    Henry takes a leap hopefully not the sophomore slump. Still going to need another LB here or in the 3rd round.
    Is Myjai still with us?

    Exactly

    They aren't in bad position though.

    Bring back Rankins/Barnett, sign Henry, Al Shaair, Reader, Bring Diggs home in FA.

    Rd.1 Thomas
    Rd.2 Payton Wilson after trading up using 2-59/3-85/2025 4th.
    Rd. 2 Sweat
    Rd. 4 Wright

    I think with the existing talent this team could compete for a championship.

    There were plenty of high-profile agreements Monday, but what’s an under-the-radar move that you really like so far in free agency?

    Mike Sando: Beyond the Gus Edwards deal mentioned above, Houston adding defensive end Denico Autry reportedly for $10 million over two years caught my attention. Autry is 33 years old but remains a productive player. He ranks 15th in sacks over the past three seasons (28 1/2). By staying in the AFC South, he’ll face two of his former teams, Indianapolis and Tennessee, a total of four games per season.

    Good for you,

    I'm indifferent, because in my world of sales, 2nd place is the first place loser and losing doesn't pay the bills. But if it must be more important to you to feel better than put the best team on the field possible then I'm glad you're feeling better.

    Ownership has always been cheap. Son learned well from his father's teachings.

    And the amount is irrelevant to whether the spending is WISE.

    Are we getting a WR in free agency or the draft? Will we try for Tyler Boyd?

    I hear you. You’re not even wrong. But so far we have just gone dumpster diving and didn’t even get the 1-2 guys… (azeez signing is nice)

    But there are still some good FA's out there, Henry/Diggs/Rankins/?Barnett/Queen etc...

    Would you be upset if Rankins was brought back and Queen/Henry/Diggs were signed in FA and Sweat was picked at 1-23 and Payton Wilson was the pick at 2-59?

    Well I see Al Shaair was signed since I made this post so edit Al Shaair for Queen.

    What if we're trying to trade for Aaron Jones? Doesn't matter to GB either way... but allows Texans to rework his current deal and stops a bidding war.
    Maybe get Packers to include Bo Watson in the deal.... IJS... LOL (let a brotha dream!)

    Actually who would be competing with to sign Jones?? CIN? DEN? DAL? CAR? NE? WSH? MN? Realistically DAL & maybe WSH
