    The Titans traded for Calvin Ridley which doesn’t bode well for Burks. Having DeAndre Hopkins, Ridley and the #7 pick overall in this year’s draft puts them in the right position to select one of the top 3 WRs. 
     

    I believe that Beane is going to move up in the draft for either Brian Thomas Jr or Adonai Mitchell but adding another WR is still a real possibility. Being a former 1st rd pick that hasn’t stayed healthy makes Burks expendable. If Beane could get him cheap that would be a low risk high ceiling WR prospect for the Bills imo.

     

    I'd rather stay put and draft Legette

    why is everyone acting like we're taking an additional 31 million?  It's an additional 3-4 million hit.  That's it. 

     

    You're right. Just sucks to be eating 31M in cap for someone not even contributing to the team. But if he was starting to be more of a problem than an asset you have to get rid of him.

    A lot of people that were trashing Diggs as a non-impact player in the back half of last year are coming out now and upset that we traded our star talent.

     

    I loved Diggs, but I understand why he was moved.  Any disruption/age/injury/cap implications are valid

     

    No one cares about this from a football perspective other than it creating a hole at a position. Eating 31M in cap space for a return of a pick NEXT year is the issue.

    Top 40 pick (most likely)for an aging WR is good value

     

    Not in NEXT years draft. 2nd rd pick in the next year is always devalued by 1 rd when considering compensation. It also doesn't help us draft his replacement at all.  

  5. I love Beane. That said, I don't hace confidence that there will be difference making WRs near pick 28 and I don't see us hitting on an early rd DE because frankly I don't have confidence in this FO's ability to identify and draft DLmen. A rotational DT plays 40-50% of the snaps and is involved in every single play they are on the field for. A backup WR, which is what I believe will be left around 28, can run dozens of routes and will realistically affect 4-6 plays with catches and maybe a couple more if they can block well. Unless we get a gift dropped in our lap I don't really see how a top 5-10 WR is better for our team than a rotational piece with upside. We are going to put Shakir, Samuel and Diggs out there half the plays and drop Shakir to put in another TE in 12 personnel. There are realistically 4 WRs that could come in and convince this staff to sit Shakir or Samuel and we're not sniffing them barring a miracle.

    played with SF last year

     

    PFF rank #64 of 130 interior defenders (DT's)

     

    #81   Tim Settle

    #129 Jordan Phillips

     

    Played 14 games for the CHARGERS last year, was a team captain and had just signed an extension. He got cut when the coach was axed because they wanted to give young players a shot and they knew they were going to be purging the cap this year. Picked up by SF at the end of the year.

    We have a handful of holes.  There are several solid safeties still available. Sometimes you have to wait a bit to get one for the right price.  That’s my guess.

     

    hollins has a skill set unlike most available FA WRs.  A skill set that this FO/coaching staff covets.  We have gaping holes at WR too.  That’s why we are spending money on Rotational players when there is a gaping hole at S. 

     

    I expect WR to be filled in the draft. I'd just rather have Justin Simmons than Armstead. That's just my opinion, you can feel free to disagree with me though.

    got to think outside the box

     

    Arik & Rousseau at DE against the run.

    Arik & Ed inside against the pass.

     

    He is fully capable of playing anywhere on our DL and has done so with the Niners

     

    It would be nice to have if we were a team with cap space, but we aren't. Taylor Rapp is our only starting safety and I don't even like him that much. Why are we spending money on rotational players when there is a gaping hole at S?

  9. I don't understand why you'd put big money into a 3 tech when we already paid a younger one. He would be nice to have in a rotation but we need a starting S and there is a big market for them and that position pays much less. With the size of our LBs you'd think another 1 tech should be a priority cause we're a different defense if DaQuan is out.
