      Just curious LB.
      Do you see any UFAs or any positions you are keen on, in our current circumstances ?

      I would go DB, IDL, IOL.

      Duke Manyweather is touting Willis Patrick.
      We do not play modern football.

        I believe Palmer is better than Boyd. Palmer is a legit # 2 who I think is still ascending. You can't say that about Boyd at this point in his career. He is who is as a leveled off # 3.

        That said, I do believe Boyd can help this team although I think any available money is better spent on defense.

          DT Shelby Harris or NT John Jenkins. Both solid run stuffing, rotational guys. One year deal to either.

            Chark off the table, MVS still a maybe. Hortiz has a reason to look at vet FA WRs. Not sure what but it's a fact.

            Maybe they just want the WRs to know nothing is being given. Bust your ass to learn the new playbook and be ready. Blocking required from all O.

              Figured he would hold out for more after turning down the hometown Steelers. Just means Simmons will likely cost more as well so doubt we will sign him either.

                I say stay with the hand we have and play it out...save the money for flexibility in the future, once we identify what isnt going to stick...next season...

                But...IF there was a bully to be had at RG...though not sure there is...I would be fine having Salyer and Pip as solid, experienced depth.

                Think the dline is ok...for now...again, lets see what/who works...

                Gotta lot of young corners...throw em' in the fire, see who emerges with a sharp edge...but as much as I would hate to see Alohi as a second stringer, Simmons would be somebody I actually would pay for...as he would help back a very green secondary...

                Overall, though....I say stand pat...save the cash...not only for that future flexibility, but this season too...a camp mishap may cost us a key player or two, who need to be replaced...or their position deepened behind the next man up...just my take.
                Adopted Bolt: Kimani Vidal RB

                Final prediction: Latham OT, Colson LB, Sainristil CB,Rice WR, Zinter OG, Nourzad OC, MacLachlan TE, Vidal RB, Lovett DT

                  Also...after a third of the season...we are winning, but have an achilles heel that looks to bite us in the final run or playoffs? A trade opportunity arises...but for a player who isnt cheap...another reason to keep some money in the bank...for now...

                    Did Michigan play on grass or turf?
                    UM played on grass during the time I lived there (95-2000) but they switched to some type of turf in the early 2000's. B10 overall is a mix - some do/some dont.

                      Didn't duke tout Pipkins? maybe i overstate his endorsement, pleased for any corrections.

                        IDL and FS is where I'd add, if I were to add. Think we have a good team on paper today though. Simmons > Alohi, he upgrades the starting D and creates depth insurance. Didn't see much uplift to roster for Boyd, like most here. Just another receiver in a crowded room
