As far as the draft it HAS to be ANY playmaker (WR or RB) on offense and CB with our first two picks. The good thing is that we should be able to get a good one at either one they decide to go with.
Agreed, MINN hooked us up after the 5-0 start to get this early. IND is the other team in the coinflip and could be in play at CB I would think so hope we win.Coin flip to see if we get 14 or 15. Still damn good IMO.
I'm happy for him as well. I truly believe he was trying to part ways with us by making Juan Castillo DC though lol. His record has been very nice since heading to KCI know some people are still bitter but you have to give it up to big red. 12-4 and a first round bye. Guy gets it done in the regular season. They might actually get to the AFC Championship this year.
I still think we needed to part ways but I'm actually happy for him.
Pederson on kendricks (from bleedinggreennation):Don't see any way Kendricks is here next year.
the only name i have heard a few times is Reich. that would suck, but having him for one year was better then nothingJust hoping we don't get poached for coaches this year too. I personally thought this staff did very well with what it had to work with.
7-9 with nothing on offense and a rookie QB. Add in so many close games and 4 loses to 10+ win teams and it makes me feel good about our future.
I agree with this. O-line needs some depth but isn't without some talent. It needs attention but isn't near as dire a need as the O-skill positions (excepting QB of course)Oline was decimated by injuries and a 10 game suspension for Johnson. Seamalu and Vaitai will be good going forward, Still need to draft guys cause you always need depth but when your down to Barbre at RT, you ain't doing much.Where does O-Line rank in that list? Just the few Eagles games I have watched this year, it seems like something that needs to be addressed as well.
He might be rightLane Johnson after game: "I felt I played pretty good out there today. I wish I could have played all season. I feel like we'd be playing next week and in the playoffs if I hadn't been suspended"
Want nothing to do with Peppers. Man without a position and doesn't cover well.Be awesome if we could get fournette or peppers
Williams is going to be a top ten pickWant nothing to do with Peppers. Man without a position and doesn't cover well.
And never a big fan of drafting RBs that high. WR doesn't seem great this year but if Williams falls to 15 take him else go CB although can get decent CB talent in the 2nd too.

Maybe. He had some medical hurdles to go through and it will be interested to see what he runs. Either way we should have a chance at a really good player. Just need to hit.Williams is going to be a top ten pick
Would LOVE to see Woods brought in. He's a quality WR and shouldn't be too terribly expensive. He's performed very well given his circumstancesLooking over the FA WR list for this year to see what's there besides the older guys and top tier/Alshon and would like to see them make a play for Kenny Stills but also wanted to get thoughts on Robert Woods? I don't watch the Bills, he's only 24 and hasn't had the best QB play so may be some upside? Then there's Wheaton from PIT I'm not as high on. We are so bad at WR we need to draft high and also hit FA.....who do you like?
i don't know, we got plenty of WR2s here right now. I'm happy to not make a huge splash in free agency this year too, but i don't know if a guy like Woods helps us tremendously with the WRs we have now.Would LOVE to see Woods brought in.

He's performed as a #1 before, and would be better than any #2 we have at the moment. Certainly a significant improvement over Nelson to this point. He's young but has more experience than what we have, and still has some more upside. The cost would be right against what we have cap wise as welli don't know, we got plenty of WR2s here right now.

Nice, starting it now.@Insein, we've hit an odd numbered year so feel free to start the new thread up whenever. Was a fun year updating the titles.
I am too. I know the sports radio angle gets brought up a lot but you guys do realize that it's like the 20 same nimrods that call in like end-of-the-world maniacs? Most people are somewhat reasonable and probably wish the big fella luck. I for damn sure will be rooting for him even if I'm sour about his use of Ware LOLI know some people are still bitter but you have to give it up to big red. 12-4 and a first round bye. Guy gets it done in the regular season. They might actually get to the AFC Championship this year.

Agreed. Fipp is #1 on "do not let go" list!Just hoping we don't get poached for coaches this year too. I personally thought this staff did very well with what it had to work with.

Another good point. Kid seems quite decent. Maybe even a little Golden Tate or Doug Baldwin to him.Would LOVE to see Woods brought in. He's a quality WR and shouldn't be too terribly expensive. He's performed very well given his circumstances
I think Stills would fit the need perfectly and we draft the #1 to develop. Not seeing where we have the money to sign Jeffrey and we already have one guy to play PED police with on the roster.If not Jefferey you HAVE to get the best deep threat out there. I don't care if it's Stills or D-Jax if the money is right.
Thinking he could be a good signing if you can't afford the big splash like Jeffrey. He seems like a guy that went pro too young and hasn't had a great QB.Another good point. Kid seems quite decent. Maybe even a little Golden Tate or Doug Baldwin to him.
Almost forgot about cook. I think I would rather have him. We could get one of those if we wanted rbIll take a star at RB though. This year will have 2 in Fournette and Cook IMO.
Maybe. He had some medical hurdles to go through and it will be interested to see what he runs. Either way we should have a chance at a really good player. Just need to hit.
I'd love Fournette or Cook I'm not high on the WRs in this draft and after the last few yrs of taking a WR high I think we're much better off going through FA. In a perfect world I'd take Pryor, Jackson, Mathews, DGB. Agholar as our 5 WRs and take a RB in the First round Fournette or Delvin Cook or one of the CBs. Being biased and a Florida fan I'd love Tabor or Wilson. I was sold on VH3 last year with our pick till we got Wentz who I loved in College. I'm a big fan of the FCS playoff system and it's one of my favorite times of College Football all year.Be awesome if we could get fournette or peppers
I think we did well with the picks of Seamulo (SP) who can play all over I think played RG/LG/RT for us already but could be replacing Kelce at C his natural Pos. Dude looks like a keeper. I think we also did well with Big V. Yeah he had a rough go to start (It's a hell of a task to guard Ryan Kerrigan in your 1st NFL Game. Welcome to the league Kid) but really did a solid job after that. If Peters hopefully comes back it gives him one more year for them to develop. I'd like them to get a veteran or two similar to Wiz. I have no problem keeping him but money could be a factor as well as him wanting to start. Draft another guy or two to develop. If We can replace Barbere I'd be happy as well and upgrade there. I don't think the line is terrible but when your down to your 4th string RT your line isn't gonna look so hot. Those two young rookies could've made it worse but they showed up and held their own. Props to them and it got them valueable game experience in the regular season.I agree with this. O-line needs some depth but isn't without some talent. It needs attention but isn't near as dire a need as the O-skill positions (excepting QB of course)
I honestly want nothing to do with Jefferey's. I was never a big fan of his in college and after that failed test and having Lane are we really gonna take another guy there like that? I get circumstances with lane are different but still that's a huge risk. Jefferey has gotten more injury prone lately as well and my cousin's Father in law is a big Chicago Bears fan. Apparently theres talk about Jefferey having a poor work ethic or something in there as well. Many DH knows more or could elaborate but I thought I heard or read elsewhere besides my cousins FIL there were work ethic concerns. Plus I don't think making a huge splash at 1 pos does us any good at all with our cap space.If not Jefferey you HAVE to get the best deep threat out there. I don't care if it's Stills or D-Jax if the money is right.
I'll be rooting for him for the Simple fact I've got some personal interest. My Cousin coached Andy's youngest son in Wrestling At Harrington around the same time the Reid's went through the issues with his older brothers. Andy offered my cousin a ticket and sideline pass for the 04 SB. One my cousin told him no as teachers couldn't accept such gifts and 2 he probably didn't want his son hearing some of the language he'd be yelling at his dad for some of his "questionable" playcalling. Andy took it in stride and laughed it off.I am too.

Fipp is a great coach and he is definitely a not go. Interesting here but what is everyones take if Reich leaves maybe we bring in Mike McCoy to replace him?Agreed. Fipp is #1 on "do not let go" list!
Under normal circumstances I wouldn't suggest paying a FA a lot of money but we don't have a normal situation at WR. The reality of the situation is that we need him....a LOT. We need a guy Carson can rely on and feed on a drive or two. We don't have anyone like that and a guy like Woods, Stills etc can't be that guy.DJackson10 said:I honestly want nothing to do with Jefferey's.

If Reich goes I'd prefer that they elevated John DeFilippo as OC and find another QB coach if possible.DJackson10 said:Fipp is a great coach and he is definitely a not go. Interesting here but what is everyones take if Reich leaves maybe we bring in Mike McCoy to replace him?
Of course he might be right. The frustrating part is he basically said by being a numbskull and doing PED's, I cost us a possible shot at the playoffs.He might be right
