Eh, it's a rental ring/hired mercenary ring. Would I take it? Sure, but it hits different when an organization builds the roster the right. Given the choice, I think most fans would like to see a ring won as the fruition of team building the correct way. This is the NFL, not the NBA...screw creating 'super rosters' of temporary hit-men.

Lol, at the Rams! They sold out for that Super Bowl win and just one season removed, they blowing it completely up! Their cut list is loooong and it's going to get even longer!!

This one of the moves I anticipate happening because obviously we turned down offers for him, so he' snot going anywhere and an extension frees up about $12M in cap space this season.

TY Hilton would make sense on a veteran minimum. He may not be the player he once was, but he's intimately familiar with Reich's offense and could be a great 'coach on the field' type of player. Even our current WR coach has to get acclimated to this scheme.

Go with the Jimmy Johnson Cowboys plan and get our version of the triplets this draft and let the grow together. Quads would even be better as we need the TE too. Snag at least one veteran FA to be the leader/voice in the WR room.

OLB- Burns, Chinn (Haynes, Barno) ILB- Shaq, Luvu, (Smith) NT- FA, draft pick, (McCall) DE- Brown, FA, YGM, draft pick CB- Jackson, Henderson CB-Horn, Taylor SS-Woods, (re-sign Burris Or Franklin cheap) FS- FA, (draft pick) Nickle- FA Chinn is going to have to add some weight, but I think he will do better on the outside than inside. He can drop in coverage and also see him doing better against OTs/TEs than the interior guys. I don't agree with trading him, he's too good of a player. We have the staff to find him a home and max out his potential.

Pipe dream, but I'd take it!

It's possible, but it takes two to tango. There still will be one more QB, assuming it will be AR. I'm not a fan, but he'd still be there assuming he's not one of the first three drafted.

If none of the 3 QBs grades significantly higher than the others, it totally makes sense.

Trade back to #4 and recoup some draft capital. We still get one of the 3 QBs. This isn't that difficult folks.

I called it a 'coordinated QB market correction.' I'm surprised members of the Browns brass hasn't found severed horses heads in their beds or mysteriously gone missing. They pissed off all the League owners with that Watson contract. Heck, even Tepper--QB hard up David Tepper-- wouldn't fully guarantee the contract even though the total money was said not to be that far off from Cleveland's offer.

I know Atlanta says they are not interested at this time, but we shall see. Also, a team sports talk radio said keep an eye is just a short drive down the road in D.C.

Thank goodness. Sorry, anyone trying to get in Deshaun Watson's contract neighborhood is smoking something. The Browns fugged the QB market for the next several years by giving Pervy Rubdown such a insane contract. Actually called out a Clemson fan on that just this afternoon. He said "Can you believe the ridiculous money average QBs like Carr and Geno Smith are getting?" I said you have to thank that Clemson alumni Deshaun Watson for that. You should have seen his face, lol!

Well, well, well apparently I'm not the only one that thinks Brissett is the likely veteran QB the Panthers sign. I've only been saying this since Reich's first day.

Too expensive for a backup and too much cap savings to keep Elflein around.

If we re-sign Bozeamn, we are looking strictly at depth and that can be had cheap. Mays can fill in at RG until Corbett returns.

Nah, we are on the hook for that one. The best result is designate Ian a June 1 cut. In that scenario, we roughly break even this this year, but save cap space in 2024.

Called it. Elflein next and Haynes is a potential cut too. Now we are in a 3-4, he's likely safe.

Called this one. https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/2023/03/06/panthers-report-plan-release-lb-damien-wilson/ Next up, Elflein.

Could be smoke with all this move up talk and we move back and take Hooker later in the first round. Perhaps we could move back up into the back end of the first round and take him there, taking BPA at #9. Either of those scenarios I like better than moving up. I mean, everyone wants a rookie QB this year, right? So they should be happy drafting Hooker.

Imagine we get to keep all our picks too? That's insane!

Yup and we still can draft a QB next season too. People are so damn desperate for a QB now that three 1st rounders, hell the next decade of 1st rounders, could be on the table. Musf Hov Muh Rouky Qartarbock!!!!

Everyone expected this to get done. That's the reason hardly any mocks had Seattle drafting QB even though one would have in all likelihood been available. The amount though? Ew wee mane did they overpay for ole Geno.

Did it matter to the Jets, Browns, Bears, 49ers, Jets (part deux), Giants etc, etc, etc...? You can cherry pick all you want, I ain't biting. You play a guy IF he's ready. Stroud and Young could be, be I'm not sold on them. Levis or AR will fall flat on their face if they start day 1. They aren't ready.

Absolutely not. So you are want to lose games while the rookie gets his feet wet? I mean, if you want to get a QB next year too, I guess accumulating loses makes sense.
