The 2026 Free Agency Thread

Is there any chance they want to move Paul to Center and Coleman in at RG? Don't really know if that works, so I'm just spitballin'

That would be terrible. Paul can’t run block (or play center as far as we know, but ignoring that for this hypothetical lol), and Coleman was pretty bad last time we saw him at guard.

If we went with that OL configuration I’d spend the entire season trying to pinpoint our next head coaching hire because it would already be over (spoiler alert: I’ll be doing that anyways unless we start hot)
 
Wow, very possible we end up with a downgrade at center.

I think yall just liked saying Badass too much. He was good and it is a head scratcher but im sure they have a plan.

No doubt they have a plan but not all plans pan out either and this might just be another example of that.

What part of this off-season gives you confidence they have a plan?

And I’m sure they have a guy they like. Doesn’t mean they’re going to get him.

Linderbaum would be a direct upgrade, for instance. But we have to get him. And pay him.

We created a hole where there wasn’t one, with Tunsil needing a contract extension as well and several high end needs to save 2.83M.

On no planet does this make sense.

Yes, I’ll be amped if we get Linderbaum. But what will the money we have to put into Linderbaum stop us from signing?

It doesn’t make sense.

I can totally buy that Biadasz is not the ideal center for our offense and what Blough/Quinn want to do. I can also buy that he’s a bit overrated just because he’s steady and above replacement level at a position where it feels good to set and forget a starter for a few years, as a fan.

But I cannot buy that we actually have a high likelihood of improving upon Biadasz this year, especially when we already have so many needs and places to spend our cap space (if we do). What’s the plan? Why do I never feel comfortable with our apparent plans?

Which, this all means I cannot buy that this is going to help this regime keep their jobs. So it’s confusing even if in a vacuum I can acknowledge that Biadasz is nothing special

THIS IS THE PROBLEM.

Biadasz is better than average, imo. But it’s not even that part that frustrates me. It’s that now we have a hole across THE ENTIRE LEFT SIDE OF THE OFFENSIVE LINE.

Left Guard and Center… and Tunsil needs an extension.

Make it make sense. Please. I beg someone.
 
Super bizarre move.

Yes whether they have a plan or not, that plan better reveal itself pretty much immediately or this was reckless.

Once again, this is either AP's own thinking or it's an over-reliance on a coach's thinking. Unclear. What we can say, if this doesn't work out - the process is very broken. I guess we'll see but the early returns on season-3 are not looking hot.
 
Well whatever the case, sometimes this is what process over results looks like. So we will see, ultimately. I know a lot of us like to say: if they are doing their jobs, they need to be seeing more than we do. So sometimes a move won’t make sense to us.

Now we wait to hear more on the reasoning, to see how they replace, and to see the effect come game time.
^^ trying to spin positive here but it is hard to see this making sense

I’m sure they’ll have reasons. They always do. They just don’t always make a whole lot of sense.

I don’t know.

This regime is not growing on me. They are going to have to absolutely ace this offseason for me to be back in on them.
