We’re a talentless crap team with cap space. Sign players you know can perform. Im not necessarily disagreeing with that, but 23 won't be a good year for free agency, thus most of our building will come via the draft.

It’s not good in name value but there’s quality out there. Schweitzer is constantly one of the best rated OGs and will be a FA. A’Shawn Robinson is every bit as good as Payne. RT is actually kinda good. I think we can get at least one starting quality OL and DL via FA, and with the right offer we can upgrade CB1/2/3 from Witherspoon easily. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robinson would be cheaper I'd imagine. He doesn't have the pedigree as Payne. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
August4th Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 this dude looked like a disaster during the preseason, but looks like a pro bowl level player this season he's only 25 too..can be part of the long term solution to the line...

Him and Mason Cole have been pretty pleasant surprises. In preseason it looked like the entire OL outside of MAYBE RT was going to need to be gutted. Now, Id be happy with just focusing on the left side. Put Moore at swing or guard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OT Andre Dilliard OT Isiah Wynn DT Deron Payne I think we try to draft a #1 CB in round one or two.

43M Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 My ideal 2023 free agent signings would be something like... WR Jarvis Landry (mentor role) LG Elgton Jenkins (Immediate upgrade from Dotson) EDGE Jadaveon Clowney (should be cheap 1 year) ILB Leighton Vander Esch (assuming Jack is gone) NT Javon Hargrave or Payne (better than what we have) This is assuming we retain Bush, Sutton and Edmunds. Only one who should cost pretty big money is Jenkins. Maybe the DTs. The others should be reasonable deals. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mwalker Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 I posted this before, but I'd like to see this: Ambitious: DB C.Gardner-Johnson - upgrade at slot and big addition to secondary DT D.Payne - he'd be a great youngin' to learn under Heyward in his last years OG N.Davis - under-rated, young, good. CB R. Ya-Sin - young, tough and full of potential LB T.Edmunds - could be very good in our D. WR M.Hardman - he's not 'the answer' at slot but he's an upgrade on Sims Maybe more realistic: DB C.Gardner-Johnson DT D.Payne OG N.Davis WR M.Hardman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clowney would give me some pause as he is always injured and I’m not sure he would accept a part time role even though it would probably be beneficial for him. Jenkins and grave digger would make me very happy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on how things fall, I might double dip at DB, OL or DL. Best case scenario...we win 1 more game at most, and possibly trade down several spots to stockpile extra picks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
