Est.1974 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 I mean we are just trawling around adding depth here. 2 year 5mil, likely means 2m cap hit this year, knocks someone else out the cap calculation, net effect 1.5mil cap increase. So, very small change for a depth/swing tackle. that said, I think it is fair to say it’s generally uninspiring so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas got backup money. This makes it seem like Geron could be the starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta fill holes on the first, second, and third layers of the depth chart... especially with new systems on both sides. Scheme fit is imperative. I'm with you. The weakness of the Cerrato years was that we had good starters, but the moment a starter got injured or needed to be subbed out we were dead in the water. The last few years injuries decimated us. The NFL is a game of attrition. You need good back ups. It's also nice to have hungry guys who might be backups now, but have the potential and will to fight for more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are the guys who will be forced into the starting lineup in October due to injuries, then go on IR themselves in November. If you want to see the guys who will be playing in December, go look xfl rosters. I'm ok with Lucas signing. He isn't being brought in to be the future LT. just depth. At 6 ft 9 in, he is a tall dude. Let's hope he continues to improve here. Remember, there wasn't much fanfare when we signed ty nsekhe. That worked out pretty well.

Not that I'm giving up on him, but he hasn't shown much. I think you can pencil Lucas into swing tackle role, not a starter, and skins will try to bring in Penn, or a FA such as Peters, to fill starting LT. Or maybe that guy who played LT for us for awhile who hasn't been moved yet, ole what's his name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between AP, gurley, and guice, we'd have a total of 0 good knees. But if we add Bryce love to the mix, that gives us one good knee at least. Progress!

Gald they are not doing stuff to please folks like you who love big-name players. Folks that love winning the offseason. I will for once like to have a team built with players who when they beat you, you are left scratching your head asking, "who are these guys?" The culture is changing. They are not going for big-name players. They are going for football players that will play hard, play smart and compete. Ps., don't forget in a hurry the contributions from the likes of Donald Penn, Nate Orchard and even the entire secondary later on in the season. They played hard. I can't imagine how good they could be if they had a full training camp, understood the schemes and the playbook. I like players with something to prove.

Est.1974 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Cap space down at about 35mil. Trade Dunbar and Trent gets in back to 50mil. Restructure Kerrigan, Extend Scherff likely gets us to 55-60mil range again. We are playing the small game now. I’m sure we’re going to blow our wad on something(s) soon.....

Don't think it's happening this year. There's really not that much worth buying at this point. I guess you never know who might come free, but I suspect it's an attempt to carry over more into 2021. If you really wanted to spend now, it's like playing a fantasy sports auction league and leaving too much money on the table. Then just buying Joe Flacco for $40 bucks because he's the best option left and you had money to burn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
