Browns- RB Saquon Barkley
Giants- QB Josh Rosen
(trade) Bills- QB Sam Darnold
Browns- QB Josh Allen
Broncos- QB Baker Mayfield
Jets- QB Lamar Jackson
Bucs- S Derwin James
Bear- G Queton Nelson
49ers- DE Bradley Chubb

Bucs ain't passing on Chubb lol. Pass rush their #1 need.

Yep, hard to them passing but their secondary is atrocious. They have Grimes and Hargreaves so they would really have to love Ward to take him there. But their safeties are terrible. Conte and Ward could be upgraded for sure! James and Fitzpatrick could come into play right there.

They have Robert Ayers, who is solid, and Noah Spense, who is a good young talent. Also they have McCoy in the middle who offers a good pass rush.

I think this is exactly the reaction Lynch and Co. are hoping for...initially.

If agents think the Niners are a blank check, theyre going to overspend. Everything theyre putting out about "prudence" screams expectation management. That doesnt mean they arent going to make moves eventually.

Sherman should have little to no impact on the Niners long term plans for the secondary. Even if he plays every game this year, they need developmental CBs in addition to Spoon.

That said, he isnt a long term contributor, so he better not be the entire plan.



How dare you talk about 49ers legend Richard Sherman like that???

Well, if the 12th Man folks are burning his jersey, hes alright in my book.

We should be linked to ARob too, if this is true.
Local Cards beat guy says that from what he's hearing, most NFL teams are in wait mode as agents are asking for the entire universe right now, teams are being patient, waiting for demands to come down.

ARob is going to make considerably more $$ than Watkins.

I think Watkins will cost a lot less than Robinson. I can see him going for a 1 year deal to get on himself.

when they say linked...do you think they mean analysts think its a good match or that they are hearing that our FO is seriously discussing it?
Man how awesome would it be if the bills trade to the top 5. So many prospects will be pushed down
I would be fine with Watkins, but prefer A Rob.
im sure we are linked to every player out there, but we arent going to "splash" in the FA anymore.

fire lynch, bring back baalke

Its the smart thing to do if the owners worked together to keep the contract prices down.
