We resign the priority players like McAfee, Davis, (Brown and Bethea only if they aren't costly)

 

We sign C Alex Mack from Cleveland, DE Antonio Smith from Houston (Mack would be our starting center day 1 and Smith would be much needed pass rush help from the DL. Will share time with Redding.)

 

This would be my dream offseason.

 

With this draft and free agency we would be mostly set everywhere as long as we don't have many busts.

[Valpo2004]

I'm cooling off on Davis, I really need to see a good game from him again before I feel like handing him a big contract.

 

He's been bad since the Denver game.

But man was he a beast in that game....

Anything can happen IMO... How much did we sign Walden for?

Round 2 Pick 25 (S.F.): Allen Robinson, WR, Penn State (A)
Round 3 Pick 14 (S.F.): Shayne Skov, ILB, Stanford (A)

Round 5 Pick 24: Boseko Lokombo, OLB, Oregon (A)
Round 6 Pick 24: Bennett Jackson, CB, Notre Dame (A)
Round 7 Pick 12: Sean Parker, SS, Washington (F)

 

 

 

I am very glad to see someone noticed what kind of season Allen Robinson is having... Very glad to see him fly under the radar, but he may not make it to late second round... Colts may want to think about trading up to grab him...  He has made some "Reggie" catches this year...Thankfully this years draft class is deep in WR. 

 

Dont think Skov will make it to the 3rd either. He's a beast

I love the offseason.

Arthur Jones would be a great pickup. Have to let Redding go and pray to ... we never have to see Moala & Mathews again.

 

I`d take Davis back for Toler $$$ plus a little. He is so young but against some speedster matchups he needs some Deep S help that Bethea isn`t capable of providing.

 

We need a Quality Center period.
And we have to improve our defensive front 7.

We stink at ILB. That could be our 2nd rd pick. For me next may be a WR.

This week it feels good to look forward.

Anything can happen IMO... How much did we sign Walden for? 

 

Walden got about $3.2M in salary and a $1M signing bonus for this season, with about $4.25 guaranteed for next season.

So he will be here next season.

 IMO, he is not playing as well as, and the numbers show it too, as Hughes did last season for much less$$$. Waldenn has been making some more plays tho.

A couple of Stanford comments, if I may....

 

Yankey is being projected (for right now) anywhere from the low 1st to the middle 2nd...   of course, that could change with the combine, pro day and private work outs...   I'm just talking about right now...

 

Skov is the wild card...  yes, we'd love to have him...   I suspect his ultimately draft position will depend on the 32 team doctors.  His knee injury more than three years ago was terrible.   Took 3 different surgeries to put him back together again...    

 

I'm sure some teams will red flag him and take him off their board.    I suspect other teams will green light him and make him a 2nd or 3rd round pick....      the doctors voice will be key for Shayne...

 

Great kid.   Emotional team leader.   Teammates love him.    Plays smart, hard and hurt.   Very good against the run.  Very good blitzing....  OK against the pass.    Worth watching to find out what the doctor reports are...   that'll be the key....

The 1st time I saw Robinson play was against Ohio State and there is this great play which I saw and I wanted to watch more tape on him. and as I watched more, I thought " we need to get him before someone else does"

I like Yankey but I feel Robinson ( WR) and Skov (ILB) are bigger needs. I watched Skov vs Oregon and I was blown away, great blitzer, good against the run ( HB or QB) and he is a bit of a thumper.

I love the off-season, free agency in particular. Love looking ahead/planning for the future. O-Line is the #1 priority. I would love to see a high quality center and some decent guards brought in through FA. WR is a tricky one this year with Wayne coming back, I would like to see us go after a good one in FA or take one high in the draft.

[jameszeigler834]

Why resign Bathea if he is the 7 worst safety in pass coverage.

[Jose Carreon]

We are getting a CB with our first pick then BPA, and we sing OL and Grigson try to get McClain.
