We don't get much talk of Z.Allen on here but i'm here for it. Don't know anything about K.Elliss
From what I have read, Arizona isn’t expected to let DE Allen hit the open market?

So rank which of these RT's you'd want first to last.
K.McGary
M.McGlinchey
J.Taylor
Taylor
McGary
McGlinchey

I almost don't care about Taylor's run blocking. Adding an elite pass blocker helps this team more than a bad run blocker hurts, and maybe a heavy outside zone scheme utilizes his athleticism better than whatever the Jags have had with a different OC every year of his career. Taylor's also the youngest of the 3.

so 6 times I've counted six different journalists since Monday having us picking around 10, one when as low as 11. Not one of them provided any insight on what the Bears will receive in return. I suspect that would be via multiple trade downs to get to 10 or 11, Instead of just trading straight down to 10 via one trade down.

Gonna drop my sleeper RT here.

Trey Pipkins III. (Chargers)

Wouldn’t cost a fortune and if a better option comes along in the draft he goes to swing.
At the end of the day I just like Mike McGlinchey. He make some great plays, he makes some not great plays. I have been watching him for years because the Niners are a good team and play in primetime a lot. He has been part of this NFL miracle offense that is successful despite trotting out total zeroes at quarterback.

I think people have seen him through his ups and downs because he plays for such a team that is on television all the time. He's not a bonafide star, but none of these guys in free agency are. He'll make the Bears a better team, I'm sure of it.

This is a good call. Obviously, not a Commanders fan, but they've dropped the ball on QB. They had all this defensive talent. Got a decent OL and now WRs. I think they really missed by not doing the same trade the Bears did for Fields (I believe they had the 19th or 21st pick, granted the move was made with the Giants, but besides the point). Then they go and spend money and picks on Wentz?

If I was a Commanders fan, I'd be livid if they aren't talking to the Ravens and the Bears (for #1).
I agree. For a long time they were my dark horse to go for the #1 pick. But I have felt that is less likely lately. But now with Lamar as a possibility? Yes, they should be in on that.

Daniel Jones played just well enough to make the Giants uncomfortable tagging him and now will make them uncomfortable for 4 years. That is a LOT of money for a guy who is pretty average.

Talk about hustling backwards. The Giants declined his 5th year team option and instead sign him to a more expensive, four year contract after the season. Crazy but great for DJ. What an awesome story from walk-on to 1st round draft pick to now $160 million man.

Great for Jones. Timing wise, I think he gets lucky that the Giants also wanted/needed to tag Barkley. Otherwise, I wonder if they would have just tagged Jones and have him show he can do it 2 years in a row.

You know, that Daniel Jones deal is just crazy enough to work. The guaranteed figure is high, but not completely insane. I think ideally it'd be a little closer to Geno Smith's forty million guaranteed than Russell Wilson's hundred and sixty million guaranteed, but Jones is still in his twenties and has been improving.

I don't know what else you do in that situation but bring him back. Its a huge stack, but he could feasibly play well enough to make it a bargain. Like I said, just crazy enough to work out.

Seems like he's on the Cousins track to financial security.
