Leaving out STs, rank these 12 positions.  Currently we have seven draft picks (1st, 2nd(a), 2nd(b), 3rd, 4th(a), 4th(b) and a 5th).  Here are mine:

QB-1

WR-3

RB-6

TE-2

IOL-8

OT-12

 

DE-5

DT-9

ILB-4

OLB-7

CB-11

S-10

If nothing changes and we don't move down for anymore picks, OL, DB and DT will have to wait for undrafted FAs or low-end UFAs.

We match up until the last two picks. Why secondary over other needs when DBs are arguably the strength/most depth on the team?  All starters are back and we are 5 deep at CB.  We just need backup safeties and as much as we joke about Temple players, I imagine Franklin will be re-signed if nothing more than his STs play.  Finding S#4 shouldn't be too difficult to sift through in FA.

D-Jax might be done and I'm honestly not sold on Horn's durability. We could use more depth there.

I'll want for a legit sideline to sideline deep FS until we have one. Deon Grant is the closest we ever came.

1-QB

2-WR - The position is just a bigger impact than TE and I don't trust who we have.  We need to find a star to help propel this offense.  If we can get a star TE, then sure, but otherwise, I think WR is the higher priority.

3-TE - Would love this to becoming a position of focus again in our offense.  Geodart, Kelce, Andrews all seem like integral pieces to their respective teams and would be killer to find a guy.  

4-IDL - Brown has been a great story but we need a 3-down smushing multi-tech guy next to him to help shore the front.

5-LB - A clear need, Shaq will be gone.  Luvu and Wilson can only provide us so much. B Smith is TBD

6-DE - A fair need with YGM ain't thriving, Haynes not being a 3-down guy, and unsure if Barno has starter potential

7-RB - Foreman and Hubbard are aight but we need fresh legs

8-C - Bozeman restructure dependent

9-DB - Lumping all together due to versatility these days.  

10-OG - Brady & Corbett are the starters going forward, could use depth

11-OT - Is this a parallel universe?

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
