Greenbloodblitz Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 I honestly don't know much about Kwon Alexander but I'm more than happy to bring him in. I didn't really like the idea of having undrafted strong safeties and turning them into linebackers. However I really do like Quincy Wilson and I really think he's going to show up this year. Why did we only give him a one-year deal? I find that a little bit disturbing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derp Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 3 hours ago, GreenFish said: Nice signing. Like some have said, backup OT is the last glaring need. Daryl Williams is more of a RT. So he could be Becton’s backup. And Becton can be Fant’s backup. Was going to say I saw Daryl Williams signed with the Patriots, but figured I'd double check first. Turns out OT Darryl Williams signed with the Patriots and OT Daryl Williams (as you posted) is still a free agent (and I think the best veteran tackle insurance out there). Old friend Brandon Shell is a FA too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

65 Toss Power Trap Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Not surprising signing, we all knew we needed to upgrade the LB room. What's nice is JD is making the needed moves and putting together a team that can win now. 2023 and beyond could be really good, but the team is going for solid moves now, this season.

Namath than this signing. LB, SS and swing OT are still the weaknesses of this team. Add run stopping DT, replace SS (Whitehead) with FS which should be decided internally between Pinnock, Joyner, & Davis. My money is on Pinnock. Wish list as follows 1. Swing Tackle: Reiff or Williams (Bills) 2. Backup Mike = Hightower or trade for surplus from other team 3. DT = ?

Mosley has no guaranteed money left after this year. That deal was so bad that Mosley is still the third highest paid LB in the league in his fourth season since he signed it. There’s no way he’ll be making another $17M next year, so they’ll have to do something. I’d expect JD to offer something that doesn’t look too bad but is actually a decent cut in pay. He is still an effective player, just not worth that stupid money. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slats it all depends on what they do with Fant as if what I saw somewhere is true that they are in discussion to give Fant an extension. If they sure up his situation they will be able to address both the center and linebacker position in the 2023 draft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lith Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 This makes the signing even better. I believe that is vet minimum for someone with as many years experience as Aexander has. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jet_Engine1 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 In all seriousness, the Alexander signing tells me the Sherwood and Nasirildeen era will quietly be allowed to die as they're relegated to Specials and bench depth until their unceremonious release. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they sure up his situation they will be able to address both the center and linebacker position in the 2023 draft Personally, I think it would be a mistake to extend Fant. If Becton has a bounce back year, I’d move him back to the left side and either promote Mitchell or (perhaps preferably) bring in a veteran free agent. They have Herbig working at backup center, that might be something to watch for next season, too. I don’t know how much of an effect that will have. Hard to see Douglas taking a LB in the first. His highest non-premium position picks were Hall in the second this year (with his fourth selection) and Davis in the third his first year. Otherwise it’s been all premium positions in the first two rounds: OL, WR, QB, CB, Edge. I guess they could do it if they see the guy as a playmaker, or the hole as one that needs to be filled, but it would be a shift in philosophy. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
