People will hate this but I would have rather let Milano walk and cut Addison and do this contract... I’m actually surprised I bet they could have got Yannick with Williams and Milano if they cut Addison straight out

Steal by the raiders.... wow can’t believe they got him that cheap

Wonder the price anything less than 14M was a good value in my opinion

A third for hunt sign me up

They aren’t trading him for a second...

Not to mention the giants would laugh at the offer really a second round pick is gonna net you Barkley.... lol is right

Would love to snag the unc RB with the second pick and Wyatt Davis with the first or the best DE/DT

Agreed.... he was my wish list but I can be bought with the colts DE and Dunlap

Just need a DE... Lawson probably a pipe now but maybe the guy from the colts or Dunlap

Was my question as well.... people are celebrating the Milano signing like it’s a big coup but if it cost you the chance at an elite DE or Williams then I think it was badly misplayed by beane, really bad actually

Just bring me Lawson and I’ll be happy

Yep he wants to run it back with the same squad

Dude it’s both hence two posts about it... and many more good grief

So let’s bounce Williams for one bad game when he played exceptional for the majority of the year and was pivotal to our offense and keeping Allen upright but let’s pay Milano who didn’t impact the chiefs game at all and the defense was down according to expectations for the majority of the year makes logical sense

Wow man ok let’s try again priority is to win the super bowl, To do so we need to overtake the chiefs... I thought this was a known but I’ll make sure I clearly articulate this To do this we need to keep the franchise healthy and rolling so why we wouldn’t prioritize keeping the RT who kept Allen upright seems weird to me, if his price has gone way up then okay I can be convinced we had to let him go but I don’t like the notion that we will just draft one and that it will all just be okay 2. Our defense struggled to get to the passer last year consistently, this defense got shredded in 2 of the 3 playoff games with Milano in the lineup so I’m not convinced at all resigning him for 11M properly addresses the defense and helps us achieve any of the goals I just mentioned with a down cap year IF milano’s contract prevents us from getting Williams or an elite pass rusher I think it was a bad decision is that not crystal clear

Not according to this thread... seems like I’m crazy but I’m honestly shocked some have the stance they do seems obvious to me that protecting Allen should be priority one and improving the pass rush should be number 2 but I guess some would rather gambles Allen’s health and the offense and keep Milano Love the process.... but maybe not this

I get this point

I’ve been pretty consistent priorities this off-season: protect the franchise (Williams) rush the passer (proven DE) again this isn’t hard

Great let’s release our pro bowl RT and trust a rookie there but make sure we keep Milano, he is much more valuable lol really good stuff here

Nope nobody said that simply asked if this is going to prevent Williams or a pass rusher both more informant and valuable than Milano

Guess we should have kept John brown as well then.... let me ask you this if you could have Lawson or Milano, which would you want? That’s my point, if the contract takes away our ability to keep Williams or sign one of the DE’s being talked about then which makes more sense

True, let’s see how the rest of the off-season goes hoping for Lawson and Williams somehow

who mentioned stats... I haven’t mentioned stats one time as my benchmark. I believe keeping Allen save is priority one and Williams did that so pay him I believe the next step to catch the chiefs is to put pressure on mahomes, enter the pass rusher Milano’s position is valuable but I’m not convinced you can’t find a player like him in the draft much easier than an all pro RT or proven pass rusher

Agreed... don’t get me wrong Milano is a good player and has value but in this cap year I’m doing everything I can to keep Williams (within reason) and get a proven edge rusher linebacker is a luxury not a necessity and I think can be replaced in the draft much easier than a great RT or proven pass rusher

nice man, leave out the playoff game? Come on... the entire point of this off-season is to close the gap with the chiefs you could still get one of the pass rushers but I’m sorry I don’t love the idea of starting a rookie tackle to protect our franchise... I would much rather pay Williams and a proven pass rusher and take my chances finding the next linebacker in the draft than trying to find a future RT to protect our franchise
