I agree with Holmes and LeBlanc as both had good preseasons and was solid in college. If I remember right Holmes led all of college football in sacks last season.

 

Younger players

James Cowser (S.Utah) DE/OLB, Raiders

Corey Lemonier (Auburn) OLB, 49ers

Pierre Desir (Lindenwood) CB, Browns

Jeremiah Poutasi (Utah) G/T, Titans

Jamil Douglas (ASU) G, Dolphins

 

Veterans

1. Josh Sitton, G, Packers

2. Geoff Schwartz, G, Lions

 

Sitton I believe should be signed as soon as possible IMO. The others should be worked out and considered for possible depth positions either now or at a later date.

 

By far the best addition to the team would be Sitton, but Schwartz would be a great fall back plan. Poutasi and Douglas are both 4th round picks in 2015 that had solid potential coming out of college. I believe they could still be developed into solid contributors and depth. Desir is a tall lengthy corner built for a press man scheme which might need a change of scenery. James Cowser was an animal this preseason for the Raiders. He absolutely lit it up against the Seahawks this preseason. Lemonier showed a lot of flashes for the 49ers, but never got much of an opportunity after Aaron Lynch was drafted.

You pretty much nailed my list exactly, though I would also include Marcus burley. :)

I've got my eyes on two guys I was high on in the this year's draft:

1) Tyrone Holmes (Montana), OLB, Jaguars.

2) Cre'Von LeBlanc (S. Florida), CB, Patriots - D'Joun's opposite side in college.

 

 

Holmes looked pretty fast during the preseason. Not sure hes an OLB in a 3-4 though. Who knows?

I still see his name listed on the website. Haven't seen any mention of him being injured. I'll take this but still not 100 percent certain.

Looks like the Hawks haven't sent anything official yet so all I am going by is the guys that cover the team.

I can't find anything that says he's injured. Raiders cut Neiko Thorpe I would gladly take Thorpe and Burley.

Sorry for being unejumacated, but why is Sitton unrealistic?

 

Its not unrealistic, he's just going to be expensive.  So what?  He has a three or four more years left and would solidify the interior line once Mewhort is back.

Grigson is sort of at a crossroads.  He (actually, Jim) just made Luck the highest paid QB in the land so he  sort of has to push the envelope and win somewhat soon.  Injuries are gonna' happen, and if you have a chance to put your team in a better position by getting a quality player without losing a draft choice...

It's only money....heh, heh.

How's our cap??

I liked Douglas coming out of collage, how has he been in the NFL ???

Horrible 33.7 overall blocking grade last year. Lacks ability to convert his weight room strength to on the field so he would be a back up but I like him because of his athleticism and potential. However he has not been even decent since being drafted

      Basically, every team has played right at 50 games, if not 50 - pretty good sample size. My assessment of each team in the NL Central:   It is strange at how bad the Reds are playing because after last season I seen a team on the rise. Cubs are pretty much where I thought they would be, in control of a Wild Card spot early and close to being in 1st place. Cards have struggled more than I thought they would, but they are playing better now - as expected after 40 games or so goes by. I expected the Pirates in the Cellar, at 23-27 they are still a below average team by my eye test. Brewers being in 1st doesn't surprise me but having said that I still think the Cubs will end up winning the division. Cubs are only 1.5 games out of 1st place.

      Harrison Butker's shocking speech, Chiefs probably not going to 3 peat

      By VikingsFanInChennai · Posted

      Yeah, that's a stupid question... Whatever Butker said stays with him. Andy Reid or Chiefs won't have to answer about any of that, just move on to football...

      Brewers 28-21 Cubs 27-23 Cardinals 23-26 Pirates 23-27 Reds 20-29   The Reds have only been rebuilding since 1996... And here I am with my ungrateful self for wanting more from the team...   The Cincinnati Reds... have the longest playoff win (12 years) and advancement drought in ALL major sports... going on 3 decades... THIRTY YEARS... since they last advanced and won a playoff series.    Who cursed this team and what do I have to do to unbreak it?!?!?!

      Andy Reid was asked what does he say if women in the building come to him with players speaking ill of women in general: “Yeah that hasn’t happened I don’t think he (Butker) was speaking ill to women. He has his opinions and we respect that. I let you guys (Reporters) in this room and you have a lot of opinions I don’t like.”   Funny.  And a great way to dismiss what really amounts to a whole lot of sound and fury signifying nothing. (Thanks, Mister Shakespeare, for the reference.)

      Jets Primetime 2024 Schedule

      By indyagent17 · Posted

      The preseason is hilarious. We start crowning winners before the first game is played. Let’s talk about the Jets in late October and see how this worked out. I like Aaron as a person but he is not young and coming off a major injury.
