The draft network

He was on the team at the end of last year, he wouldn't count against the comp pick formula.

Draft, Beane has always said you have to be able to rely on cheap labor through the draft.

Happy to eat crow if I'm wrong, but I would be surprised if this gets done anytime soon, or even at all.

Drew Sanders is 6'5 235, not a Milano-type. Sewell is more athletically limited than I would like.

He's quoting the article, isn't he?

Situation is what many here have been saying for a while - Rookie GM trying to play hardball with his pie in the sky wishes and other teams just sitting around waiting for him to admit he's being ridiculous. McCaffrey is 26, Hopkins is 30 and coming off an injury and a PED pop, even getting a 3rd for Hopkins would be above market rate for him right now because of his salary. McCaffrey had his contract restructured last season before the trade and his salary was $690,000; Hopkins has a base salary of $19.45M and $14.915M over the next 2 seasons, this is clearly a salary dump - He shouldn't be had for more than a 4th without AZ eating significant money, to think otherwise is ignorant by them. This is like people selling a house and trying to charge you a premium because they spent money wiring the house for audio and wifi - I don't care about your add-ons, the house value is determined by the comp market, not your feelings.

This isn't Madden, you can't expect to draft 7-8 guys in a draft and have them all start; you have to bring in vets and supplement with rookies. Once you have a roster that is set you would expect to be bringing along your later round draft picks into starting positions while the Rd 1-3 can battle for their positions as starters.

Too many people here being precious about the cap. Every year we fail to get a SB caliber supporting cast around Josh is another year of prime JA17 wasted, I'm more concerned about that number, since it's finite.

Just extend DaQuan Jones and Micah Hyde 1 year each and drop their cap for this year, should give us another 8-9M with those two extensions.

We have not done the best job in the draft, however the parameters of the 5 year period don't really fit well for this team during that time period. McBeane were in the process of completely rebuilding the roster 5 years ago. 2018 team above; there are only 2 starters on Offense and 5 starters on defense from that team currently on the roster and we drafted exactly 5 of those.

We still don't have a MLB or RT

The can want in one hand and crap in the other and see which fills up first. We should offer the Bucs and a package for Mike Evans and see what happens.

Yep, new GM is asking for the moon. If this gets done at all, it won't be soon
