Get one of Zeitler, Lang, Warford, Leary, or Wagner to help the oline
Get one of Gilmore, Bouye, Prince, or Ryan
Sign Kyle Juszczyk at FB
Draft Jamal Adams in the 1st and trade up for Christian McCaffrey in the 2nd
On to compete for a division title
Quote:In my original post I suggest we sign Calais Campbell. We already have Malik Jackson and Abry Jones. Calais Campbell and Sheldon Day would give is one of the very best groups in the NFL.
They just signed Jackson to a huge deal. They aren't going to pay what the market will bear for Campbell.
You also might need to think about how Marks and Jackson play one position technically and Miller and Jones play another, different position.
They aren't all interchangeable in functionality in base formation.
Would also love to bring in Dwight Freeney
Quote:Sign ( overpay ) Kevin Zeitler, AJ Buoye & Calais Campbell in Free Agency.
Cut Mercedes Lewis, SenDerrick Marks, Roy Miller, Davon House & Dan Skuta.
Extend Telvin Smith, Brandon Linder & Allen Robinson.
This sets up a favorable draft scenario ;
Edge
OG / OT
TE
CB
QB
RB
How would you change it ?
I want Hightower, Zeitler, and Gilmore. If we are lucky enough to get Allen to drop to 4, we are really cooking!
Quote:I dont think you know what the market is for players these days
Spotrac says Jefferson is worth 5.78 mil per year and that Cyprien is worth 4.9 mil per year. What are you thinking ?
Quote:Spotrac says Jefferson is worth 5.78 mil per year and that Cyprien is worth 4.9 mil per year. What are you thinking ?
I think Jefferson gets around 8 mil. Cyp is a tough one for me. I would say he is worth about 4 or 5 for some teams but I think he get overpaid.

That sounds about right, I wouldn't go over 5 million for Cyp.

Agree with you but Wagner is a RT and would love to have him but we MUST get a RG from the first four you listed.
Also what about a RDE. We MUST get one.
Sign Warford ,Gilmore and Devin Taylor (DE)
Draft 1) Allen DE
2) Tyler Moton G/T
3) Perine RB
4) Josh Jones SS
5) Micheal Roberts TE

he is a RT and I think we can find a guard in the draft easier than a tackle. Would love to get a guard but if we just sign one of those in FA and it was Wagner I would be more than happy. You won't be able to fill every position in FA, that's just the reality of it.

The Jags would have love to sign JPP and pay him over 14 mil per year. I see Campbell getting 12 mil and he is a perfect complement to Jackson. Jones and Day would functionall back them up.

Josh Jones is our starting SS?
Warford
Webster(bronco corner)
Freeney
A FB
Round1:Jamal Adams
Round2:Jalen Tabor
Round3:Moton

If wins the battle in camp..of course.
Quote:I want Hightower, Zeitler, and Gilmore. If we are lucky enough to get Allen to drop to 4, we are really cooking!
And what would you do with Hightower if you got him?
Play him at the SAM and leave Jack the odd man out?
Move Jack to MIKE, get rid of Poz?
Sign Hightower as a backup and just give him a lot of money for the heck of it?
Hightower's only fit here would be SAM imo, because he isn't a WILL and he's nothing more than a 2 down MLB.
At the SAM, you'd then be signing a guy for a lot of money, only to play 20-30% of the defensive snaps.
Quote:You are selling Marks short. Marks was coming off an ACL injury and started the season off slow but you could tell as the season went on he was getting his strength back and started to play much better down the stretch. You act like 4 mil. is a lot of money for a 3 tech that can put pressure on the QB and is good against the run. Who can you get for that price tag that is better?
Marks is one of the worst run defenders at the position and has been for 6 or 7 years. He is now just average at rushing the passer. His ACL was in 2014 (possibly) so if correct, his excuse Year was 2015 not 2016.
Campbell is in top three in both.

Webster could be a great shout.
Quote:He's not worth 4 million. He's worth quite a bit more and he'd get it elsewhere if he were released.
Which one is worth quite a bit more than 4 million ?

I wonder about that.
We're not going to keep the Gus Bradley scheme on defense. Is there a reason why a team couldn't play two 3Ts at the same time instead of a 3T and a 1T? Neither Stroud nor Henderson was a 1T. Why not use Marks and Jackson together. A LB group of Telvin, Jack, and Poz could certainly cover up for any failure in run defense caused by using two pass rushing DTs.
"EDGE" is not a position.
We need a RDE or LDE.
