Felonious Monk Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 (edited) The numbers do not support that most of those qbs are better then EJ Would rather draft a developmental prospect in this draft I thought we had Zac Dysert as our developmental QB, but I see he's back with Miami. Given the large number of QB-needy teams drafting ahead of us, the really sad free agent list and the lack of decent QB prospects in the draft, I think QBs -- who any other year would go in the 5th or higher -- will go early in the 3rd. I just don't see a single QB in this entire class as a franchise QB. Anyone in particular you like as that developmental guy?

beastman Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 What about bringing back thad Lewis to back up Tyrod? I always thought thad was a gamer despite his limited skills. He may flourish under Roman and has similar skills sets as Tyrod so wouldn't have to change up plays so much in the event Thad had to go in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Jermon Bushrod just got cut in Chicago. Might be decent OT depth if can get cheap (when healthy).

NastyNateSoldiers Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 (edited) Realistic options that won't be costly to the cap that can help our Bills Dust Settle Bargains WR Brian Quick SS James Ihedigbo OLB- Courtney Upshaw FS- Tavon Branch 3-7 Mil a yr players NT Damon Harrison 5/6mil per MLB Rolondo McClain 3/4 mil 5Tech/DT Jaye Howard 6/7 mil Olb/SS Mark Barron 3/4 mil If we can have a free agency like this i would be very happy. None of these players break the bank but all can fit various roles. Of course this would be beneficial only if we can retain our Left side of our line. I realize we are gonna have to cut some players restructuring deals etc etc to make this happen. Mario, Kyle would have to go or take massive paycuts hopefully Kyle would do this and be in rotation with this new Dline 5TECH-DAREUS NT-HARRISON 5TECH-HOWARD These guys fit way better in the 2gap system that Rex wants to run. This also would allow us to run the hybrid 3/4 - Nickel D that would put Barron in that role as Rover. These moves would also open up the draft to truly go after the best players available so it's possible we can get at least 3 starters immediately from the draft.

PlayoffsPlease Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Thanks for posting this OP but I admit to finding your ranking system odd to say the least. For example, I would have rated Alshon Jeffrey much higher. Aren't the players just listed alphabetically? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roman knows Boone very well and he had kinda an off year, so the price might be good. Also, frankly, most Niners players would not really want to be back with the team, and Chip Kelly isn't know for smooth interactions with his players. Osmele is an option as well. Anyway, what are your guys' thoughts? Who do you think we should be targeting this year? I wouldn't touch Greg Hardy with a ten foot pole. But I can see Rex taking shot at him for league minimum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
