I liked your write up on JSN contract, I think it was very fair considering we could keep him another 3 years without doing a thing. My question is and you may have addressed this and I missed, what does the contract offer look like for Devon Witherspoon after the Rams cornerback signing? Thx
I bought a Big Cat jersey with the 50th anniversary and Super Bowl patches after the NFCCG. A knock off from EBay and it took until a few weeks ago to get here but I was impressed with the quality. My expectations were low but it is nicer than anything I’ve seen Fanatics put out in the last decade and close to my old Nike stitched jerseys. I realize he won’t be playing long, but I just love the guy’s game -and 99 looks good on a jersey.
Roster construction is an art...I just wish I could be an insider and know the prospects better. Would love to scout for a living. I put out three names that might be great value picks...Dani Dennis-Sutton edge, Charles Demmings CB, and Gracen Halton DT. Bonus pick...G Jalen Farmer. They all grade out well in production and athleticism.this draft kinda sucks...not a ton of guys with well rounded games, so many have some type of deficiency. Hoping coaches will be able to select players they can improve with time. This draft seems to have a lot of mud but not a lot of bricks
I decided I'm for sure trading up this year...or trading completely out of this draft entirely...I'm jk but seriously. Two first rounders for pick 12-13-14 outta do it to get Spencer Fano. Do it Johnny, do it...we won't even need a first next year of the draft is as deep as they think it will be.
WR is probably not seen as a huge need with the impending extension of JSN along with the Shaheed extension and hopes for the development of Horton. However, if a first round talent at the position (Tyson, Cooper Jr., Boston) falls to 32 and we go for it, I would be happy.
Re: Wilson, and can’t find the quote, but it did echo what you just posted SJ in that they think he has potential that others haven’t seen.
As for draft. Another player that may either be competing with a rookie, or switching roles, Mike Morris. A “big” end along with Ivey. Also telling, Sheriff still hanging out there. Like Thomas or Okada, as you said, are they looking to see the depth guys step up? Agreed that JS is looking at 2027 etc not 2028.
Side note, our AB a “performance” bonus! Drake too. Apparently I missed your prior article about bringing in former first round CB.
I own a DVD of the film, "The Mystery of Picasso," in which the great painter sits before glass panels and...paints. He has superlative line control at this stage in his career, so the first brush stroke might be a mountain, the second makes it a bird, the third a bull. And he's painting for the camera on the other side of the glass. (My wife hates this film. I've seen it three or four times.) Point being, that's what JS is doing and we have no way of knowing what the final picture will be. Sometimes Picasso simply paints over and starts again. (We've had a couple of those seasons, right?)
My sense from what's been accomplished (word chosen on purpose) in free agency is that he is now free to draft BPA. My expectation is that he will be able to move around some, to accumulate some additional picks on day three, because there are weirdly interesting players there who, at a minimum (see: the LB Gentry) could be special team demons. I'm not worried about position. I'm worried about finding (as MSDugar said today) at least one contributing starter, and one difference-maker on defense, another piece like Emmanwari, though I know he's a unicorn. I look forward to the draft and watching the master draw the next line on his canvas.
(Picasso's glass pieces were destroyed after filming.)
to Idaho Fred : "Especially with all the extra posts about the signings."
That's what it is! All of those extra individual player posts by KenJoe.
... it Does seem like more activity as it akes an effort to keep up (in a good way).

Double on ths one, Chuck. Stay Young, Big Cat.
Yes, you absolutely should get Clark a Super Bowl commemorative sweater.
I bought the Sam Darnold Middle finger t-shirt Ernest Jones IV was wearing at the parade on Etsy.

I also bought a hat, but the shirt is my favorite.
I was tempted to buy the Dark Side bobblehead set, but its $140, so a bit much for a desk decoration.

4 championship shirts to wear around Sofi, for the low Fanatics price of $7 million
Love that shirt!
I got a standard Super Bowl championship t shirt.
And yes, those faces are creepy, but I assume they will be a bobblehead version and not their actual faces!
If I could trade up for one player I'm going to try get Spencer Fano and play him at guard instead of OT. He could be a big upgrade to AB.

I don’t know if that means the glass is half empty…
