I'm not against drafting a WR to be or #3 guy, but trying to be realistic about expectations if we do. It just seems like to Me we would not want to overpay a WR when it is loaded in the draft. To me Samuels can have that kind of a contract somewhere else, KC would be a good fit but dou't he get's that contract again? I do not want the other WR's either.

Anselmheifer Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 There has to be a plan at OT, right? We can’t be planning to go into the draft needing a RT to replace Wylie and a LT to replace Leno, while also drafting a rookie WB we are planning to start.

Advanced metrics suggest Wylie was around average for a RT. Definitely need to address LT but other than Jonah Williams there just arent very many, but the draft class is loaded with them.

Overpaying is relative to open market value and value to us with our own situation. Somethings are worth more then money, like I want zero parts of a rookie LT that isn't a 1st round pick with our #2 overall pick rookie QB. Ertz playing all 17 games would be a miracle, I've seen this movie before, and a rookie in the slot might save us money but cost us more. We've gone from it not being crazy to have three starting WRs in modern NFL to looking at our WR core differently everytime the topic changes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No question they sighed Mariota to be the backup. I can see us keeping 3 active QBs. Only 9 QBs played all 17 games last season (Sam Howell being one of them). Goff and Allen are the only QBs to start 17 games the last two seasons. It’s a tough gig being an NFL starting QB. Injuries happen! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris 44 Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 19 minutes ago, MartinC said: Who is on a rookie deal with a seasons recent starting experience and some good film (mixed in with the bad)? Howell has value to us still. I wouldn’t move him for less than a 4th. I doubt anyone gives us that, he’s got more value to us. Id rather have him as the backup than Mariotta tbh. I like Howell as our backup better than Mariotta also but Hoffman made the point of do you get what you can for him now as opposed to later when he walks for free with a chance to be a starter somewhere? Or If our rookie QB gets hurt or struggles and Howell outperformed Mariotta in camp (which I personally can see happening) then he certainly has a lot of value to us. Interesting dynamic. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OtisDriftwood25 Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Put me on the side that Jonah Williams is not an option. We need a left tackle and he is not one. My assumption is Peters is waiting for more options to open up. They may very well go with Wylie at RT and draft LT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It screams cap problems and possibly impacting bringing Williams back. They got a pick and were going to get nothing as a cut, good move for Houston.

Maybe 3rd. But with only 1 year left in his rookie deal after this one his value is probably lower than a 4th right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DogofWar1 Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 I feel like, barring us getting like Tyron Smith or something, maybe the best LT option this year is Jonah on a 1 year "prove it" deal. Let's us draft our maybe future LT in the 2nd in a deep draft of OTs (or hopefully at least future RT), but also gives him a chance to come in and prove to the league he can play LT. He succeeds, he leaves, gets a big honkin' payday. Whether that's here or elsewhere we'll see, but if no one is offering him LT money, I'd consider throwing him LT money for one year and saying "bet on yourself." 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree some how some were we are going to need a LT, RT and TE, that's what should have happened last year. TE's were there for the taking, OT too. We drafted 2 DB's. LT can still be had this year in the draft even a few TEs later. Value is better at WR,OT in the draft. Let's get these guys on a rookie contract. Who say's the Rookie QB has to start anyway.

Koolblue13 Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 I'm just kidding, because I love the ignings and I love grabbing two guys from the same defense, who both wanted to be here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sacks 'n' Stuff Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 If they think he can hold up and if the market dictates it, I want T Smith on a one year, 15 million dollar deal with not a lot of guaranteed money. there are definitely some talented tackles in the draft, but I think we’d have to trade up to grab a left tackle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Est.1974 Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 53 minutes ago, AlwaysBeRedskins2Me said: What about letting Cornelius Lucas be our left tackle and just sign or draft a right tackle? I think Lucas is pretty dang good. Probably the best backup tackle in the NFL in recent years. He was mentioned as a priority re-sign as our swing tackle. I think we’ll bring him back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming that we're keeping Wylie at RT, signing Lucas for swing BU, I'd be fine with Smith as starting LT 11 games next year. It also allows us a chance to wait until day three for OT projects. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
