Something massive is going to have to change for Kirk to earn his money. 982 yards is close enough. It's like that one year Cecil Shorts missed the last game or two with a concussion and finished just shy of 1k. He's a thousand yard receiver imho, he was also a distant option behind Fitz & DHop for years. I think Kirk is just scratching the surface of his ability and should shine here.
Championship Formula:
1) Draft Trevor Lawrence! 2) Play good physical Defense! 3) Keep 91% of the roster healthy! 4) ??? 5) Blank #2 6) CHAMPIONSHIP!!!

To be fair, Kirk also played 17 games. 1k was already an arbitrarily low line since 60 yards per game wasn't all that, now it's even lower.
It feels like we are shifting back to a 4-3.
It makes sense based on the 2 signings today. We have some pretty nice pieces to pull that off actually and Hutch seems like a better fit as an end. Allen had his best year as an end. Jack’s best fit is olb in a 4-3. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

It is not like they will just get the perfect situation for their rebuild given NFL player priorities and what they think of Jax, other teams, Baalke, etc. Basically, cannot let the perfect be the enemy of good, especially for this team/franchise right now.
Yikes, wish I didn't see what the Packers got Devondre Campbell to re-sign for.

We've got cap space, Josh Allen is the only one of our players we will likely have to pay significant money in the next year or 2. What were we supposed to do? Sit on our hands again and hope there are better free agents to throw silly money at next year?

Obviously we are going to have to overpay compared to most other teams, but at least we could do it on pass rushers and outside wide receivers and not guards, off ball linebackers, slot receivers, and nose tackles.

It is not like they will just get the perfect situation for their rebuild given NFL player priorities and what they think of Jax, other teams, Baalke, etc. It is quite possible they have tried to go after those positions and the players are not interested or have even a higher premium. Plus like you have admitted, they needed upgrades at the positions they got as well. This franchise will never be run like the Steelers/Patriots no matter how much you want them to be.
I Like these additions. Still need a TE and a nickel. As we have seen other teams do for years, the money being thrown around just demolishes the veracity of a spending cap. Much in the way what science invents, science can circumvent. So can accountants with salary caps. With that said, go get those two positions and add another WR and Olineman. try and get Damian Wilson back ( or let Shaq and Russel split time) and kick Myles to OLB, add a nickel like Nelson and the defense is ready to rock
In Baalke we trust! lol
Love the Scherff signing (he is better than Norwell) Kirk is a good sign too imo (hopefully not super expensive) Tbh I don't know anything about the LB Who is the other signing? I am a fan, not a cheerleader. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

It's been a good dayShould we go back and find all the posts where you said you didn't want Kirk? I’d still rather not for that money but he’s here now so I hope he lives up to it. I always said he a good slot WR. Pay attention! A lot of money for a slot WR

Would be happy with Christian Watson or Trey McBride at pick 33. I think Alec Pierce with his size and speed should be considered at 65 or 70 as well.(03-14-2022, 03:39 PM)Firesky Wrote: 982 yards is close enough.

I smell a unexpected cutting or two. Miles Jack? How much space would that save? The Wilson guy out played Jack last year.

He definitely has some games where he's not consistent but he also has those big boom games. 18 million a year is a lot but it's FA and the FA WR class was limited. They were always going to have to shell out a ton. |
