While I appreciate his well thought out analysis , he lost me with using a 3 to take Tyree Jackson. (while he may be drafted, it won't be anywhere that early,imo),

Could be a 6/7 rounder sure.


DO not see that many FA signings and some of these moves like edge and ILB not my cup of T.


Shelton while an option I like, not for that price.


If the Broncos center is healthy not a bad move, Does Denver let him go, Do they need the cap space for someone else?


Would rather trade a 5 (or maybe a 2020 4 for Houston at 15.5 than pay Fowler 14 per. Let SF sign him for 17 million and see him go back to Jags days.

Several things where I think Jake is out of line.

- Let Ndamukong Suh walk in free agency unless he brings his price down extremely low
- Let LaMarcus Joyner walk in free agency unless he also brings the price way down
- Let Rodger Saffold walk in free agency if he isn't willing to take a favorable offer
- Pay Dante Fowler $14M per year tops or move on and find your guy via free agency, in-house or the draft
- Tender Cory Littleton to a 1st-round tender and work on signing him to a long-term extension
- Pay C.J. Anderson $2.5M per year tops or move on and find your guy via free agency, in-house or the draft
- Sign Ethan Westbrooks to a deal under $2M per year if he's willing
- Sign Dominique Easley to the veteran minimum if he's willing if not, move on
- Let Matt Longacre walk in free agency unless he takes the veteran minimum
- Bring back Sam Shields if he's willing to take an identical deal as last year, hovering around $1M
- Let Sean Mannion walk and find your developmental backup behind Jared Goff in the draft
- Sign Ramik Wilson if it's for a cheaper price, let him walk for anything more than $2M per year
- Do not tender Troy Hill, consider signing him for cheaper than the original tender value
- Tender Malcolm Brown at an original-round tender or let him walk
- Sign Bryce Hager if it's for a cheaper price, let him walk for anything more than $1M per year
- Sign JoJo Natson to veteran minimum to compete for starting return man spot in camp
- Sign Dominique Hatfield for the veteran minimum to compete for a roster spot
- Sign Blake Countess for $2M per year max and nothing more[/b]
- Sign Kevin Peterson to veteran minimum to compete for a roster spot
- Do not tender Morgan Fox, consider signing him for cheaper than the original tender value
- Sign Khadarel Hodge to veteran minimum to compete for a roster spot
- Sign Garrett Sickels to veteran minimum to compete for a roster spot

I would make a strong effort to extend Saffold. I mean, a STRONG effort.

Fowler is gonna get nowhere near the $14M suggested. C’mon...

Second round tender should secure Littleton.

Easley is toast. Don’t want him at any price. Can’t stay healthy.

I’d rather have Malcolm Brown than CJ. I’m serious.

I’d hang onto Morgan Fox, somehow. He might have a future with the Rams and I wouldn’t risk losing him until we determine just how he fits.
