Victory Formation

The production between a RB and a WR is rather comparable in many ways. A top WR can get you a 1,000yds, a good RB will also get you close to that.. Same goes for TDs… I would actually feel far better if we signed Cook to a 3yr $36M contract instead of Josh Palmer.. our window to win is now.

But Josh Palmer is worth $12M/year? And he’s a #3-#4 WR at best? But we can’t pay a top 10 RB the same money? Cook will likely score more TDS and produce more yards in 2025 than Palmer by miles.. Our window is now, you can’t let our most deadly weapon on offense not named Josh Allen go..

If Josh Palmer is worth $12M/year, how in the world is James Cook at least not worth that much?

Our CBs play way too far off the los. If we played press a lot more often it would stop Mahomes from getting the ball out so quickly. It would give our pass rush more time to get there too.

If our window to win is now, why not extend Cook to 2-3 year deal?

I’m still only slightly satisfied but I’d give our external FA grade a B now.

I think they should use him as a pass rushing specialist.. Put someone else in on obvious running situations, put Bosa in there when we need to get after the QB.

I understand that, but what if he goes ballistic? It’s a risk/reward type of scenario and it’s not like he’s Shawne Merriman type of washed. He’s only 29. Keep him fresh, rotate him in and out.. Could be a 10+ sack per year kind of guy.. Who cares about $12.5M? We paid Josh Palmer that..

Bosa at 80% is a 10+ sack guy per year. Hopefully we limit his snap count so he can stay healthy. If Bosa returns to form we have an elite DE to pair with Rousseau… $12.5M is small potatoes.

This my friend makes me excited. WELL DONE BEANE.

I’m sure we’ll add a few vets but I’m not sure we’ll pay anyone big money, if we do I think that it would be ill advised. If they pant to pay Benford, great, but I think we should add a Dane Jackson or Rasul Douglas type of player to compete with Kaiir Elam.

If they truly want to pay a CB big money they might as well just pay Benford and draft another.

They’ve retained some really good players (Josh, Groot, Bernard) A+++ As far as FA in general goes, I am really, really underwhelmed. C-

Beane and McD have made some great moves in the past, but sometimes I feel like your average fan could do a better job. I’m not excited by Hoecht or Palmer but I’ll have to patiently wait and see.. I will end with a gratitude statement however. Extending Josh Allen, Greg Rousseau and Terrell Bernard were excellent moves and should be regarded as such. Hopefully McD/Beane finish out strong.
