I never thought about the Raiders, but sounds like the Steelers aren’t interested at all. The Jets are a perpetual dumpster fire no matter who shows up there. The Raiders have some talent, and not good for us considering Carroll is a good coach. He may be the oldest coach in the league, but that guy is like the energizer bunny. Bad news for us on the Crosby front. The good news as mentioned above is even more competition for KC. LA, and Denver are real competition for them and if Stafford goes to Vegas, that’s a tough in division battle for the next couple of years. No more automatic 6-0 in division. With the weakness of their offense, we may see the end of their reign of terror. They will still be good for 11-12 wins.

I wouldn’t trade him anyone. He has one more year left, and tag him next year. That’s 2 more years we get to enjoy Cook, and wish him the best. He’s only on the field 55-60% of the time, amd not worth anywhere near $15 mil. Now that Shakir is signed, we need to to force rank in this order if possible, Benford, and then Bernard. We get these guys reasonable extensions early before they cost too much, we have multiple young pieces in place. The simple answer is trade this years 1 and one of the 2’s, and next years 1 for Garrett, and use the other 2nd for a DT as the class is deep. Further down the draft as 2 4’s for a speedy WR, CB, S, and a Kicker with the last pick in the draft. Now we’re set at Oline, Dline, depth throughout the rest of the defense and our offense was humming already this year.

Mike, that’s actually a good idea. Dabs would get the most out of Stafford, and he’s not shot like Rodgers.

Pittsburgh or Jests makes the most sense. From Stafford standpoint it’s Pitt. They have an overall good team.

The networks will never give up their strangle hold on the NFL. The NFL will never lose the network $, as no amt of streaming services revenue can overtake fox, cbs, nbc, and abc. The best they can do is be competition to the networks. As long as YouTube has the ticket, and I can use one of my childrens or step childrens student status, I’m happy.

CSB, I’m guessing Garrett is the better target for a couple of reasons. First, Cleveland is rebuilding, and he declared he wants out. Garrett’s camp can turn the heat up at the combine meaning the agent, interviews to the press of Garrett. Push the issue by Garrett. Second, Cleveland saves $20 mil. By releasing him to buy other talent. We have a 1 and two 2nds. We can give a 1st and a 2nd this year, and a 1st next year. He’s worth it for 5 years. 2nd, Las Vegas now has Carroll for a head coach. Carroll has a 30 year history highly focused on a run game and pressuring defense all the way back to his Jets days, and USC before Seattle. He won’t want to part with a talent like Crosby. So onward for Garrett and cut Von for the $8.3 mil. Savings and let the restructures begin. I can see an extension for Josh as he’s not going anywhere and backloading more if the contract to free up more than enough for Garrett. As I’ve written in other threads, with that other 2nd rd pick, you grab the best DT you can get in a deep DT draft. There are a lot of good ones. Later with the 7 other draft spots, you can replenish with a speedy WR, Safety, CB, and the last 6th rd pick (we have 2 in the 6th), you grab the best kicker. Bass improved his position towards the end of the year, but nothing wrong with competition. So these are just a few thoughts as Virgil says in no particular order.

I’m all in on Garrett or Crosby. We can always draft whatever highest pick we have left a DT. That infuses a lot of talent in the line which is the greatest need.

I’m happy for Jax if this works. The new HC did a heck of a job as OC for Tampa. He was part of how Mayfield made the most of his career. This the best Mayfield has ever performed, amd been quite impressed with him in Tampa. Seeing as I watch about every Bucs game, I’m a decent judge of his performance.

As long as vet. Minimum, I’m good with it. He knows the system and at most is the 4th CB, as you know Elam is gone. You couldn’t get a ham sandwich for that guy. Dane outplayed him regularly.

It’s a pretty foregone conclusion we’ll draft one with one of our 10 picks. If we trade two picks for for Garrett or at least Crosby, we still have 8 picks and it’s obvious the 2nd rd extra as we have 2 will go to one of the many DT studs in this deep class. Probably one of the 4th rd picks will go to WR. I agree with the OP we need a guy who creates separation and has good hands.

I didn’t think so. Enjoy you’re off season Virg.

Virg, he’s not going anywhere. Don’t let your imagination get the best if you. You’re one if the best posters on this board, and you know I think the world of you.

You weren’t going to get that in the middle of the season. Now, we have 10 picks so one if the two 6th rd picks we have on a kicker. Many teams do not use a draft pick, so you’d be assured of getting a decent one. Then, we’ll see, but at least we’d have you’re competition, amd if nothing else, have one on the PS.

Exactly. We have a number of players that can be restructured including Josh. God knows they’ve done that enough with Mahomes. I’m going to keep banging the drum of Garrett, and if not Crosby. Beane has proven time and time again, he stinks at picking DE’s. We need to buy one. We can save $8 mil. By cutting Von. Von was a good idea, but since his injury, he’s only soaringly helped in 2024, and not at all in 23. We can draft one of the many beast DT’s in the draft as that draft is deep.

Well, it’s obvious we’ve missed the mark on DT. Oliver has flashed at times, but very inconsistent. Daquan is getting old. This draft is deep at DT. We may be trading top picks for Garrett or Crosby, but we can grab DT’s in the draft.

My choice is we use this years 1st, one of our 2nds, and next years 1st, and secure Garrett. That’s my pick. It’s not as if Beane has a great track record with 1sts anyway. This is the best defensive lineman in football, and GROOT would be great with Garrett on the other side. With the other 2nd we grab the best DT in the draft as it’s a deep class.

Agreed bud. I’ve had it with the window of a few years. What’s probably behind this frustration is a sincere desire to get us the tools to win. The easy answer is simply get Myles Garrett. That’s what we need and what he wants. To be with a winning team.

He’s past his prime, so not really.

Myles Garret, Myles Garrett, Myles Garret

There were so many misses during the drought years. Maybin in for one.

For the first time, I’m finally coming around to these flaws. Neither will get fired, but they have to get to big dance. It’s so frustrating they keep missing on top picks. It’s one of the reason is they are under contract, and the Pegulas don’t have the interest in changing regimes.

Most of the guys on this list can be extended except Coleman as he just finished his rookie year except Cook. Let him play put his last year, and then tag him for a year. Then move on. RB’s don’t last.

What a great act of kindness on Josh. I’m so proud of him and this team.

I didn’t see it as a big deal. Looking proactive is everywhere. If I don’t want to see it, I turn it off. I honestly don’t care. Of all the clips, she showed the least. Besides, she’s an actress. They all use sex to sell stuff.

The Bills would’ve given them a better game, but I don’t think we would’ve won. The Eagles were the best team on the field. They deserved the Lombardy. I’m happy for them and happy the Chiefs were basically embarrassed. I can’t wait to. Listen to NFLR today. Screw the Chiefs. They lost by 20, but only because they scored garbage points at the end.
