    Offseason Discussion

    Need the following positions  in a big way:

    1. QB

    2. RB

    3. DL

    4. EDGE

    5. KICKER

    6. WR. etc....

     

    I would move kicker up to 2 or 3. We can't be wasting free points on XP or FG kicks.

    Luckily, kickers are always drafted in the late rounds, or are made UFA, so getting even a decent one shouldn't be too hard.

    Or package up a decent deal to move down and get one.

    So let's say there are roughly four tiers of QBs in the NFL:

    Elite- Rodgers, Wilson, Mahomes, etc

    Good- Cousins, Stafford, Brady (at this point in his career), etc

    Mediocre- JB, Cam Newton, Andy Dalton, etc

    Bad- Jameis Winston, Trubisky, Flacco, etc

     

    Now, regardless of where you think those guys actually fit, if we were to trade draft capital from only this year and snag a QB that could end up at least in the good tier, I would consider that completely worth it. I haven't watched the QBs in college too much this year, but from what I've seen only Burrow is elite, but there are a lot of good options. I would trade our second round picks if we could snag one of them, and then we could have JB and Hoyer tutor them their first year. Plus, they would have a great OL, a good RB room, and at least one elite WR and an excellent TE (assuming we resign either Doyel or Ebron) as well as a stout D. If we could achieve this in the draft, we could absolutely be competing for the AFCS with the cows next year.

    Idk man, these last few weeks have really made me doubt Justin Herbert and Eason, but Fromm has looked legit. Hell, he's essentially what people wanted JB to be, an above average game manager. He could likely be had with a 2nd rounder too, and he's NFL ready. 

     

    Best case scenario would be Tua falling to us. 

    Well out of the teams below us, Burrow is going to the Bengals, the Dolphins will take a QB, Redskins will probably take Chase Young, Jets don’t need a QB, Browns don’t need a QB, Tampa might want a QB, AZ doesn’t want one, Lions don’t want one, Bears need one, Giants probably won’t take one, Broncos will want one, Jags probably won’t want one.

    That makes it 12 teams that will likely end up below us, and out of those twelve I’d say Bengals, Dolphins, Broncos, and Bears all need/want a QB, with the Giants, Tampa, and Jags maybe considering it. If we really want a shot at Herbert, Fromm, or Tua, we need to lose out imo

    The QB can suck as well as the team. Doesn't have to be one or the other. 

    There a decent amount of QBs in the league who would’ve steamrolled the thumbtacks with our D, our OL, and Doyle. JB is not one of them

    I said our Line was great and Jack was our best player today. Besides that nobody is close to a #1 that we had out there.

    Agreed. If Ballard doesn’t resign Doyle I will be very sad.

    Most QB's are with the offense we have, besides our O.Line we rolled out an average/probably below average team at best at every position. Jack Doyle was our best player for peet sakes lmao . Nobody on our offense today would be a #1 on any team = WR's, TE's, RB's. How people can't see that is amazing. Lets just say JB sucks, that is the ticket. 

    I disagree, Doyle would be a number one and four out of our five OL would be. Outside of that yes, you’re right

    Edit: Sorry about the OL part, only read the bolded lol

    I wouldn't say kicker is priority #1 for the offseason.  We do need to find a replacement for Vinny, but adding pieces to the defense and finding a QB for the future is more important.

    Yeah I could see that. The only plus side about kicker being a big need is that kickers aren’t drafted until the later rounds, if at all.

    I can see why it may have been locked. It gives opportunity for those to comment about today's performances rather than off season discussion. I unlocked for you now though.

    Thank you, I appreciate it. I was specifically trying to avoid today.

    On the bright side we get to watch tampa bay kill us next week,  nobody on this team can cover mike Evan or chris godwin, plus thier defense is great against the run and pass d getting better.

    Take out “we” and replace it with “I”, I’ve got better things to do on a Sunday than watch JB stare down the field lol

    that order sounds about right. Some coaching staff changes might need to happen such as ST coach and strength and conditioning.

    Yeah I agree with the coaching changes. Strength and conditioning too, we always have so many injuries every year it’s crazy.

    At this point I say throw in CK, at worst we lose out and have a good shot at a real QB, at best we win the rest of our games and maybe make the playoffs. Or is it the other way around...?

    Fine, if you want to lock my thread have it your way.

     

    This isn’t a game day thread, so I’d appreciate it if it wasn’t locked.

    Regardless of whatever, I thought we could start discussing the offseason a little early. The way I see it, we need (in order of need)

    -Kicker

    -QB

    -WR(s)

    -DB(s)

    -Another pass rusher

     

    All in all, we have some holes to fill, but we’re still in better shape than after the 2016 season.

    Thoughts?
