DRAFT

ROUND1
O'Cyrus Torrence G Florida
Mauler type of guy Solari should fall in love with. He gives you something big McGovern could never do and that's handling them power 1Ts.

ROUND2
Jonathan Mingo WR Ole Miss
Guy is a monster vs DBs. Reminds me of Deebo with a little less speed.

ROUND3
Noah Sewell LB Oregon
Freelance a little too much. More athletic than Vander but needs to learn but the instincts needs to be developed, kinda like Clark. Most likely starter in 2024

ROUND4
Eric Gray RB Oklahoma
Reminds me of alot more talented Rico Dowidle. If they can get Gray in RD4 this is a steal

Trey Dean III S Florida
Did alot of the same things the Cowboys asked Wilson to do.

Man, if we can pull that off, I would be pretty pumped.
That front four looks nice. It would be great to have a couple of monsters at DT, for once.
Unfortunately, I don't think Payne is going to happen. Likely to be Osa starting next to Hankins.

I like this....but, realistically, we all know Jerry and Stephen won't do this. But, we can dream, I suppose. :D

Gallup is going to be restructured, his contract was specifically written with that express purpose in mind for this season. I’d kick the can with bringing in Edwards (eagles) pairing him with Clark…. Let Vander Esch walk. At best your hoping for Derrick Nandi, there’s ain’t no way they’re coming close to paying what Payne is going to get… hell, they wouldn’t do it for a 3tech. Talking about it is silly and setting oneself up for disappointment!

When they originally hired Dan Quinn, they made a commitment to drafting defensive players in order to get Quinn to sign on.

They likely made another commitment to Quinn to get him to sign a new contract.
- His top request is likely a legit DT.

I am likely not releasing Lewis. He's a solid vet CB on a very friendly deal. 4M for a proven CB starter is a bargain. If he is CB4 you are in great shape and he will play lots of snaps. BUT I keep that option open in camp if he gets beat out.

I don't see Tyron coming back. He's had a long career and made a lot of money and lost his job to a kid. But perhaps he wants to hang in there one more season and chase a title.
The difference between Zeke and Tyron is Zeke plays through injury while Tyron sits. And Zeke has been surpassed by a guy that will require major salary commitment while Tyron's spot went to a rookie.
I'm keeping Zeke on a reduced salary if he agrees and letting Tyron go to claim all that cap space. If Tyron once released wants to come on an incentive laden deal I am in on that.

Of re-signs I'm in for all but Pollard and Gifford.
Gifford has zero LB utility to me and I can cover ST more cheaply.
Pollard needs to get his best NFL contract right now and I am not paying 10M to franchise him.
He was sooo good this year but I gotta let him walk and recoup an R4 for him.

Draft is a crap shoot this early but I like this one.
 
When they originally hired Dan Quinn, they made a commitment to drafting defensive players in order to get Quinn to sign on.

They likely made another commitment to Quinn to get him to sign a new contract.
- His top request is likely a legit DT.
And Quinn’s DTs functioned just fine in both Seattle and Atlanta without having to have a 90m plus contract at the 1tech position. Like I said Nandi is about the best you can hope for and even that’s a stretch!!!
 
The majority of draft analysts have Kancy in the 2nd. Some project him to the 1st round.

Lol most? You picked a si writer that nobody has heard of. The guy is barely 6ft 280 DT you really think your nobody writer is right? You said majority but I don't see no majority. Earliest I've seen him mentioned is the 3rd. If he was 3 inches taller and 15-20lbs heavier he'd be a 1st round pick
 
Man, if we can pull that off, I would be pretty pumped.
That front four looks nice. It would be great to have a couple of monsters at DT, for once.
Unfortunately, I don't think Payne is going to happen. Likely to be Osa starting next to Hankins.
I don't either, Usually I don't post a preference mock, but once or twice. Day off bored I had time.
 
Someone like the Bears are gonna offer him a big contract.
I don’t think it’ll be them but I agree that someone will.

I’m sort of hoping they can sign Pollard for like 3/25 (which is more like a 2/15 guaranteed) and use the tag on Wilson.

I’m not ready to lose him, but not sure if a long term deal is the right thing to do. The number is a little high though, but that’s the rub.
 
Gallup is going to be restructured, his contract was specifically written with that express purpose in mind for this season. I’d kick the can with bringing in Edwards (eagles) pairing him with Clark…. Let Vander Esch walk. At best your hoping for Derrick Nandi, there’s ain’t no way they’re coming close to paying what Payne is going to get… hell, they wouldn’t do it for a 3tech.

He could, but I dont think they will if they do daks and Martin's deals they can free up over 30mil with those 2
