  1. Tyree Wilson has the opportunity to have a Travon Walker-esque climb through the process. I wouldn't be surprised to see him overtake one of the two unanimous top defenders right now... He doesn't have the production of Anderson or the flash of Carter, but (like Walker) his athleticism and analytics are off the charts. Of the three names you mentioned, they could cut R.Okwara and Harris on June 1st and it wouldn't surprise me at all... That would be $17MM in combined freed cap space ($11MM in Okwara and $6MM in Harris). I would actually be more surprised if they didn't cut R.Okwara. I think Paschal is a little more versatile than you give him credit for. He could put on a little weight and slide to 3-tech in just one offseason. All three of Hutch, Paschal, and Wilson (or Anderson, or Murphy) could definitely both be on the field at the same time, with Paschal on the inside of either edge. Wilson (and Murphy) are more of a hand-in-the-dirt style of physical edge than Hutch (or Anderson), but it doesn't exclude them from lining up next to Paschal.
  2. We need at least six more ex-players on this coaching staff for it to be successful. Reading around, it's unclear if Tanner Engstrand is getting a promotion or getting the boot.
  3. The more I digest last night’s Eagles-49ers game, the more I want this Lions team to be all-in this offseason. I’m not advocating for mortgaging the future by any means and “selling the farm”, but I don’t think there is a need for patience or development of a rebuilding plan anymore. Go sign some free agents, draft some instant play-makers and make a run. The NFC on the whole is simply beatable. Don’t wait for the Cowboys, Giants, Vikings, Panthers, or Seahawks to claim that spot as the NFC power alongside the Eagles and Niners (who are both themselves beatable). The NFC is up for grabs, go friggin take it.
  4. I’ll still say it. Burrow > Mahomes
  5. That was probably the real Super Bowl.
  6. Penalty will win the game for the Chiefs.
  7. When he was fresh onto the color commentary scene, he knew something. The game has moved beyond his generation, but it’s like he hasn’t realized it.
  8. I heard a rumor that the State fans are actually who bought MTS and turned it into a gambling site.
  9. I think they may get their asses turned inside out by the Bengals or Chiefs. Any given Sunday and all that, but the best of the AFC seems a step-and-a-half above the best of the NFC.
  10. The NFC is trash. You can see it here. I'm not saying it'll happen, but it's not crazy.
  11. Eagles are getting as easy a cake walk to the Super Bowl as I can remember seeing.
  12. Another questionable roughing the kicker call. Sure looked like he got blocked into the kicker by the lineman.
  13. I don't think Purdy can throw it beyond the LOS. CMC wildcat is worth a shot at this point.
  14. He had his arm hit as he threw. Didn't look like much, but he was seen telling Shanahan that he couldn't go, and the broadcast reported later that there was nerve damage. He should be okay, but doesn't have feeling in his hand, which obviously makes it hard to grip and throw the ball.
  15. I think he can also manage the offense and hang onto the ball better than Josh Johnson.
  16. Johnson out with a possible head injury. Purdy is in again, but might have emergency QB Christian McCaffery now.
  17. Was that Hutch in a Super Bowl halftime promo?
  18. The Niners with a capable QB may have won this, and the Super Bowl. Josh Johnson probably shouldn’t have a job next season.
  19. Would help if he could snap the ball within 40 seconds.
  20. Crazy quarter. FOX camera crew seems to be failing spectacularly so far, not that it's easy to anticipate a ball hitting a wire.
  21. 49ers onto their 4th string QB Josh Johnson as Purdy gets knocked out with a wrist injury.
  22. Mike Shanahan cost his team 7 points by not challenging a dropped catch.
  23. Neither of them benefits if a team wants him but doesn't want to meet the asking price. They're better off accepting a 2nd Round pick for him than saying no and making him collect his massive paycheck on Fox. The length of time that is passing without new coaches being hired (sans Reich in Carolina) probably says a lot. I would expect DeMeco Ryans, Jonathan Gannon, and Shane Steichen to all be getting second interviews at some point and at least 2/3 to get a job. If any of these teams were going for broke for Payton, the deal would have been done by now.
