Lamardirts 2,114 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Cut LDT, Sorensen, Colquitt, Bell, Erving and Watkins. Resign Jones. Needs 2- DBs (1 Draft & 1 Vet) 2- LBS (1 Draft & 1 vet) OC (Draft) OG (FA older vet-1 year deal) RB (Draft) WR (Draft) Backup TE Resign Breeland, Claiborne or another prove it guy to allow our drafted guy a year to develop. 1. OC (Protecting Pat is priority) 2. DB (If Protecting Pat wasn't a priority he would be a 1st round need) 3. WR (Draft is too deep to pass up an opportunity and with Watkins and Robinson leaving....its a need) 4. LB (Should be higher on the list but it isn't) 5. RB (We are good at finding smaller school studs....so here's to finding lightning in a bottle again) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get insurance and a kid like that if he stays healthy will be a top 15 pick. He's a stud and I would have taken him over IOL which I think is the most important need we have outside of DB/LB. He's a beast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William Gay JR Mississippi state LB 6'2" 240 This kid is electric, fast, and nasty. Unfortunately for him he is like that off the field too. As he has been suspended by the coach previously. Had academic issues. And most recently got into an altercation with their QB during bowl preparation. Causing the QB to not be able to play for (rumor) broken orbital bone. But I think with guys like Frank Clark and Tyronn Mathieu over there hr would be kept in check and focused. He's also the son of William Gay, the safety from the Steelers. Isn't he exactly the type of player we should avoid with Mahomes in KC 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palangi 788 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Thing is we don't know the details of the incident. He might not have started it, but finished it. And like I said, we have some really strong leadership on defense right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FANATIC 852 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Linebacker in free agency & top draft choice. Move up if needed. Resign current corners and use a mid round pick. Secondary has played very well. Oline is more an issue of running game than pass protection. Mahomes has not been sacked all that much. Free agent and mid round pick for oline. Running backs and receivers are least of needs and can be picked up after the draft and after final cut downs. Check into this guy if released. Colts GM Chris Ballard said, "We'll probably move on" when asked about impending free agent Eric Ebron. The Colts appear willing to enter 2020 with Jack Doyle and Mo Alie-Cox as their top-two TEs. Ebron should have a decent market of teams that could use a big-bodied receiver that is capable of lining up all over the formation. Overall, Ebron spent as much time in the slot (152 snaps) and out wide (69) as he did as a true inline TE (102). Drops have always been a bit of a problem, but Ebron is just one season removed from scoring 13 touchdowns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alabama linebacker Dylan Moses' decision to return for his senior season has been held up as he seeks insurance protection for 2020. Earlier Thursday, his father, attorney Edward Moses Jr., said his son had given an "unadvised commitment" to come back to school rather than enter the NFL draft Dylan Moses on Monday announced his decision to return to the Crimson Tide for the 2020 season. He missed all of this past season recovering from a torn knee ligament he suffered in August. Maybe not a done deal yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a 12 million dollar cap number next year. That's not in line with his productivity at all.

bamaroyal 87 Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Hitchens is finally playing somewhat like the player that was in Dallas... Much better fit for Spags defensive schemes... Still 12 Mil - ouch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A switch for him to Raglands spot and get a true free roaming LB would make for a solid group of LB with Wilson imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the type that could make sense. I don't like the idea of paying significant money to a player that will be hard pressed to see 60% of the snaps. Double TE sets are nice but Ebron isn't a good blocker and the money we spent on him could easily be used on an IOL. We have a young talented guy on the PS in Fortson and there are guys way better than Bell we can draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not willing to let Watkins walk and hope an undrafted completely unproven guy like Fortson can help. My choice would be to add one veteran WR or TE. Not a high profile signing, but a guy who fits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkuenn 3,597 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Find it interesting to see what is out there when an article ranks them by position. Some we have said here but I also looked at S too in case Thornhill is not quite ready or we want one and play 3 safeties with HB near the line too. Maybe Ha Ha Clinton Dix? Either way get us a C in the draft say Biadaz and or a FA one then draft a G ot FA one. Some good LB out there too. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2868659-nfl-free-agency-2020-previewing-this-years-class#slide0://bleacherreport.com/articles/2868659-nfl-free-agency-2020-previewing-this-years-class#slide0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But pay attention to the Oregon center as well, Jake Hanson. Her is a good one as I'd a second round grade. Could improve to a a late first rounder with a good game. He is big 6'5" 305. Also watch the RT for Oregon Calvin throckmorton. He has played center too. And is 6'5" 320 I thought that Hansen looked better than Biadasz. He's definitely more athletic to get out and pull and get to the second level. I'd like to see us get him in round 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm all for that but I seem to remember Ebron having issues with the drops when we played him and the announcers referencing issues this entire year. Maybe I'm wrong.

We don't need a back that needs space to pick up speed we need another Kareem Hunt.

He's not necesarrily a draft crush just a guy who seems to fit in our O and has a lot of wiggle. Don't really like drafting a RB early but our O run like a top with an above avg rb.
