DWill sign?

90% chance Dwill signs. I think CJ will be a 75% chance.

I think CJ is higher than that, given the defensive minds on the staff and the possibility that Marshall will not return... pass rush will be of the utmost importance.

One of our backs have to go.

Why? What a luxury to have talent that deep.

With Stewart and Goodson on rookie deals which are totally cheap, Williams would be the only big money back. We could sign him to a 6 year 36 million dollar contract with no problem. If you only guarantee 16 million of it and backload it with roster bonuses and bigger salaries at the end which he won't likely see, it could be very manageable. You might end up paying him 20 million of it over 3 or 4 years which would be a deal. The key is not guaranteeing all of it upfront and backloading it which we wouldn't have to pay if he wears down once he hits 30.

This. People tend to forget that Stewart isn't making big money. Yes, he was a 1st round pick, but the only 1st round picks that get the huge contracts are the ones that go in the top few picks.

    • he averaged 2 yards in YAC per reception last year.  He can't generate quick separation.  He was debating retirement last year.    Yet we championing him as some great option.  AT is a savvy vet we force feed the ball too......on a team starved for basic offense the last couple seasons.  We overrated AT.  Which is why some freak when people like JT on his podcast point out the painfully obvious about him.   
    • The Athletic has us ranked 28th on their post-draft power rankings, mainly due to us picking T-Mc instead of defense in round 1. They recognize we needed WR help, but... https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6317651/2025/04/29/nfl-power-rankings-post-draft-rookies-eagles-chiefs-bills/
    • I mean, he is a slot technician.  That's what he does.  So, in a good offense, you would be trotting him out there on 3rd downs and situationally.....to not take what they give him but to move chains.  It's a niche.  AT hasn't threatened defenses in years.  Last time we saw Renfrow on the field he averaged..... 6 yards YAC per catch.  Adam Thielen last year averaged....2 yards in YAC per catch last year.  I still contend in reality, AT isn't a slot WR.  Not in reality.  He is an aging rec TE.  And those aren't the same thing.  AT simply can't generate quick separation or provide YAC.
