So...who are we taking in 2020???

Yeah, I was on the OJ Howard train because we were playing so many multiple TE sets to make it worth it. So it'll be interesting to see with so many good wr talent now...if we do what the Rams do and make 11 personel our base formation. If yes, we'll see how Delanie and Johnnu look this season and go from there.

Obviously if we need a new QB that will trump everything, but if not, we'll have an overly experienced Walker, Wake, Casey's getting up there, Woodyard, Jones and Conklin are on one year left as is Ryan and a few others so...if not replacing Mariota, we may need to replace some people with our 2020 draft. We have already stocked up some positions too. All things being equal, another pass rusher, TE, and OC to eventually replace Wake, Walker, and Jones.

 

Thanks! Nice breakdown!

 

Of course, but we have time to shoot the breeze...

 

Guard rather than C? Saffolds will hold down LG and they are hopong Davis will be the eventual starter at RG...but Jones only has this year left on his contract I think.

 

I haven't seen enough of Sims to think he's gonna be as good as Ryan. Plus, we play Ryan in the slot a lot and think Sims is mostly an outside guy. It would not surprise me if they think Hooker MIGHT be able to fill a nickel role in 2020...assuming he's as good as we think he is.

If the difference is $10mil/yr for Ryan or 6+mil/yr for Sims, I'll pay the extra 4mil.

But we are starting to enter the phase where we need to develop 3rd-5th round picks into cheap starters.
