    I really thought we needed to add 1 FA, 1 early round pick from the draft and a later round pick to compete.

      I think they may have made their decision on Jeffrey. I know what all the media outlets have been reporting in regards to him being a rat but Big Balls is still denying the riff. Maybe he's willing to look the other way for this season. In my opinion, I think if Jeffrey can get healthy, he can still play at a decent level. If they're paying him anyway, why not just keep him? That being said, Howie needs to nail this draft in regards to the wide receiver position. I don't care if he needs to draft three, he needs to walk away with a starter. I know it's a tall order for Howie but he needs to find a way. Unfortunately, the free agent wide receivers dominos didn't fall the way I would have liked. I don't think the top three wideouts will be within range. I hope I'm wrong.

        Can't wait for them to miss in the guy they want in the draft, panic and draft a jagoff.

        Let's see if they are working a trade or something bc this doesn't look too good. Haven't addressed the position at all lol
        They will draft 2, keep Alshon for now and sign Antonio Brown.

          I agree with this. I still think he can contribute. The media/fan opinions don't matter. All that matters is what the locker room, particularly Wentz, thinks.

          Also, I know it's far from a certainty, but a full season of a healthy DJax helps this offense immensely. I think people are forgetting that because his last season was so forgettable. If they get the right WR in the draft, with the TE's they have, I think they'll be fine.

            They're after Yannick. They'll draft offense next month.
            Yeah I only read their true cap numbers today. I was going on their averages plus what was published about their re-signings.They just signed Nickell-Robey as well.

              The only thing stopping Jeffrey from being a contributor is his health. He would have put up decent numbers if he stayed healthy. It's not like the NFC is loaded with shutdown corners. If Jeffrey becomes a problem, hopefully, they will have his replacement sitting in the wings and they can move on. Regardless, Howie needs to draft at least two wideouts in this draft.

                Did I miss the announcement that rosters are now final? It is March - there are still trades, more WRs will hit the streets in the next 6 months, and this is supposed to be a deep WR draft.

                I think Mike Wallace is available.
                Per Howie at his press conference, they are good there so I think they will focus on the draft. Hope they go all in and move up for Lamb or Jeudy to be honest.

                Edit to add: Wallace hahaha

                    I can help Howie right off the bat. Don't draft another Pac-12 wideout again (BCJJ, Agholor, and Huff). Sorry, Laviska Shenault & Brandon Aiyuk, it's not you, it's us. They could end up good somewhere else but it's not happening here.

                      This is a good post! Agree! Fuck it mortgage the draft and go get Lamb or Jeudy.
