Even more surprised that he turned it down!!! Honestly, I don't believe that report. There's no way he would have turned that down last year. That is insane money last year, especially for what he signed for. What he signed for makes it clear (to me, at least) that it was the byproduct of not getting any good offers.

TeHDruiD Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 This DE from Penn State, Jayson Oweh is a freak beast, maybe they take him with our 1st rounder Only started playing football in '16, not developed but has the attributes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So someone is being fed false info. I would assume national guy. They have a much more in depth relationship with agents since they cover the whole league.

On the other hand Dunlap just signed for 2yr/18m. I would like to get Clowney into a contract similar to those numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably just one year 8M. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonny44 Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 FA was agreat success. We don't need a lot more bodies. Trade all of our draft picks to move up in rounds 1 & 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s fair to say we could use a WR, a developmental tackle, DE, DT, LB (or two), corner (or two) and S. Quote Trade all of our draft picks to move up in rounds 1 & 2.

Kiwibrown Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Agree with lbtqi we need depth and players that can take over from the 1 year guys. Depth at dline, a boundary corner, probably 2 as good depth. Maybe a kicker and punter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trading down is good when you have a QB, DE, and LT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trading down is good when you have a QB, DE, and LT I mean, I was adamant about wanting to take Myles at 1, a QB at 1 and a LT at 10 last year. I didn’t want to trade those picks at all. I didn’t love Wentz in ‘16 so I was good with that trade. Liked the trade in ‘14. We just couldn’t spot talent for **** after we traded down, but there was plenty there. I don’t always want to trade down, but I agree, unless you love a guy at one of those spots trading down is a solid option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
