Bozeman isnt really a fit for our scheme. Doesnt move well enough.

I'd rather have a good placeholder than a guy like Mustapher who fits but sucks.

 

[Aesopian]

A fucking ham sandwich can block better than Mustipher.

On a serious note, Pocic would be my choice. From Illinois, he has a nasty side to him like Jenkins.

Yeah we still dont know who will actually hit free agency

 

[Bearly]

You can’t hit the minimum spending limit just looking for deals. There will be a few big/medium signings. Even last year the plan was to start with Larry O at 3/40.

I do agree he won’t be doing the drunkin sailor thing and the draft is how he wants this built.

But the first few days of free agency will still be fun.

Poles has put himself in a position where he has to spend some money. It's comical how the staff refused to call 2022 a rebuilding year with that amount of cap cleaning.

Just about anyone is an upgrade over Mustipher. A just okay center would give a rookie time to develop but not do much to make the offense elite. If they're going to sign a meh guy they may as well hang onto Patrick.

The higher rated FA centers are getting old and will want the kind of long term deals Pace handed out that crippled the team. If they could pry someone like Kelce away with a front loaded three year deal it would be a coup and arguably worth the money.

That comes from George and not the staff. Poles said he wasn’t supposed to use that word when he was first hired.

Yup but still silly.

 

[BaBaBlacksheep]

Yup but still silly.

Oh I agree. Just saying don’t blame the staff for George being an idiot.

That is a good suggestion.

Sure but I would prefer a good player who is also a team fit.

Than you'll probably be waiting decades.

Not really.
