann or Frazier now. Not at 33 but maybe 65.

I think they reach for JJ McCarthy. Cheap rookie contract etc etc. Just a QB away they might think. In other NFC South predictions. The saints take offensive lineman that we also coveted. Lastly the Buccs steal a WR to replace Evans that we also were looking at.

We got to let the dominos fall. So many needs that BPA is the way. I'm not tied to WR as the pick. If a top OL, CB, or DL is there at 33 you do it. Honestly RB, Safety or ILB are the few positions I would be disappointed by. We need help everywhere almost.

Not a bad situation for Caleb. Not really, the FO is killing every off season. Roster will be young and full of high picks. DJ Moore is legit and they can add another potential top tier WR at 9. He is being drafted into a solid rebuild.

Craig Carton is not relevant, and never will be. Bald headed geek just like Tepper. Going after the low hanging fruit. In defense of Bryce our interior Oline consisted of backups at best because of injuries and the WR Corp underperformed. Yeah I'm coping LOL not really.

Goal was to make the team more physical. Kingsley could fit either guard or maybe even LT. Sweat is a old school massive NT. Allen is a bruiser RB. I think a two headed monster running game could help Young. Then weapons. Coker has outside WR speed and size. Theo and Jackson could work the middle of the field.

I vote crazy. We need to improve depth and upgrade. Shuffling the line makes sense. Try BC at LT, slide Iky over to guard and Center should be a target in the draft. If Jackson-Powers is there at 33 I would take him over WR even. I don't think he will be though. Dream scenario for me is a trade down from 33 to somewhere in between 40 to 48 gaining a pick around 69 and 76. With those picks and 65 adding say a Van Pran, Mahogany and WR. Then at 101 TE or double dip at WR. Offense needs a lot of help.

Jones is a winner. Why would he want to come here and lose? Almighty dollar? Nah he got his pick of destination. One where can win and make money. Bengals, Ravens, Texans, and Bears etc. We need to draft our own Jones.

Same. I wanted scoot but I'm on board.

This is win. Gordon never fit on the court and wasn't on it enough.

It's a varied group of WR's. Their are several skill sets, strengths and styles. Also a couple athletic freaks. Pearsall seems like a Keenan Allen comparison. Or new school St Brown. We need to throw two darts at that draft board. Fingers crossed Tez and Pearsall would be a good combo.

Nothing is written in stone. E is obviously an up and coming coach but after this past year I would not be surprised if he wants to jump ship. I'd like to keep him and keep Luvu and Brown long term. Sticking with the 3-4 and adding pieces to that. Luvu should be a pass rushing edge style linebacker instead of the inside he was forced into by injuries. Brown as a DE beside a legit NT also would be interesting. So NT and a DE that fits a 3-4 would be targets. I would not be opposed to going to a 4-3 if we lose Envero, Luvu and Burns in the off season actually. I don't know what coach would be available. If we switch defensive schemes (again) then the draft strategy switches to adding a MLB, a pass rushing DT beside Brown and a pass rusher at DE to replace Burns. I'd rather stay the course with E but...

Watched a bit of the drills today. Oline is of particular interest. As well as sleeper WR prospects need to be watched. Stocks will rise and fall cause of these showcases. I just hope we have competent talent evaluators there to take notes.

Somebody needed to write a piece. Silly off season fluff. No different than me posting on here except this guy gets paid to do so. Sadly I can't see a team giving us a 1st for Burns. We have NO leverage. He doesn't want to be here and Fitterer screwed negotiations up. At this point a 2nd round pick is the goal. Trade down from 33 hoping someone has a hard on for a QB and a draft day trade of Burns for another 2nd is my dream. The top 100 picks is the meat of this draft ( it often is ) we need multiple picks in this area and rebuild the roster. Our pick at 101 is not bad either. If a situation arises where we can group our later rounds together for a higher pick is an option too. Burns is not a raven. A Ram maybe. A Viking maybe. But the Ravens can't really think he would move the needle. He didn't do it here either.

Trade down to acquire more picks and In this scenario we tag and trade Burns to Minnesota for the 42nd pick and guess who was there in this draft? Cooper Beebe. Dude, Powers and Cooper could help rebuild the oline quickly. Sweat and Robinson are pieces for the 3-4.

Did burns play under the tag last year? I felt like it was just his last year under contract so.. Franchise tag is on the table. Higgins on the other hand could also be tagged.

I'm hoping we can get either a 2nd this year and future 2nd or 3rd. Or maybe a player and later pick. If Cinci would be willing to trade Higgins and a 3rd or 4th this year it would be enticing. Getting Higgins would open up that 33 pick for something other than WR. Maybe a pass rusher.

This guy right here is exactly what we need. He also has decent hands.

I'd like to see what BC can do at LT. Remember it was our previous genius coaches that moved him to guard then proceeded to draft Icky (whose run blocking not pass blocking was his best trait ) to play LT. Just a thought. What if we can trade Burns for a mid 1st or even at this point a 2nd and future pick. I see Minnesota as trade partners. They trade 42 and a future pick for Burns. We go WR at 33. Then take a Powers- Johnson, Frazier or Van Pran at 42. Then turn around at 65 and take a guard. Maybe a Mahogany, Kiran A, or Delmar Glaze. Just throwing prospects I like out there but we need to do a ridiculous amount of due diligence on improving the oline and WR room. LT - BC LG- Rookie, Boze or Icky OC - Rookie or Boze RG - Rookie, Boze or Icky RT - Moton Just move the pieces around till it fits. Boze can play guard. Want to try Icky at guard. BC might fit at tackle. Get a versatile rookie or two too. Later rounds we try and find diamonds in the rough at WR and RB. This a deep class for both those skill positions. In FA we add another WR. Hope Mingo puts it all together this year. WR room Mingo, 2nd round Rookie, Mid tier FA, AT, Smith-Marsette and a later round rookie to develop. Fixing this offense is priority. I know "but Young sucks" maybe not,maybe just maybe we need to overhaul the scheme and personnel to fit him.

Give Brown and Luvu extensions. Let Burns test the market or trade him. We are not ready for those big contracts at pass rusher. Heck we don't even know who our DC is gonna be.

This is not a top heavy RB class but it's deep. I don't see 1st round guy. WR I think we need two. RB one bigger guy to pound the rock on early downs. TE I like Tremble but we need someone to replace Hurst and Thomas. That's 4 picks in a depleted collection this year. So one WR needs to come from FA. That's three targets in the draft at skil.
