[Tampering is upon us!]

give earl thomas 30M over 2 years... He can actually cover.

[Tampering is upon us!]

Why the hell would we not take flowers for 5 years at $18M per year??

[2019 WR draft / film notes]

With Doyle and Ebron both in contract years, i doubt that we bring both of those guys back. Ebron will be more expensive and this offense needs 2 solid TE's.. It's possible that one of the Iowa TE's will fall to us in the first round. I personally love Hockenson and think he'd be a great fit for our offense. Very good on the receiving end and absolutely blows people up with his run-blocking. Check out his tape, he finishes dude through the whistle just like big Q. TE is such an important piece to Reich's offense. Screw drafting the 12th best defensive linemen if we can get our next Dallas Clark. There will be plenty of receiver depth in the 2nd and maybe 3rd round. 

 

I haven't seen anyone talk about drafting a TE in the early rounds this year, but i think it's definitely on the radar for the front office with contracts for Doyle/Ebron expiring after this year. 

[Toler back for week 5]

I have noticed this since last year but the most detrimental thing to our defense has been when we are without one of our starting corners whether it is vontae or toler...Hence why we drafted d'joun smith. I haven't seen much of him, but does he seem to be a corner that can play physical at the line of scrimmage or more of a butler type slot db? 

 

when we are without are starters we cannot play press man coverage which is when we are at our best. i'm excited to see toler return because i think our defense will now be more statically comparable to last year and maybe better given that our run defense seems improved. Our ability to get to the quarterback will improve because toler/vontae can usually take away a lot of the shorter routes that we have been giving up in the past weeks and let us blitz more. Our defense has always been able to stop in crucial times but look for our defense to be much improved in the upcoming weeks if toler can stay healthy.
