Only guys I'd want to sign would be Eiffert or Seferian-Jenkins. i read 'back injury' and went 'ehhhh' with Eifert. I just want people who can stay healthy more than anything right now ha. ASJ has appeal, but he's underachieved everywhere so far. Maybe Cameron Brate on the RFA designation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll probably tag him at a 2nd, how is losing a pick and shelling out money more appealing than just signing Graham? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cannondale Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Mark me down as thinking we have much bigger fish to fry than TE. If we're talking a FA - put that money in the defense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure if Ziggy Ansah/Demarcus Lawrence hits FA Id throw 60/4 at him and go for the TE in the draft, but there's no way they don't get franchised, even so that would be Ted going after the top line FA, never happens. I wish we could sign a top pass rusher, but I don't see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a list of all available players, but if you can't fix the defense, what's the point ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You draft some pass rushers and hopefully sign a modest priced CB like House was. Hopefully King, Jones, Adams, Biegel make a nice jump. However, you make sure Rodgers has every weapon needed to outscore teams of it comes to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squire12 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Brate: 26 years old, RFA in 2018, was undrafted Tre Burton: 26 years old UFA, listed as a WR on spotrac Either would be nice options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norm Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 I like Trey too. He needs deserves more chances but has been buried some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skibrett15 Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Pederson will pound the table to keep burton. That guy was their entire red zone offense in Wentz's rookie year for the first 8-10 weeks. Then they realized Ertz was healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may pound the table for him, but they also have to pay him and have the $$ to do so. PHI is over the cap for 2018 (until the increase in cap is factored in), but that will not leave them a lot of room with rookies and other FA they may have to sign.

Shanedorf Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Speaking of TE's.... Would you rather have a Cook-type who is fast and can challenge in the passing game, or a Bennett-type who can actually block in the run game ? Of course we'd love to have one who can do both, but given the unicorn nature of that combination - which skill set would you value more in 2018 ? Pass catching or blocking ?
