    And we all know how much Watson loves to get off.

    All of their contracts expire when WAJ and CJ are due.

    Biggest questions I see would be Christian Harris. Shouldnt be a big deal because of his injury history.

    Thankfully, Lassiter and Bullock are rookies.

    I'm thinking Tunsil might be the odd man out

    And I would be perfectly fine with that IF we get a stud in the draft who can be on a rookie contract while the big DAWGS get there $$$$$, I love his pass rush skills, but he is no DAWG and as sure as hell not a Captain

    They can find a way.

    Gotta probably move on from Hunter/Tunsil after the 2025 season.

    Letting go of Tunsil will help with this. It's why I hope they draft a LT high and put him at LG to let him get his feet wet. Also putting Fisher in at RT and letting Howard walk will also help.

    One of the best corners in football

    It's ended up being a great pick. Sauce is extremely overrated. I did think he was going to be elite coming out. Stingley had better ball skills and it shows.

    As long as he is healthy, and he has this year, Sting is the better pick by far.

    Obviously that wasn’t the case the last two years.

    I'm not masochistic enough to do it myself, but I do remember the post-draft, post-1st-season posts around here, and they would sure be fun to re-read.

    In summation: 33 games (+2 playoffs) of Stingley is better than 45 games of Sauce

    It's always been about health with Stingley. Talent was evident from the start.

    He's been great the last 2 seasons on the field, elite. I hope they can lock him up for a few more years, would hate to see him play great elsewhere.
