NFL 2018/2019 Thread

It may have a bit to do with how effective the pickup of nate solder is. he was pretty good for the patriots. maybe he can be a stabilizing force on the line and help out eli and saquon.

I haven't really seen anything from the jets that would convince me they're going to be able to protect their qb.

Well, also, if Flowers moves to the other side, it is potentially an upgrade at both tackle positions, with Hernandez being a mauler for a first year guard. 2 big questions, well 3. If Eli can make plays still when given the opportunity, if these revamped o-line can gel into a useful unit, and if all involved parties can stay relatively healthy, this is the most stacked Offense in the NFL on paper. If curious to see if paper goes into play under the new coach. Clearly last year was a morale loss to a locker room divided.

skill positions, yes it's a potentially scary offense but ah, no what you had on the o-line was shit and you know it was shit. the coaching change is probably going to help most. different personnel...there's potential.

One thing I would bet on, is that if eli gets more time even if it's just the defense honoring the threat of saquon...he'll deliver. when it counts most. i'll forever be thankful to that man for taking down the patriots...twice. special, special dude.

I think the O-Line is potentially a lot better with the addition of Hernandez and a change at both tackles. I think letting the Niners steal Richburg was a terrible mistake, but this line has the potential to be a lot better than the last 2 years, which were straight bad. I can only hope that Barkley live sup to the hype, he certainly by all observable evidence appears to be a game changer.

I want to believe in my man, but watching him last year, the arm just was not there. Like, even medium throws that were not complicated windows were slow and wobbly. It seem like his arm strength just was not where it needs to be last year. It could have been timing, I mean, with your TOP 3 WR out hurt, one can only expect a dude to do so much and your timing and rhythm suffer, but still, I worry about 38 years old. My hope is a new coach and some strength training can get that handled. The 2011 Offense was simply a pick your poison nightmare more than any Defense could handle, I would love to see that on the field again.

For real though, LBJ as a tight end would probably have been ridiculous.
 
Career longevity...and bball has risen in prominence the last few years.

In other news...Dez wants to play for my 9ers. Would love to have him join the squad but we’re currently stacked at wideout. It would most likely be an audition year for him to ask for big bucks in 2019. I’m thinking it would still be worth it. If nothing else it’s great that players actually want to come to SF again.
 
Yeah as crazy as it sounds, I don't think Dez really has a spot.
 
Dez had a legitimate offer from the Ravens, and the dumbass turned it down because he wanted a team that would play the 'boys twice a year... and none of those teams want anything to do with him.

Totally overplayed his hand.

the 9ers WR corps is 'stacked'??

ooookay...

Stacked is far too strong of a word.

Garcon is still playing at a high level. Goodwin broke out last year when Jimmy G started slinging him the rock. Trent Taylor was pretty locked in as the shifty slot guy. They traded up to get Pettis in the 2nd round this year and he's also gonna have KR/PR duties.

So that's 4 spots already locked down for sure, plus late round guys/UDFAs etc to compete for the 5th spot, and Shanny is really high on Kendrick Bourne.

I don't see them paying a lot of money for post-injury in decline Dez Bryant.

This. He’s had his day.

Someone desperate will bring him on, but hopefully not Raiders or 9ers.

Funny how unknown receivers got good as soon as Garrapolo became QB.

Eleven wideouts+slots on the roster. Maybe not stacked in talent (still to be seen tho) but where does Dez fit in a group with that much depth? That sounds the problem. Who would he bump to get a roster spot?

I think Philly and the Skins would both like to, they just can't afford it.
