I personally agree... recency bias, that's my fear.

I think it may be the opposite... Slater is seen as the best gunner of all time. I think anyone who is considered best at *any* position ever should be in the hall of fame. 2 first team all pro's is pretty crazy

It will be really interesting to see how the HOF treats someone like Slater from NE. He was a core special teamer for 16 years, 3 super bowls and seen as the greatest gunner of all time. If he gets in, then Tasker's argument gets stronger.

It was weird to use his college as a point in your take as if that matters. Edit: Bold and Italic.. based on what? He played 1 pre season game and he was quick, ran good routes, broke tackles, etc.

That's fine but I'm not sure why you were putting him at same position as Shakir.. Shakir played in the slot at Boise.... plays in the slot in the NFL.. Where you play doesn't mean you will change positions. Weird argument.. our QB who is the best in the world played "@ Wyoming.... Playing against....." Bingo

Skyler Bell was 65% outside at UConn.

Thankfully we got a steal on DJ Moore and his salary

He is the worst in game coach I've seen in a VERY long time. The fact he only won 1 SB with Rodgers is criminal. Edit: took out my comparison as to not hijack the thread.

That's uh.. that's very interesting. I really like Kincaid but this also goes to show..... we needed more weapons and were void of that elsewhere on the outside.

Baker 4 as well

I'm with you. Like I said, this can not be the "solution" but this definitely straps us cap wise.

All I'll say is: this better not be the "solution" and the only move we make. This all but kisses McGovern and Edwards goodbye which will inevitably put a damper on Cooks production next year. That being said, if he is a stud like he once was (he's still only 28), we got a steal in terms of price range. He is 25 M straight for 4 years. WR's in 2 years will be 36+

It's 100% his life and he doesn't live his life pleasing fans and an organization that could cut him tomorrow. You have no idea what happened to him last year and your "(as I'm sure he did)" is a complete guess. Have you been paying attention to the amount of NFL / CFB players that have committed suicide, been arrested, have gone absolutely bat sh** crazy over the last few months? You don't think he thought "man, I don't want to wind up like that, this isnt worth it"?? It's short sighted to say "well, he signed a contract he should play it out" as if NFL teams don't cut people 1 year into their contract.

Since 2022, Dawkins owns the third-best pressure rate among left tackles at just 7.4%. Are you ok? If you don't like him as a person for whatever reason, that's fine. But "he likes to run his mouth" is an absolutely immature take on a dude that is consistently considered top 5-8 at his position and has a 7.4 pressure rate over the last 3 years. I also never said he was great, I said borderline great. But if your stance is that in order to be considered great, you have to be a legend..... you have a very narrow view on this game.

Yeah it was all but sealed when we resigned cook that we'd lose either McGovern or Edwards. I genuinely do not see us trading Dawkins. It would be a complete shock to most. He's been good borderline great and a top 10 OT. Maybe they kick some of his salary down the road but I don't think he's going anywhere.
