You could be right we have a bevy of ideas on here. Trade any D player, it's not good anyways. SF is successful and are worst in the league in sacks. I just want us to get a run in the playoffs with a powerful offense, the modern day NFL. Houston have 2, 14 and 13 sacks. Denver has one 1 at 12.5, Rams have one at 11 sacks. We have Sweat with 9.5. Other than Houston, hard to say edge players make that much of a difference.

We have limited cap space, probably be around 5 to 6 mil, so the only way to get more is redo contracts or dump big salaries thru trade or cuts. Offensively DJ,Kmet, Swift are the contractors that may be dealt. IMO they keep this offense together one more year since we are so close to being a high octane scoring team. I think Swift has played his way into the lead role and won't leave on the last year of his contract. Maybe they extend him another yr to get the 26 Cap hit down. I think more likely to redo both DJ and Kmet for more money instead of dealing them. Depth has been important this year as every WR and Loveland has missed games or not 100 % been healthy. I think both are here one more year. Defense has been terrible and I don't care who stays or who goes. Edmunds was an all star before injury and clearly affected him coming back. I think for sure he won't be here. If any player that are most entitled it's JJ. I don't think he's been 100% and hasn't played well since back . He signs a contract then before he comes back there was rumor he wanted more money. Those are the two contracts I would like to see gone for Cap space. Dayo and Jarrett haven't been worth it but contracts won't allow them to leave until 27. I think a priority should be bringing back Byard besides his play is the defense leader. Him and Edwards fill those roles. Terrell Smith will be back so I think we could afford to lose JJ. Sweat is a 2nd tier edge but until we replace him, he won't be leaving. I think Booker is getting better every week and will have a breakout season next year. Don't really care about who else stays or goes. Would like to see them bring back Wright, Gad-Johnson, and D Jackson but trust BJ and Poles to figure that out.

Nice video

Aren't those the same games that Rome has missed? He took Romes targets? I remember when a lot of fans ( not speaking to this group) complained about our first two picks instead of filling other needs. Both of these are home runs and leds me to be patient when viewing roster construction.

Diggs has been terrible this year, not sure he can help anybody for a few games. He's young enough to take a chance next year he regains form. The DB coach in GB was his college coach. That might have been a stronger connection for him.

This video explains why being negative may be a short sighted point of view.

Here's a complete look at the off season and will say I agree with some and not with others moves. I'll post my view after I study the draft more but this is a first look at the off season.

If you claim him off waivers you bring his contract where as if you sign him as a free agent, new contract. . None of his contract is guaranteed going forward. Cheap opportunity.

That's a common sense idea but with Geno Smith getting paid a lot of money with no out until 27, he probably sets for a year limiting the advantage of bringing in Thuney. Plus I see no way BJ is disturbing our OL after just getting a good one.

Doubt that happens this year but with the connections, very possible for next year. I didn't realize he was 27. Al Harris can change his luck around.

We do agree on stuff sometimes.

QBs come and go and every once in a while, an Aaron Rodgers pops up. We now could have that next great one playing in our house. Thank you Ryan Poles for Caleb and BJ, I think we won the lottery.

From the Raiders point of view, Thuney probably has 2 yrs left , why would Raiders want a high salary player when it's at least 2 yrs away from being respectable? I think any rebuilding team will want draft picks. I also thing we are at the beginning of a high powered offense and I don't think BJ is giving away offense assets to disrupt the flow of what he's built. The best OL we have, Thuney? Any weapons? Injuries this yr shows you need more than 3 Wrs and I TE. Zacchus and Devin will be gone next year.

Like Mongo said, being home is the key. West coast teams coming here would be an advantage to us. Out of our control anyways.

Thanks

Hicks is a great example that all players don't develop immediately. He bounced around two teams until he landed here and finally found his game. A lot people get down on a player if he don't look good his first couple of years. Some just take longer and we have several on this team. Dexter hasn't been bad but isn't a star of which some people expected. He works hard and it may be next year before he stands out. Edwards was a UDFA and worked his way to a starring job in Philly. Has been a very consistent player since coming here.

I think something great than no one talks about is he's never missed a game to Injuries. That's unique in this NFL these days.

If not this year but next year. With 11 wins and playoff bound, plenty other things to talk about.

I think Laporte getting injured hurt them a lot. A few OL are different this year but BJ being gone is a big hit.

Who would you prefer to face in the first game? GB, SF or LA? IMO the Packers are the weakest of those three. LA lost to Atlanta last night and looked beatable. I least would want to face SF that's running hot right now.

The way both them coaches are risk takers and competitive, no way either relax in this game.

Wait until Caleb hits his stride, 200 yards more for each player.

Billings has fallen off but not due to effort. I seen him several times 30 yards down field chasing players.

I agree with your ranking but I don't think a offense on the rise will want to get rid of any weapons. I think DJ and Kmet are here one more year. Look at injuries with the Wrs and even TE, we needed all of them. Poles will restructure money and figure something out with a pass rusher. Imagine the same situation this year without DJ when Burden and Rome out. It would disable us.

The other high picks were put into first back roles. Easley could have his 1000 rushing but adds great value as a 2 headed monster. Probably the best value pick in this draft. In a redraft I think he would be a 2nd round pick IMO.
