Probably a good thing. Probably not quick enough for this year but maybe next season. The last one at the Ralph. Maybe that’s what they are gearing up for. Go out with a bang in the old stadium. Dropping a banner in the new one on day one.

True.  But I'm thinking more in terms of just needing some new energy.  There is a hump out there that we have simply been unable to get over, regardless of seed or potential.

 

And I've been vocal that injuries definitely set us back at the end of the season.  But I love that we're going to have an infusion of youth and a bit of a makeover.

It's a brutal pruning. I can't say I think the choices are illogical but it was all of "break glass in case of emergency" options all at once.

 

And then Beane got Miller to take a pay cut, void yeared Douglas (I think)

I guess… 

 

4 out of 5 starters on the line back 

gabe Davis the only skill position starter gone 

 

tre was already replaced last year, so cb and lb staying static 

 

2 new safeties, a center and a wr2 isn’t crazy. 3 of the 4 are non premium positions 

 

figuring out the DL is the biggest piece if you assume a WR by the end of round 2 and dl wasn’t really hit today so it’s not so much a drastic makeover today as much as some long tenured names

Yeah, I don't think the team is going to look that much different.

 

There will be a bunch of new players, but the majority of our core group is still here.

I get the initial gut reaction from many but I think when you break it down- today wasn’t as noteworthy on the field as it was sentimental. The fan base is really holding onto “the guys that broke the curse” and a bunch left today. 

 

but several were already gone or holding on by a thread last year.
 

And the only one at a premium position (tre) was already replaced last year

Speaking only for myself, I’m tired of the whole regular season warrior thing. 
 

I don’t care if they go 17-0. Win the Lombardi or they’re just one of the other 31 teams who didn’t.

john has a banner in his house for 2023 afc #2 seed 

 

I think he will raise it week 1 of next season

 

Yes, to kick off the season but also it is going to hang from his ceiling fan and he’d prefer to make it through the summer first

Your definition of not being here for a day sure is strange.
