Anyone know what round the guys we have met with are projecting to be taken?

I would not be afraid to gamble on Coker and set a precedent in this situation. Nothing crazy, but something that would make him think twice before he made his final decision.

He may choose that route. But it would not prevent me from trying to work out a long-term contract.

That's why I say offer him a new contract at the rate I suggested. If he were to out perform it then we can discuss redoing it or trade him.

He doesn't have it until 2027. He has to take what the Panthers offer for 2026. After that he has leverage.

They may indeed. But he's taking a huge gamble on staying healthy and being able to repeat his production for 2 additional seasons inorder to get a shot at a much bigger paycheck.

I would give him a 3 yr $15M with 12 guaranteed.

I'm tuning in just to watch the defensive players. We need someone at every level of the defense.

He's not going to make it in the nfl. He doesn't have the drive or desire to be anything other than what he is. A waste of a roster spot.

I agree. At the moment he's our best receiver and he should get a new contract fitting his production. Pay the man.

The first two picks should be DT and OT. According to Daniel Jeremiahs top 50 this class is heavy on wr and O line, namely OT. I'm not sure if that helps us with edge rusher in round 1 as he turns around and has only 2 wrs taken in the top 20 with us taking 1 of them when he has 5 ranked in the top 20. He's all over the place with his mock draft so it's hard to take any rankings seriously at the moment.

I would take Lee Hunter over a wr.

Desperate teams do stupid moves like this. But it's not my money so have at it.

I bitch about the defense and offense. They both need work.

I'm indifferent to it. I would rather they draft a guard over paying him a bunch of money to get his ass handed to him by better defenses.

That would only ensure the exit of Dave and his merry men at the end of next season. The Bucs will battle NO for the division next season while Dave struggles to get 6 wins.

Your last sentence is the only one that matters. Until the team is ready to give up and move on you will have to watch him out there struggling to make 200 yrds/gm.

How can you forget Nick Scott's blown coverages and missed tackles? He negated any positive that Jackson may have contributed.

Don't be surprised if it doesn't go down pretty close to that except the RB in the first. I would have to see the group behind him.

I think the improvement came with Jackson's contribution. He had a really good season and it made the whole group look better. Horn was relatively quiet all season.

The theme for the offseason last year, by the teams own mouths, was to improve their tackling and bring in player's that could stop the run. What happened? I sure haven't noticed much improvement. Only DB knows how to tackle and if f not for him it would be on par with last years defense.

Now try doing it taking bpa instead of need.

I'm skeptical of it being a talent problem and more of a scheme issue. But we will see next season when more players are added. But with that being said, he has managed to out coach Canales as a whole this season.

I was hoping you guys would win that game. It's a shame they way it went against you.

His wife will take over, if she hasn't already.
