I was more thinking for slot CB though. So, why not both? I don’t think Lewis is going to be too expensive & like I said he’d be a good slot addition. Then sign one of the other two for the outside. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaiphoon Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 21 minutes ago, turtle28 said: I agree. Presumably we’re going OT at #2. After that I think it’s a definite we should take an OT with one of our 2nd round picks who may start right away at either OT spot. I think you meant QB. And I agree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaiphoon Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 BTW - I'm sure you guys covered this already but this situation we're in with all this cap space, the #2 pick and 5 picks inside the top 100 picks should make it VERY easy to assess just how good Peters is as a GM. It's not like the previous administration hamstrung him with being under the cap (thereby forcing him to cut players he wanted to keep) or we finished with late 1st (or no 1st) round pick. With all of this, we should be able to "evaluate the evaluator" much easier. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that we’re adding multiple guys and not just overpaying for a few guys the way we used under Snyder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairly team friendly deals that are max 3 years so that we can get out of them in 2 without too much issue. We're actually being smart for once 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as there are no set backs, I could see him being put on PUP & being ready in mid-October. I’d be shocked if he’d miss an entire season, unless there are setbacks/other issues with the knee.

Yeah, true. we're signing guys who are (mostly) in their prime and are good rather than washed up has-beens and guys who either didn't fit the scheme or just weren't any good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well also Rivera did this, he just signed washed Panthers or certain Panthers who were clearly back ups. Then, he mostly did bottom bargain shopping in FA & relied a lot on the young guys he drafted except on DL which he inherited except for Chase, but even with Chase, Rivera did inherit the #2 pick. It’s pretty damn Clear that Peters & Quinn are building a better and deeper roster & it’s still super early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offbyone Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 1 hour ago, turtle28 said: I’m all for that. I’d like to sign Tyron Smith as a place holder though while we draft an OT in R2 who can develop behind Smith for a year & maybe start at RT making Wylie expendable. I’d like to re-sign Lucas too, I could go either way on it. Plus the Cardinals just cut DJ Humphries who’s coming off a torn ACL but he played for Kingsbury in Az & shouldn’t be too expensive on a prove it deal. Tyron Smith will not be a placeholder at the contract he will sign. I would bet he will sign something like a 4 year deal with 25M/year with 70 guaranteed.

We’re not talking about Trent Williams here who was mostly healthy his entire career. If it’s going to cost that for the oft-injuried Tyron Smith than I’d rather re-sign Lucas or someone like that & draft an OT to compete with that guy & Wylie at RT to start.
