2024, what we could see...

A young feisty group that wins at least 6 or 7 games during a re-shaping year. I can see them trading Burns and getting a 1st and a 3rd. I can see them trading Chinn for a 3rd and if he's not under contract they'll get a comp pick. I see them moving back (a few spots) from the 33rd pick and getting an additional 2nd or 3rd or even 4th rd pick. I see them signing a lot UDFA's who will come here because they have a legit shot.

All this will mean it will take a few games in to get their bearings and then "we have nothing to lose" football and maybe some wins and the fun starts to happen. 6 or 7 wins and the start of a better culture is what I hope for.

i'm predicting nothing this year.

pretty much because i'll actually admit i don't have a clue. 

i'm just along for the ride and hoping that we aren't just miserable to watch and to have a reason for optimism at different points throughout the offseason and regular season.

Way too early to predict anything reasonable honestly - FA'cy and the draft will be huge factors in that prediction.  But I would expect that we see a heavy investment in the lines and WR room while dealing with these horrible contracts.  I absolutely expect no more than 6-7 wins this year no matter what moves we make.  Our schedule next year is pretty tough as well...KC, Chargers, Eagles, Cowboys, Bengals.  2024 will be painful but productive I believe.  2025 is where I think we start setting real expectations.

I mean, we could see anything. At least wait until after the draft, rookie camp and OTAs before embarking upon great expectations...

But, just to play along---today---I see three wins as our ceiling. Sorry. That's it. Three!

I hope you are right. We’ve kind of blown a series of top 10 picks (Iky, Horn, Young x2), that we need top picks and turn them into picks like Cam, Luke, Peppers and Gross.

Without getting into the sunk cost fallacy, the team invested too much in Bryce to not make this season all about him. 
 

Give him the best chance to succeed so we can move forward. If he blows then we are in a better spot for a new QB or vet to take over. 

It's a bitter pill, but it's the truth.

    • You all make some great points.  I love the OT Trapilo pick but it is a round too soon.  Tells me someone is doing their homework.  He is a solid pass blocking RT and we need pass blockers to keep Bryce nice. About S--I want an early S too, but Richardson was not bad when he played.  Most players improve the most between years 1 and 2.  There are some decent safeties in this draft later, so maybe I have been looking at the Corvettes in the showroom when I should have been kicking tires in the used SUV lot. Regardless, with Moton's knee concerns, age, contract, etc.  I really would like to see us draft a legit starting-caliber, second tier OT now.  I watched Trapoli at the Sr Bowl and he has really strong pass pro form.  33" arms (OK) and he is 6'8".  There are others I like as well: Cam Williams, Texas Donovan Jackson, Ohio St. Charles Grant, W&M Anthony Belton, NC State Emory Jones, LSU Our coaching staff just showed us how they can develop young players.  Wait until the third or fourth and get one of these guys.  Take a year to prepare them.  Sign BC to another 1-year contract for insurance.  If our OL coaches are an asset and they have a year to work with one of these OTs above, let them do their jobs. In that second round pick slot, maybe we can get that Safety--might have to move up a bit--I would not be surprised to see a draft day trade of Zavala.  If other teams were scouting us properly, they should have seen a potential starter buried on the depth chart.
