dante9876 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Saying Lee is a very promising linebacker seems kind of a stretch to me. But its the same exact argument last year, when he was drafted. Wait and see, Potential, scheme, coaching and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roninho Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 5 hours ago, Humble_Beast said: my guess of needs for 2019: RB- Lynch another year older TE- Cook turned 31 and last year of his contract WR- Nelson and Bryant both question marks for different reason. could pan out! MLB- yet to address position Possibly DE- Edwards is on one year contract. He could be gone in 2019, or have a great year and retained possibly CB- Conely has yet to prove himself those are potential needs for 2019 Add OT, DT and pass rush as potential need as well. All depending on which players of this years draft pan out. For example If PJ Hall turns out to be JAG, and Hurst isn't cleared to play then DT stays a need.

NightTrainLane Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 2 hours ago, drfrey13 said: Or we can invest in a good MLB that really knows how to play the position with a good work ethic then start taking late round flyers that can learn from said player and advance beyond their natural abilities. That is part of the reason why certain teams have particular positions that they churn out good players at specific positions every year no matter how highly thought of the prospect is when they come out. Coaching and scheme play a part also but learning by example is a huge part also. Saying it doesn't make it so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaidersAreOne Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Former Chief MLB Derrick Johnson is coming in for a visit today. Not a good sign for us and Bowman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I'm saying that stating this over and over won't make it happen. And by the way, I think the young LBs have learned alot from Bowman and Riley in the last few years.

Yup, solid vet that everyone said was done last year and still performed well and produced. Another MENTOR for the young guys. We'll see if we can get him in at the right price.

Hell the team prefers Bowman as well but I bet he he has a firm price he will strap up for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humble_Beast Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 since we released Bryant DE we should sign Lamar Houston. can never have enough pass rushers and he would provide great depth Would make 3 more moves DE: Lamar Houston, Junior Gallatte, or Elvis Dumerville TE: Juluis Thomas or Antonio Gates CB: still good corners for depth and competition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id bet on him never catching a pass again before id bet he could help any team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
