In all fairness, Wilson and Johnson weren't disappointments. Also, has there ever been a good Josh?

You won't get a second for him, but Dunbar and a 5th or even a 4th for OJ Howard i'm on board. I'd also give Dunbar 7 - 8 per season but he's starting to show his true colors as a diva.

A deep WR class means you can get a fairly good one in the fourth. I wouldn’t be opposed to trading our third for two thirds later in the round if we can. I honestly can’t think of more than 12-13 teams that would need to spend a first or second or even a third on a WR although you can never have too much depth at that position. And yeah it obviously depends on what we do with Dunbar. If he stays then CB isn’t an urgent position to draft. But if we’re essentially signing two of the top three or four CB in a very weak FA crop, I would be skeptical if anything. In other words, even though we only have one legit receiver (so far), I still don’t think it’s a position of urgency. There is so much young talent on this team and I truly expect us to be a run heavy team with a large dose of RB and TE passes. We already have more depth at receiver than Ron ever had at Carolina.

Depends on term. I’d give him a 4 year 28 mil deal heavily frontloaded so that when it comes time to re-sign our first rounders we won’t be burdened by his cap hit.

With the news of Dunbar still wanting out and Trent maybe staying, out third round pick absolutely has to be a CB. I don’t care if we sign Bradbury, outside of Moreau and Moreland we have no one. push hard for Hooper in FA and draft a CB at 66. The draft depth at corner is very top heavy.

I think he’s more concerned about long term. No player wants to play on a one year deal, especially someone with an extensive injury history.

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again. No one is a sure thing until they’ve proven it in the NFL.

I mean it’s practically guaranteed in that if he’s on the team he gets paid for the year and there’s no way he wouldn’t make it. He doesn’t want a 1 year prove it deal as he probably feels like he proved it. I don’t blame him but unless Ron flat out told him to play out the last year of his deal then he’s being hasty in his judgement.

Ahem

Most of the players getting cut will say whatever they can and find whatever ties they can with teams to bump up their desirability.

I actually expect us to be a defense-driven team where I don't expect our success to be contingent upon DH thriving. I fully expect us to be a run heavy team similar to how the Steelers were their first couple of years with Ben. Now it'd be foolish to expect us to go 15-1 and then Super Bowl winners in 2021 but I do expect a significant turnaround regardless of whether or not Haskins explodes.

Don't be stupid. 16-0

That's basically how i felt. Honestly, I wished Vernon would have stuck around for one more year at 3 mil and we draft someone.

In terms of Austin Jackson, Wanogho, Niang and Isaiah Wilson, are any of them viable options at LT?

The problem with Trent right now is age (obviously). If we know we can get 3-4 of solid play from him then I'd prefer to keep him. If AT most we're getting 2 years of above average play then i'd rather see what we can get for him while he's still got value. If we bring him back instead of trading him, extend him and then watch him play average and/or have more, more detrimental injury concerns then it'll look bad. Hindsight is 20/20.
