I think Taylor is gone.

They resign Key.

Dilla seems to think Baalke goes after Poona Ford from Seattle.

I think they sign 1 person none of us were expecting and then some mid level dudes.

I agree, if Taylor chases the money he is gone. We will not be the highest bidder despite his pass blocking ability the deficit in run blocking can't be overlooked. Chances are some other pass happy team will pay up big time.

I don't see Key as a full time starter, more of a very valuable role player. Until last year the most he ever made was 1 million. We paid 4 last year and he delivered when he was on the field. This one depends on Taylor. Taylor signs Key (maybe even Agnew) is gone, is a $ thing.

These guys are very opportunistic and while we have pushed some money into the future I believe they really would rather not push any more than they really need to. This is the reason I am not expecting any big splashes in the coming weeks. We are in the draft and develop mode. 

We have the skill players and now need more beef for the O and D lines.
