Good, would have been mad if we thought about after DaVondre.




All the more likely Josh Sweat and Milton Williams hit the market, two real targets.

We need a Center first and foremost. Then DL, CB, WR. Chase Young is a horrible option. Why no Milton Williams?

If we lose out on the bigger guys, I would welcome this move for sure. Or Christian Kirk. It wouldn't have me very excited, but they are guys who have consistently put up multiple 100 yard games in their careers.

Slower, worse blocker, better wr, equal hands, younger, more expensive to MVS.

Both would have a role in this O.

Remove Chase Young (barf). Insert dayo odeyingbo. Young large and athletic.

I think Milton Williams is my splash free agent signing I want the most.

Internal pressure is so effective and valuable on defense as it's the quickest way to the quarterback and also doesn't allow the quarterback to step up in the pocket as easily so it helps your edge guys.

I have no issues with Williams. Dude isn't great against the run but dang he raises hell on passing downs.

I'd rather have a pass rush specialist compared to a run stop specialist if I had to chose between the two. Especially with this year's draft as there a lot of DTs available who can probably come in right away and be competent against the run.

I think you can have packages of one of Williams/Wyatt on early downs and both of them obvious passing downs to wreak havoc.

Also remember Williams actually had a couple of great run stops against Jacobs in Brazil.

we can fix the pass rush using the draft though, normally I would not support the draft for DL, but there's quality DL right into the 3rd round.

I'd use slot 23 on one, and also maybe a later round pick as well, and purchase a WR and also a CB in UFA :idn:

You look at position and I look at players available for each position. You can fix any position anywhere if you acquire the right player.

Ultimately we just need a premium player in FA. I don't really care what position that premium player is but we should get one this offseason (and frankly I think we will).

Wide Reciever, Pass Rush, Cornerback are the likely premium player spots to go after. DK Metcalf and Adams look to be your premium players at Wide Out and there are couple of pass rushers who could be classified as premium whether via trade or FA. I don't see much for corners.

I like Williams because he is an inside pass rusher who has the potential to be ascending and entering the peak of his career at 26 years old this season. My concern is he decided a great game to have a breakout game (the Super Bowl). He has low mileage which makes one ask is this guy just getting started or is he a pan flasher who will regress back to his 3rd round status (and benefited playing next to Jalen Carter and Jordan Davis) after getting paid $20+ million.

Myers was acceptable at C on a rookie deal but honestly, thank god.
