So we have 3 new starters, yes?

Burns is a DE.

He was talking about Justin Burris.

I doubt Chinn starts right off same with ygm.  I would imagine YGM slides into the starter position a bit sooner than chinn.  2021 all 3 are good to go

Yes, why not?

Because we don't open against Youngstown State.

[Jon Snow]

Anyone drafted is going to be a starter by default.

I will be drinking a vast amount of alcoholic beverages tonight , indeed

Can anyone think of any reason whatsoever that Brown, Gross-Matos, and Chinn should not all start immediately and remain in the game for as many reps possible?

 

This is a year for growth and learning, not winning. Get these guys all the experience they can possibly handle. 

How much cap are we wasting? Luke, Cam Reid, Kalil, Short...Paradis.

It’s almost near impossible to compete with all that cap being eaten by players that aren’t here physically or mentally.

IMO I agree, these are learning years, 2022 we will begin to compete problem is will Teddy solidify himself by then or we will be able to find a franchise QB.

Weatherly will prob start over YGM if there is a season.

[MMA]

Go get James Lynch or Biadasz and we get 4

[KendrickPanther]

Chinn won't be a 1st down player week 1.

[Soul Rebel]

I think Chinn is ST week 1 while getting rotated in here and there in a big nickel role. Burris/Boston are starters.

I do see at some point (hopefully sooner rather than later) that Chinn takes over.

I could also see where Burris gets moved to CB.

[KillerKat]

Not only possibly 3, but also possibly 4 since our CBs are poo and then we drafted Pride.

[LinvilleGorge]

Juston Burris has never stuck anywhere in the NFL. I have no clue why we gave him $8M over 2 years. He's a minimum salary camp body type.

[Soul Rebel]

I hope everyone is patient with Chinn. He has the build, athleticism, potential and desire, but to go from S.Illinois to the NFL is not an easy transition. 

I have no doubt that our future safety duo will be Chinn & Robinson....but it may take a minute to get there.
