I feel no need to protect Bryce from his faults.

Not sure that part is wholly a front office issue.

If he keeps falling into the trap of tunnel vision then we need a new QB. Build the best roster you can and if the QB isn't properly utilizing it then stop this mess of protecting Bryce from his faults and from competition and being in real NFL QB talent.

Should be cheap and probably doesn't take WR off the board as a potential mid to late round pick. He's not here to start. He's here to push for those 3-5/6 spots and push XL and Horn. T-Mac and Coker are the outside starters. Throw bodies onto the field in camp and let them sort it out to fill our the rest of the depth chart.

I think the Ravens pulled a real shady deal here. Hammer out that Crosby trade knowing he's still recovering from that minor procedure then still go after Hendrickson. If they land Hendrickson, just fail Crosby's physical and get your picks back. If you swing and miss you still have Corsby coming via trade. I'd be very wary of dealing with this Ravens front office moving forward.

Based on what I saw in the playoffs, Will Campbell gotta be rock bottom, right? LOL

I think I'd rather take a chance on BC bouncing back from injury

Yikes.

Gotta be a failed physical, right? Nothing else makes sense.

A Twitter account with 116 followers quoting a Twitter account with 800 followers is not a "source".

Yeah, there are several posters who don't think TE is a need at all because Canales doesn't use them. I mean, given our TE roster of course our TE usage in the passing game is going to be limited. We have a roster full of third stringers.

Makes sense. Seems like an old school Steelers power RB.

All for it. Dude looks like a difference maker even if it's just on special teams.

But I was told by the Huddle that Canales is the modern day Mike Martz and treats TEs as an undersized third OT?

At #19? No. There are no first round center prospects in this draft. There rarely are and we definitely don't need a developmental OG in the 1st who will almost certainly be a backup barring injury for at least a year or two.

And Robertson from Baylor is basically another Pickett.

I'm concerned that the primary one we've been tied to is another noodle arm. It really feels like we're trying to avoid bringing in someone who can make throws that Bryce can't and that is just absolutely bizarre.

Sure. Sign or draft a backup QB in the mid to late rounds with actual NFL caliber physical tools that might be able to push Bryce. We've signed another QB who doesn't have an NFL arm and the mid to late round rookie we've been tied to is another guy whose main concern is NFL arm strength.

We're definitely making moves as if we are.

A career backup coming off of a major injury, I can't imagine his value is much if anything over vet min. For vet min or not much more I'd be all for bringing him back. He knows the system, he's familiar with his OL teammates, and he's well acclimated to being that versatile OL backup. We shouldn't be counting on him to return to form but I'd be all for giving him that opportunity at a value contract.

Just win. It's gonna be hard as long as we remain steadfastly committed to Bryce. Signing another noodle armed QB and seemingly zeroing in on another noodle armed late rounder is not encouraging. I don't know why we seem obsessed with QBs who lack an NFL arm. The only way I can make it make sense is we don't want someone in camp making Bryce's arm look bad in comparison. I just don't get it. When Jake was our starter if you didn't know any better and just went to watch a camp practice you would've tabbed Wienke as our starter ten times out of ten. He was the one who looked the part and was slinging frozen rope tight spirals all over the field but come game day Jake was that dude. Dude's are gonna dude. Stop being afraid to hurt Bryce's fee fees.

Oh please, bad teams have been gobbling up free agents for years. Every guy talks about wanting to go to a winner but the vast majority end up signing on the dotted line for the highest offer made. Don't delude yourself into thinking we're a sought after destination for someone looking to win. I mean we're in the midst of eight consecutive losing seasons but win the worst division in the league by default and it makes some fans think we've arrived.

Cuts wouldn't scare me near as much as "restructures".

I think we're about to see some serious Hurney

Still wouldn't be mad about it if we did. Not 1st/2nd, but one in the 1st or 2nd then another somewhere in the mid-rounds. This draft is setup for it IMO.
