2021 Roster Build

[Boltnut]

King isnt coming back lol. What makes you think he would? He wasnt happy here for whatever reason.

The reason he wasn't happy here was because he wasn't getting playing time. I know how to fix that:

1. Fire Gus
2. Cut Chris Harris

King is a rental in Tennessee. They're in cap trouble next year.

[Boltnut]

hah !! ghost has 9 OTs, and now you've got 11 DEs.... omg/oy veh !!

if you trim it to two of 'em, think that yes, PJ2 is one of 'em and Oweh is the other, and.... think you've got to use a second on the either of 'em.

3 or 4 DE's go in the 1st round, then 3 or 4 more in the 2nd round.... you're out of DE's. Or taking chances in round 3.
And yes, DE in the 2nd round looks right.

My hopes:
#11 (after we beat DEN this weekend): OT Slater/Leatherwood
round 2: DE Patrick Jones II
round 3a: LB (Surratt?)
round 3b: CB

lookin' @things right now, think team Tommy John takes the same approach @OT that they took w/QB last time 'round.... think they would be willing to draft any of the three.... Sewell, Slater or Darrisaw, and will take whichever is there for them in the top ten.... (prolly Slater me thinx ?)

and again, if you just gotta have LEO in round two, then yes again the both of Jones or Oweh is prolly your best bet, albeit am looking IOL @the top of round two personally, and while guessing team Tommy John might be looking CB @the top of the second ??

far as Surratt, he looks to be a heady player, and as Zaven Collins looks to be off the board by then.... personally still like the more physical guy in Palaie Gaoteote, albeit he might not be as adept @processing/recognition as the former QB ??

what happened to your guy Brian Poole ??

not sure the return of DK is anything probable ??

[beachcomber]

Agree on Jones, not on Paye. My sleeper is Koonce.

Khalil Mack 2.0 ....not bad for speculation ??

and agree, Paye is just SupaMel 2.0 and maybe not even that ??

I like the idea of Linsley at OC Either he or Andrews
I am not sure both Hayward and Harris will be waived but one of them is going I would think
Mike Williams - either he will be signed for a much friendlier deal for the team or offer rescinded. PErsonally, I let him test the waters and see what the market thinks
Trai Turner is a tough one - but if you can get better - get better. But make sure you use that money if you cut him on a free agent and do not wait for the draft

I like that when you cut a player you used the direct money in free agency, to replace the player. And than you have the draft to fill out the roster

Trading multiple picks for a kicker is different than just trading for a kicker that isn't the top kicker all time. Your target.... IF he was even ever available, which I doubt would cost a lot.


Basham at #9 would suck. Trading up for him maybe but I'm not trading away picks this year though pass rushers aren't a strong class thus year.
We need OL bad and trading away two early picks would be a disaster.

And picking those WRs isn't some genius move. Shit that was perhaps one of the best classes ever. Many people mentioned Metcalf and Brown. The class was loaded and good ones lasted to the sixth round.

If only you could spot bad coaching.

Do you trust Telesco to get you some great groceries in rd 2 and rd 3. His track record isn't very good there.

What's more of a disaster, using the 2nd and 3rd and getting little to nothing from them. Or seeing Basham-DE become a pro bowl double digit sack player for another team. While Telesco 2nd and 3rd rd picks turn out to be Pipkins and Tuerk or Watt. They could turn into Lamp and Feeney. Serviceable.

There is some benefit into trading into rd 1.
You are getting another top 25 prospect on your board and you also get a 5th year option with that pick.

And again you are using 3 picks to get 2 players. So only losing one pick in that deal. And you have free agency to get an experienced veteran to make up for the one player you didn't add because of the trade. That player can potentially be a pro bowl caliber lineman like Thuney-LG.
Disaster averted.

It's like the lottery, you can't win if you don't play.
Keenan was a third round pick so I'll take the chances.

Well I wanted to replace Steichen with Bieniemy last year and also give Eric the title of assistant HC.
I would assume the offense would be a bit different with Beiniemy calling plays. Plus I like having someone in the building who was just working with Andy Reid. The team to beat in the division. Thought adding him would be useful.

Think the run on one of those play calls in with late game clock ticking had Lynn glaring at Steichen and waving his arm at him to throw the damn ball there. Don't think he needs to tell Eric that. And Eric was a RB too.

Really more damaged goods and crossing fingers it works out.
This is even a better year to do a move back into top 25 as they likely have a 3rd rd comp you can use on your lottery ticket.
