Edmunds is the easiest one to transition from to pick up a big chunk of money. The other choice is ask him to restrure his contract. Edwards isn't getting paid a big contract, Jackson would have to be the MLB.

If traded, they will be around draft time, not post 6-1. I don't think they trade DJ, more like restructuring his contract. Edmunds may be the odd man out with the play of Jackson. If they want to keep any of the big contracts, I see many restructuring before they trade them.

Swift has played like a nunber one RB in this league. This thread will not age well.

It's rare for a rookie to have a big impact his first year ,I agree with that but that's where we need to see growth for players in our system already. Booker is starting to make plays, Dayo comes back, if healthy maybe we see why Poles seen in him . Joe Tryon -Shoyinka has had some moments.

Actually if Edmunds is back,he is good at defending the pass. -
We didn't really know what to expect but had positive vibes when we hired BJ. We had questions about LT, the running game and the pass rush. Will Caleb be better? At 10-4, I think it's fair to say we have one of the best offensive minds in the league. LT appears to have a prospect. The running game is clearly better than most expected. We still need more pass rush of which I think we will address in the draft. There won't be anymore big free agent signings and trading for a big salary, it won't fit our Cap. Booker seems to be coming around, hopefully a Dayo (not injured) can give us help because his contract doesn't allow us to get rid of next year. I think we will be drafting a DE, DT and S at the front on the draft, it's probably the only help we have coming.

With these injuries, the Packers are favored by 3 points, Vegas still doesn't believe.

We can only play the players the other team puts on the field. It's about wins and if we have an easier path, so be it.

The betting line has the Packers favored by 3 points. I think I'm making my bets now. -
I've been sleeping and waking up to comments. Odds of us ever having a perfect game is small but I'll take an not perfect win of 31-3 every day. A lot of people speak of being 10-4 , we haven't played a lot of good teams. I don't care. What I see week to week is we are capable of playing well against anyone. I hope we go 3-0 to finish the season but 1-2 or 2-1 would be okay as long as we beat the Packers and make the playoffs. We are starting to get healthy overall as a team as other people lose people. Poles found Wright, G-Johnson, D Jones, Joe Tryon-Shoyinka even played well today. The combo of BJ and Poles is starting to look Super Bowlish.

We lead the league in missed games for players in the league. So we can only play the team in front of us. We have played games with 6 starters out on defense and no one said they wish we were healthy. Caleb had a good game , We ran the ball well, and TOs. BJ said we will be playing our best ball in December. Sure Cleveland isn't a good team but their defense is third in the league with the top pass rusher and it didn't slow us down. -
Agree, Caleb didn't exicute the play properly. Kmet went up for the ball and Caleb didn't put enough zip on it. Had Caleb threw to the corner, Kmet would have kept going to the ball. If we got this TD, we still had to get a 2 point conversation, so I'm not sure if we would have won the game. BJ said he would have went for 2. It would have been a lot more interesting to see the call Ben makes for the 2 points.

There's lots of pundits breaking that play down. IMO, if continues to the sidelines, he easily beats his chasers but he slowed down to do his reads. DJ wasn't open yet but did get open after he committed to throw to Kmet. I think he threw where it went thinking Cole could climb the ladder against a 5'10" S but he didn't zip the ball. I think if he threw to the corner, Kmet could have reached the ball. Caleb failed on execution, it was a great play call.

I get the impression, you will only be happy with perfection. I get the growth we have to see from Caleb but I'm afraid, this year, we're only going to see small increments from him. I think a lot of his flaws will only be fixed off season but at this stage we are still winning games and can't be unhappy about that. I think we have to look at this as his first year with BJ and accept it's not all going to happen at once. Because he was the first pick, I, as others, expect it quickly.
