  1. Taylor doesn't seem to be rated very highly by the draft industrial complex. He doesn't get drafted in most 7 round mocks I've seen and is ranked in the 300s overall. He had high volume stats with good efficiency in college due to Iowa's terrible offense. But draft analysts aren't wowed by him.
  2. I think we signed OBJ on the Thursday of week 1. It was something like 4 days into the negotiating period.
  3. They said they want to re-sign Wilson after the season. Obviously, that assume he plays well and Fields doesn't beat him out.
  4. Yeah, Caleb Williams is getting labeled as a "generational" talent because he's considered better than the draft prospects of 2021-2023 (except maybe for Lawrence). But his college career at USC doesn't really match Daniels at LSU or Fields coming out of OSU. He certainly didn't reach the heights of Burrow at LSU. So I guess a generation these days is 3 or 4 years.
  5. I hope we sign Tart but pass on Becton. We could use a vet CB and a vet IOL for backup duty.
  6. Becton was called for 18 penalties last year, 2nd most of any tackle. He allowed 12 sacks, tied for the most of any tackle.
  7. Watters had 1850 yrds from scrimmage at age 31. Allen made the pro bowl at 33.
  8. Several teams with cap space and a receiver need are kicking themselves for not giving up a 4th for Keenan Allen. That might create some willingness for a team like the Patriots or Panthers or maybe even still the Titans to offer a high second round pick for Tee.
  9. Ricky Watters and Marcus Allen were also good players late in their careers.
  10. I think PM is trolling us with the Dillard love. If Jeff Stoutland couldn't make anything of him, why would we think Frank Pollack could? Dillard was terrible last year and Titans are doing the right thing by cutting their losses. I was a bit annoyed when they signed him so quick last year instead of us being able to trade Jonah to them for a 3rd or Derrick Henry (who they reportedly were asking a 3rd for). I'd guess we aren't offering Tart or Becton as much as they hoped to get so they are waiting for a better offer to arrive from some other team. If that doesn't happen, they become Bengals. Sort of like the Warren Sapp visit but Tart and Becton are willing to sign the deal if it's the best they can get.
  11. Let's see if Hill remains at safety. They typically carry 4 safeties and 6 CBs. At the moment it looks like the depth chart is FS1 Geno Stone FS2 Dax Hill SS1 Vonn Bell SS2 Jordan Battle SS3 Tycen Anderson Maybe Battle gets more starts and snaps than Bell. That would be ok. If Anderson can't stay healthy, he would be out. But he has good wheels and could back up at free safety if Hill moves to CB.
  12. It's easy enough to circumvent anyway. If Watson is "guaranteed" a salary of 46 mil for 2026, then it could be phrased as the team exercising an option on the first day of that league year to keep him at a salary of 46 mil. If they decline the option, they owe him a 46 mil buyout. So either way he gets the money but until the contingency actually arises on the first day of the league year, they haven't made a decision and therefore don't need to fund anything in advance.
  13. Moss is lower mileage with many fewer career carries than Mixon.
