Jerry Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 (edited) I don't know how accurate this is, but if it's true, we can definitely sign a couple more players. Edited March 24, 2021 by Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason is incorrect but the number is about right. The first 4 picks are in the top 51 but they're pushing 4 players already signed out of it. My guess is we have 10.5/11.5M in cap space right now (nothing on Martin though so just going with a 3M cap hit for him). With 3.5 going on the draft class, it leaves 7/8M. And there are still restructures/extensions that could be used on Carr, Waller and Carlson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole process was about creating depth and competition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole process was about creating depth and competition. For sure. I'm just hoping we sign at least one more player. I'd be really happy if we could find some decent starters at 2-3 more positions (CB, FS, RT). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turnobili Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 (edited) wouldnt mind moving on from Jalen Richard to clear up another 3.5 mil we still need help at RT, CB, and FS (FS should be cheap based on how the market has been there) Edited March 24, 2021 by Turnobili Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven Nelson would be a great signing and then we could move Arnette to the slot. I'd also love to take a flyer on Quinton Dunbar, he's only 28, was one of the best CB's in the NFL in 2019 and fits the scheme. Very low risk/high reward type of move. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very low risk/high reward type of move. dont know that arnette can actually be full time slot. i'm like the Heyward idea more and more. like Chris Harris, he can start outside in base packages, and then kick into the slot in nickle allowing Arnette to play outside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRaider Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Our lack of interest/effort in adding a FS is pretty concerning, especially considering how important it is to have a FS that can play in single high for Bradley's scheme to be effective.

One of the biggest issues with him is that he lacks speed/length. Edited March 24, 2021 by NYRaider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
