NJ Raider Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 26 minutes ago, NightTrainLane said: More camp fodder. We now have 78 players on the roster before a draft where we have 11 picks and UDFAs will, of course, be in the mix. Just making the 90 is gonna be competitive like Gruden and Reggie have been saying. I think these things need to be kept in mind. Our cap looks bad atm but we will have 25 less players by August. Just hope Mack doesn’t hold out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They cut King for his antics but sign a guy like Bryant who was frequently suspended. Good ol Chucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, King was a headache in the lockerroom and on the field, Bryant was a knuckle head off the field. Kinda like Aldon Sm...I can't even finish his name, I'm so disappointed.

Yeah I’m not a fan of that particular signing. Maybe Guenther likes him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJ Raider Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Don’t think we are giving Bryant three mil. A guy who is on the field 4-5 times a game shouldn’t be getting personal fouls or calling his own fakes. Dancing over punts is ridiculous when you’re 6-10. Taking a flyer on Bryant and I’m cool with it. Guy can get after qbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roi34 Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 guard to guard is out strength. Penn being 17th highest paid tackle isnt even that much considering he is prop top 10 LT imo. Gabe just needs a restructure but I'd have to trade him unless its for a 2nd rounder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJ Raider Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Lynch and cook are free agents after this year. I could see us drafting an Irvin type at some point in the draft. If it were up to me, if we don’t get a tackle first two rounds, I would just wait until next year. Not sure any of those other guys are better than Kirkland, Alexander, ware, and sharpe.

I'm almost certain there are 5-6 tackles better than them in this draft: McGlinchey, Williams, Wynn, Brown, Crosby, Jones, Rankin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said outside of the first 2 rounds, which with any luck a Crosby or Rankin couls slide to our 3rd. But its a really weak year for OTs so i expect demand weighing so much over supply will lead to teams reaching for talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golson 500 K guessing he is young minimum isn't much Bryant 500 K Giacomini 1m Harris 1m Manuel 800 K K Smith 2m Lamur 800 K Nelson 2M that would leave us with around 2-3 M in cap space. I like all the depth signings just don't like the L Smith, Giacomini, and Nelson.. guys are just lousy football players and could have signed an impact player with that 5-6 m those 3 cost...

Former top 3 LT, and coming off an injury. Labeled a bust, but he is still 25. Long shot to become a player but could be a Lincoln Kennedy type of project...He would be worth a camp invite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG, did you see me include 2 Smiths. No. Look at the site. It say Keith Smith. I posted yesterday that Scott Bair checked the NFLPA, which has all the signed contracts on file, that we have 1.8mil left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
