Reed looks like he might be released by Seattle. I'm not sure what wizardry Beane would need to do to get this done, but it would help us immensely IMO. Last year, and it still continues now, I can't even count the amount of times people have said, "Player Y would have been better if Star took up space in the middle", "Star would have taken 2 blockers here", etc. Star is a nice player but for someone who does one thing, the fact that it was the opinion of many that he was the biggest difference maker in this type of defense, means we need to have someone to replace him after he's cut or retires after next season. Reed would be a Reed would be a great option IMO. Thoughts?

I have to say Troup over Gronk is much worse

I'm all for this. I totally understand what you are saying. This team doesn't have too many glaring holes. Of the things we need the most evident, in my mind, are pass rush, CB2, younger on OL, and DL, and TE. You aren't going to hit on all draft picks, but have a better shot at doing so with higher picks. Beane has been able to find some good value later one, but he's been good overall, giving him a better likelihood of nailing the higher rated picks. Use the draft ammo to target the guys you love and complete the team

Hamsah is awesome. if he could put on 10 more pounds that puts him in the SHaq Thompson conversation as far as build, and taller. He could play the big nickel to start and provide an insurance policy at S. Would he be there at our pick in the 2nd round?

I thought the Fam comment was about D Williams and that he deserved it

I don't understand some people on here giving Poyer grief about his pic on the car. He's not saying he's better than anyone else, but that being a player in the NFL his life wasn't as bad so it might have been hard to change. But he realized the seriousness and got help. I thought the pic is just him on his (expensive) car, sober, and being able to enjoy all the things that being an NFL player can provide while being sober and living life a lot happier and present than before. He mentions his kid and being too out of it to play with her and making his wife cry all the time. Things certainly weren't good. He's not better than anyone, but he's just showing that he's happy living his life now. People are so damn sensitive.

Butler was put in a less than ideal situation and was much better than Jefferson, and Addison for that matter. He's young (26) and will be playing his normal position next year. Young piece to move forward with, and he will get paid once the cap goes up

TE is a position that takes a long time to develop in the NFL from college. It took Ebron a long time to become a TD machine the past few years. Heck, Pettigrew, didnt even pan out. I don't want to give up on Knox. He's super athletic, but he's still learning. He can't block and is prone to drops, although it was better this year. Lee Smith is most likely going to retire. Out the following list of FA or players that most likely will be cut, who do you think makes most sense with salary cap and age in mind: Jonnu Smith Zach Ertz Kyle Rudolph Gerald Everett Hunter Henry Dan Arnold Jared Cook Jordan Reed For me I think it comes down Everett, Smith, or Arnold. They are vets, but still young with not a lot of injury history. Cook, Reed, and Ertz are old or have injuries and Henry is too expensive. Who does everyone think is a reasonable signing both money wise and skills wise?

I think they'd love to have him back but you have to look at the value. you are always trying to get great players through the draft to deal with the cap, so you have to look at which positions are easier and harder to replace. At what D Williams can get in FA, they might feel that a draft pick can replace him and at a lesser cost for years to come. Harder to do at other positions like QB, DL, etc

who does he have us taking? Heard on the radio he has Jets trading back to 4 with Atlanta and then taking Pitts.

who would you rather? Watt or Von Miller?

I don't think, even though it makes sense, to have a mass cutting of players. We have a great culture and the team really seems to bond and get along with each other. I'd be worried it would mess up the teams chemistry a little or thoughts about the FO. maybe Im overthinking this as some of them have only been here a year.

link?

Klein said in the press conference if I remember right that he's always primarily been a MIKE

With AJ really playing well the last 3-4 games, could our lineup be Milano-Tremeaine-AJ

I think Rubgy is a sport where you have to have a lot of vision. You don't get more of a running start and they run in close quarters with the opponent as much if not more than the NFL

I agree with this and think the best lineup is with hm at C and Mongo at G I agree with this, but wouldn't McD just come out and say there is concern for his health? or is that a faux pas?

I know this has been discussed. But I just listened to McD and I was surprised that even after having Morse not play last game, he didn't say "Mitch is our starting center". With other payers struggling he says "this guy is our starting so and so" or "we have faith in this guy to produce at a high level". Morse has been a top Center, and I'm just shocked TBH that in his last press conference all he had to say about Mitch was "he's in the mix". Am I missing something on film? Has he been playing poorly"? I haven't seen it.

I know it's a long shot, and I know people haven't been happy with the run game. I'd imagine the 3 active guys are definitely better than Wade. Yeldon played well earlier in the year. But whether this year or next could he ever get a look? Or rugby is just so far away from NFL football that he's just a nice story, but will never make the active roster?

1 tech DT, LB, TE

Ed posted a pic on IG saying RIP to someone. I think a family member or best friend. anyone know who this was? and what happened?

we did pay him

Oliver was good last year and for the first two games this year. He has been playing out of position because Phillips has been so bad. We need a 1-tech badly.

looks like we're out yea

Cornelius Bennet for sure. I'd love Moulds, Fred, Kyle, Schobel too, but it's been way too long for Biscuit.
