With Brown & Chinn going into their second years, I can see why.

Bridgewater isn't long for these parts and those dudes are the team leaders.

Who's surprisingly not in there is Shaq Thompson.  He should have assumed the role of the leader of our defense last season and clearly did not.

Are you the least bit surprises?  I'm not.  Shaq was never going to be Luke or TD's heir apparent no matter how much Hurney wished it.

I'm not but it's as much shade, maybe even more than the TB.  The writing is on the wall for Bridgewater for the world to see, he is done here.  Buuuut Shaq was given the clear chance to step up and given a nice fat contract after years of production.  He's actually quite a solid player but just not a leader for this team.

He should be getting a decent offer from us, anything less is stupid. I really don't put as much stock in Robby Anderson as everyone else is, he's a 50% completion rate WR up until he was shortened in the passing game with check down teddy. If Moore was to go down who do we really have left at WR so far? Anderson, Zylstra and Cooper?

Heck, DJ is losing out in the Anderson conversation too, remember he still needs to be re-signed.  It's like Robbie is a lock to get a new deal (for some odd reason) and Curtis...to a lesser extent Moore, are expendable.

His contract money isn't for a 'wallflower leader' and just 'good' production.

To be fair, you can't level that criticism at Robby and not do the same with Curtis.  Because pre-TB5, they both had about the same catch %.  Both of them jumped up in catch % this year.  Someone is going to see that and overpay Curtis.

Personally, I'd rather have a 6' 3" true outside receiver than a 5' 11" slot guy.  I love Curtis and what he brings to the offense, but slot guys are not that hard to find.  Our problem historically is that all we seem to find is slot guys.  Then we try to push them outside and they fail.  Rinse repeat.

      If I’m putting myself in a team’s shoes - you’re looking at these prospects and Warren hits most boxes for a TE with a plus on most. So yeah, he’s a great prospect, no doubt, 1st round talent as a TE. But when I look at him through the lens of that PSU offense, they were running so much through him, I’m not so sure it was beneficial to seeing how he translates.  They were getting him open in the flat, running weird trick plays, and designed a lot of ways to find him on delayed seam routes and such. So a lot was structured around getting him the ball in creative ways to advance the ball, in steady sequences, methodically down the field.  Thing is, yeah he’s catching a ton, is big, and can block, but throw him into an NFL offense in a more traditional sense, he’s gonna be stickied by speedy LBs and big nickels. I just wonder how he is in a more isolated fashion— when he’s just a piece of a greater NFL offense getting shadowed by more talented defenders. I think it could still be great but I have question marks when it’s at the TE position. Will he look no different than other very solid TEs or is he this offensive centerpiece at the position that doesn’t come along often (Bowers, Gronk, Kelce, Witten, TG, etc)? I think he brings a ton and could be one of the safer TE prospects, but what I’m unsure about is if you’re really getting this new age Witten type people are crowning him as. Even if that’s the case, is that worth it? If he wasn’t in PSU’s Franklin/Allar offense, would you be seeing the same output?  More questions than anything - I could get on board with it, but it’s hard for me to really project because of how that offense was (which was so frustrating at times).

      Twitter sources, but supposedly the Rams want him. He might actually go Round 1.

      You aren't going to ever get him out of the equation. As he has stated previously, he believes it his right to make the final call on decisions.
