    I've tried Several times to watch this guy's videos but I just can't.

     

    I watched 15 minutes of this one and gave up.

    He rambles and rambles and rambles, 

    There was about 2 minutes worth of content in that video stretched out to 34.

    Yes, I have trouble also with that.  Debated putting it on but figured if people didn't like it they could just not watch it.

    Completely disagree. We had a high school coach for our secondary after firing our first one and our DC. It's hard to judge any of our players from last season because our HC, OC and DC were all awful.

    Totally agree on evaluating players especially in the secondary.  I think next year we might find some solid players if they are used in the right scheme and role.

  3. I was just admiring the toilet paper picture.  I couldn't really give an opinion on who is better or worse of the top QB's. In fact, it would not surprise me if Michael Pratt was not the best QB in the draft.  The best scouts have not been accurate on whether a QB can make it in the NFL throughout history so even though I like the information on QB's on this forum, I do not take it too seriously.

    Based on Re-calibrate vs Re-build, I don't see them going that quiet in FA this year.  I don't see 2-3 100+ million deals, but the coaching staff doesn't want status quo and it can't all come from the draft.  The coaching staff hires were a blend of experience and up-and-comers, I expect a similar approach to the player side of the offseason.

     

    I see some arguments for trading back, even though it would still surprise me.  

     

    Also, they need to have a 4 year rolling average cap spend of 89%.  The example I gave above is right about the 89% mark (not that we need to hit that mark each year).  With rollover, they'd be at 130ish million with no big ticket players needing to be re-signed (Cosmi and Davis are the only names I see as maybes, and they won't be massive deals).  Jonathan Allen and McClaurin come up again in 2026, but no other big ticket players are appearing (at least from what we've seen so far).  

     

    Saving money and then spending big in FA future doesn't work out in reality.  This article below talks about how it rarely bounces the way you'd expect.  With few internal players to spend on, combined with the desire to get some players to help change the culture, I think intentional roster churn is going to happen and FA will be needed to make it happen.

    Excellent educational response.

  5. If we can get a Trey Lance type trade for no. 2, then I would take it.  This is a great draft to have many picks and can look to trade up next year with extra no, 1 picks.  I would be somewhat conservative on free agent signings, saving cash for next year.  My objective would be having a solid offensive line and defensive line set for some years.  A trade with Atlanta should give us Fashanu, in the first, a franchise type center with their 2nd, with our draft picks hitting on a deep draft class of wide receiver and BPA.  To me, this year, is fairly undefined.  We might find out some of our disasters (Forbes) under the old regime might be solid starters. I am a bit reluctant to take a huge leap until we figure out what we have.  I would prefer another bad season maximizing what we have and securing resources for the future once we know what we have, than a better season with more undefined data for the future.

    I watched a Youtube video and read a couple articles about Air Raid. I can say with absolute certainty that Air Raid is a gimmick and the worst thing to ever grace the NFL, and Kingsbury is incapable of learning from his one stint managing an NFL. The book on him and his philosophies was written over 4 years, and it's written in stone. The season is over.

    excellent- we should win the off-season next year, too.
