Come to think of it, depending on how the new staff views Sam Cosmi, the RG position could be more of a need long-term as well. I may want to move guard up a position or two. *edit* forgot to note that Cosmi is in the final year of his rookie contract.

When you have a guy signed for $3.6 mill, it's hard to up it to $6 or 7 mill ( Year 2024 )to get an extension done . Forward thinking ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is in the final year of his contract and who knows what his contract demands would be and what the current staff/F.O. value him at. I personally think he did a pretty good job at guard even with the incompetence on both sides of him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MKnight82 Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 1 hour ago, Slappy Mc said: Considering we just signed a guy who "wants to start" to a 3 year deal, I think backup LG is a need but the position is not a high priority, IMO. Paul is a solid backup LG and Stromberg can flex there too. I don’t see backup Guard as a need at all. The guy we just signed is basically a backup level guy too. What we need is a legitimate starter. I don’t see how LG is any different than the RT or RE positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the purposes of this season, those positions are filled. The backup spot preferably goes to someone you draft with hopes of them developing into a starter. They clearly feel confident in who Allegretti is as a player to plug and play him at LG. I agree with the masses that it screams Andrew Wylie to me, but I trust this group of personnel decision makers much more than the previous one. I think adding a guard is a strong play in the draft. I wouldn't mind getting Zak Zinter as that guy and giving him a redshirt year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Stromberg subbed in at RG not LG or am I wrong? I do think Cosmi needs a backup. His health is not dependable. If Stromberg is the primary backup for Center and RG, I am pretty sure he sees some playing time. I think Left Guard is definitely a position we need to consider in draft. Allegretti is a bit of fools gold. He started the superbowl and was super super tough, but he didn't win the starter position in regular season. He can start but he isn't some sure fire 17 game a season starter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Allegretti will fair better than Wylie did and somehow Wylie seems to be coming back for a second season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a lot of low bars on the roster, but that is starting to change. All signs are trending up for this franchise. It's a good time to be a fan.

RSkinGM Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 You guys figure we pick a W R in this draft, maybe as high as round 3 ? We don't much there past Terry and Dotson ( and he hasn't been all that much ) Is there anyone out there in F A might be a fit ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
