    Ah, that’s my bad, it was supposed to say “some older, cheap vets, some pretty good young players and a few good players”. I was guessing that the high end players were more likely to come at cost-effective positions, given our large amount of needs and particularly given how FA is looking at...

    Was thinking about worst case outcomes for us and this question came to me - is there any (realistic) chance that Mendoza drops?

    So then Rivera was not loved by his players?

    Yep. I’m hoping for a blend of cheaper, capable vets, some young guys to compete, and a couple/few good players…which may have to be at more cost-effective positions like C, RB, LG, LB.

    Absolutely. I’m standing by my point though :) On a separate, but related note - as I’ve said before, Peters has a tough job this offseason. Has a ton of starting spots to fill, needs to add contributors in places, and has to improve depth in some key areas, all while (ideally) adding some...

    I disagree with your first sentence. For one, I don’t think there’s one way to build a roster. For 2, just look at our ‘24 FA/season to see the potential benefits of a high floor roster without high end FAs (and without a core of blue chip players). More importantly though, we have a roster...

    Good point about a running back being more of a sure thing. I also think it’d be a surprise if Love went before our pick given the needs of the other teams. I highly doubt it would happen, but imagine if KC jumped us knowing Love was our target? That’d be a kick in the nuts.

    As in - beefing up the oline puts less onus on adding a high end back? If that’s what you mean, I could see it. IMV (separate from what I think the FO does), I see our likely options as at least 2 of Styles/Love/Downs at 7. I really dig Styles, but going linebacker that early, particularly...

    I’m with you on Tate. I think he goes to the Titans as they’re in a similar boat to us in terms of wanting to give their young qb weapons and with FA not looking great in that regard. That same logic is why I think he’s be a great pick for us (even more so given the talk of us wanting a...

    Yeah, aside from the fact they’ve basically telegraphed that they’ll be looking to land one of the top centers (which also leads me to think they may wanna upgrade the LG spot), I’m starting to get the impression FA will be more about versatility and increasing our floor*. I don’t think it’s a...

    Had this thought as well. Also made me reconsider Keim’s reporting about them not overspending on TE. Combined, makes me think they’ll be emphasizing Bates’ and Sinnott’s run blocking, and mitigating their weakness as pass catchers by utilizing them more in PA (which, IIRC is where most of...

    And yet the players rated Rivera 2nd to last in 2023… Unsurprisingly, he ranked 26th in “efficient with the player’s time”, 27th in “listens to the locker room”.

    For me, the question is why release him now? I mean, I get the idea of wanting to do right by players and giving them ample opportunity to find a new home, but they could have waited until they had a deal in place with another center during the legal tampering period. Maybe there is something...

    “Overspending” is a tricky term given it’s sort of the nature of FA. And, not that overspending should be the goal, but I sure hope they’re willing to open the checkbook (including “overspending”) for a quality TE. IMO, we have to give our young QB a viable pass-catching TE. We can mitigate...

    So, I hear you and generally agree, I just don’t lean too much into a “younger for the sake of getting younger” mentality. If, say, we sign Likely but he gets hurt… is Sinnott a better choice to be our starting F over Ertz? Of course, that’s also why I mentioned Blough still giving...

    I absolutely want to move on from these older guys, even if they’ve still shown the ability to produce at a fair clip. Wagner especially would probably still cost 8+ mil. At a minimum, I’d hope the team tries hard to find younger replacements. For Ekler, I guess if we miss out on a bunch of...

    Semantics maybe, but if 748/5 tds, 826/5 tds, and 1015/8 tds is pedestrian, sign me up. He didn’t play in ‘25 obviously, but in the 7 games he played in ‘24, he put up better numbers than Dyami did in 16 games. Not that Dyami is a great barometer of course, but he and Zaccheus both parlayed...

    With 3 wrs and 2 edges on the roster (I think), I believe it’s a pretty safe bet we’ll have at least two of each signed, a starting caliber player and a rotational guy at each spot, and then perhaps camp competition bodies as well. Now, with that said, I wouldn’t be surprised if we’re feeling a...

    Did he really rule out Bain though? I heard it as he’d prefer a player has longer arms than not, but he also talked about the importance of the tape and guys with shorter arms making it work.

    Not to mention the dearth of (good) FA options. Desperate times/desperate measures and all that… we will need a more reasonable backup plan (to Aiyuk) than a Chris Moore type though.
