AuntieEm Posted October 9, 2023 Posted October 9, 2023 On 10/9/2023 at 2:33 AM, Success said: Maybe. It depends on the following: - Are Milano & Jones definitely gone for this season? If either can make it back for the playoffs, stand pat at their position. - How do the replacements do? Williams might be alright. I was excited when we signed Poona Ford. Both will be a dropoff, but in a D like this, maybe not significant enough to warrant any other moves. Expand They could be ok with a less stellar defense but only if the offense plays the keep away game by eating chunks of game clock. Then even a timely turnover by defense can make enough impact to get the bigger gap in score letting our defenders tee off or play prevent as game is progressing can adjust to what's happening. 1 Quote

His production certainly didn't warrant the money he was given. Now they have the 2 TEs they always wanted and can't scheme any plays to the TEs.

See if there is a chance for Daquan to come back later. See how Bernard and Williams play. See if Elam can get back on track. Evaluate, find the biggest weakness and if a trade is there, do it. Even for a first. Just don't do it now. Expand Wait until some other team go to them with an offer and ***** him? Quote

On 10/9/2023 at 2:39 AM, John from Riverside said: If we make a trade, I hope it’s for an offensive weapon Tired of devoting so many resources to this defense Expand Another WR would be a force multiplier beyond anything another LB, DT, or even CB could be. It would also mean another competitive AFC team did not get that guy. At some point, the mindset of balancing offense with defense has to be jettisoned. They've got some pass rush and sure there could be improvements on the back end, but finding a true complement to Diggs makes this offense a force and should be prioritized. It also means Gabe can play the WR3 role an gives Kincaid more time develop. Quote
Donuts and Doritos Posted October 9, 2023 Posted October 9, 2023 Too many injury holes to fill with trades. Need the depth to step up. Might back fill the depth. But I think the message will be there's no cavalry coming so do your part. Only possible trade might be CB depth, given the lack of faith in Elam. Quote
Success Posted October 9, 2023 Posted October 9, 2023 Beane has been pretty clear - he wants a long-term contender. We have good depth at LB and CB, and good players stepping in for the injured guys. To actually get better players in those positions would require some real capital, and compromise longer-term team building. I could see us raiding a practice squad or 2 for better depth in case some of the replacements get hurt - but that's it. 1 Quote
