Wait...are we arguing about Hurney sucking? I could've sworn it was about you saying Hurney was killing our future cap....? 

You were the one that brought up lifting.

FS?  Well, this is our biggest hole right now--Gaulden is probably going to nickel, not FS.  Searcy is a liability, a fringe starter.  We need a fast, smart, hitter.  I swear, I think  we are going to get Rapp in round 2 if he is still there.

Rapp is a football guy thru and thru, simply is a player. Always knew he would test poorly because he did so in highschool and isn't an impressive athlete. He just knows how to play the game BUT a Rapp/Reid safety tandem will get you destroyed in the passing game. 

Extending Reid took Rapps safety skill set off the board IMO. Rapp might grade out better than other safeties but he's not the type of safety we need with Reid around for a few years.

Marty, what about DT?

100% agreed. I like Rapp as a player, but not as a running mate with Reid. That's an '80 safety combo in a completely different era of football.

Smart move. There were stretches of 2018 where Love was the team's second-best iDL.

All the other stretches, he was our BEST iDL.

Reid got 3 years also.

True. 

At what turned out to be a very reasonable price. Add another win to Hurndog.

Marty has learned to be patient and not so stupidly aggressive like he used to be. 

And his lady is very satisfied as a result!

Yep, I was on the fence on Reid's deal when it was announced but after seeing what safeties went for in FA this off-season it ended up looking like a pretty good deal.

Still would have been smarter to let Reid test the market like they did with Love.

Probably could have got him cheaper and even if not, it's not like his play was elite.

Reid signing was perfect timing and cost.  Great move by Hurney.

Never been a Hurney fan but the man has been killing it this time around.  Respect

very nice

I wouldn't rule out DT early at all. Boyh of our starters are big cap hits and neither may be worth it.

But we can't get out of the either contract until after 2019, so as I've told you before picking DT early in this year's draft would be horrible. We need DE and OL much worse. Now picking DT early in the 2020 draft would be the right play. You need your 1st round pick to contribute early. Not sure how that would be possible with Poe, Short, Love and Butler on the roster.
