Remember when everyone blasted Houston for trading up to get Anderson? I'm sure all of those folks have forgotten they did so this morning.Will Anderson Jr, 2023 AP Defensive Rookie of the Year!

Final logs I’ll throw on this fire - Stefanski also had that incredible defensive performance all year, including the DPOY. The 4 QBs narrative makes it sound like all were performing like late season Flacco as the reason.All good candidates. I see the argument for Stefanski with all the QBs he had to use. At least DeMeco beat Stefanski in the playoffs.Absolutely robbed. We all know who won that award. It’s ok, the future is very bright and he’ll remind the league again next year.Demeco was robbed. Stefanski won coach of the year.
To me the most surprising thing is that it truly appears that the McNairs and Caserio were pushing for CJ, Ryans was pushing for Anderson. They made the call to get both to appease both sides and…surprisingly…both sides were right.Remember when everyone blasted Houston for trading up to get Anderson?

No ****? A good friend of mine went to Michigan Tech. He's a legend in his profession (geotechnical engineering). I think he may be a bit older than you are, so I doubt you were there at the same time. His name's Jeff Goodwin.Holy crap, just found out Bobby Slowik went to the same college I did. Which isn't unusual for you people who went to big schools, but for us Michigan Tech grads that isn't nearly as common.

Yep and that first found pick we gave up in 2024 was expected to be a Top 5 type pick. Instead it's 27
I was on the record as wanting Young instead of Stroud or to take Anderson if Young went #1 so questioned if the trade was worth it to get both. I am more than happy to eat some humble pie! I still have a lot of concerns with some of Caserio's moves especially in regards to squandered cap space, but I can't argue with the results this year. They've got some of the biggest problems solved in coach, QB, DE, LT, CB1, WR, and they are trying to address the offensive line problems, they've got some pieces on defense, and I liked a lot of the waiver moves and trades they made. The kinds of moves that i think make a lot of sense and low cost to take a chance on cast-offs that may rebound from other teams.Remember when everyone blasted Houston for trading up to get Anderson?

I was definitely critical of the trade at the time, if not rabidly so. It was the combination of expecting that pick to be in the top few picks, plus it didn't seem like Anderson was regarded as the kind of pass rusher that seemed it would justify it. So felt like just to meet what they gave up he'd have to hit his ceiling.
Well, while the sack total wasn't there, the pass rush overall was. With only Micah Parsons and Garrett having better pass rush win rates. Plus he was a top run stopper among edge players. So they definitely made a better call than I would have. Very refreshing saying that about a Texans front office.
I'd like to get Chris Jones off the Chiefs and add him to our DL. Way better chance these next few years against Mahomes without Jones making so many big plays for their defense. Add him to Anderson. Don't know how the money works or what that does for Greenard, but we have to get better on both lines.
Salary cap increased $30 million. More than expected. Not a good year to have 30 free agents you need to re-sign or replace.
3 years $25.5 million, NFL Network reported.Cashman also to the Vikings.
We're losing everyone today. Casserio needs to sharpen his FA chops. It always seems like we're getting the leftovers.

I'd have liked to re-sign Greenard and then get one high end free agent. But beyond that, the leftovers tend to be the better values.
If they can get free agents from the later waves like they did last year, I'll definitely take that. They had a lot of people outplay their contracts.
Definitely seem to be playing the comp pick game. I don’t hate it but they are going to have to hit again on some reclamation projects and bargain FA’s. There are still some big names out there at Safety and LB’er though I believe.
Is Derrick Henry a possibility at a bargain rate now?

I was literally just reading up on the compensatory pick formula before making a comment about we might end up with some extra picks with the potential FA losses.
I think Henry is a possibility. I'm not sure if we'll get him at a bargain rate as I'll be surprised if there isn't interest in him. I'm honestly a little leery of him, I think he's going to keep dropping off. But I'd take him for a year, maybe two.
Heh, yeah I saw that one awhile ago but didn't think enough of it to mention it earlier.Also signed CB Lonnie Johnson, another bargain depth signing.
Edit: Darnit Greg!
