Posted January 20Jan 20 Good afternoon all. Hope everyone had a great holiday season. Wish all a safe and happy 2026.Here’s my take on 2026Not sure on OC. Originally wanted the Balt guy, but he went with HC. Will let the interviews play out. Certainly, he was part of the offensive issues, but OL health played a huge part in it. Dickerson and Jurgens were less than 100% all year, and lost Lane for half the year. Got to get them back to healthy, first.Multi year resigning—-Phillips(4 yrs), Goedert(2), Mann(2), Blankenship(2)Priority 1 yr resigning—-Toth, CoveyDepth 1yr resigning—-GransonRestructure—MC2. Will save us 6.8 mil. Way too expensive for backup nickelResign after draft, if needed—Fred Johnson, EppsPlayers I want to keep, but can’t afford—DeanI do not plan to draft an OT, unless he will start at RG, then move out in 2028. Lane will play thru 2027. We should draft RT in rd1 2027 to sit and learn from Lane for 1 year. Plus, we drafted 2 guys last year. I expect one of them makes big improvement to be swing tackle in 2026. If not, bring Fred backNo money for big FA pickups. Only bring in low cost vets to competeNeeds—-OG, TE, WR, DE, CBx2, safety depthDraftRd1. Been going back and forth here. Really like Ioane for RG. But week 18 showed our cb room is bad—really bad. CB1 and 3 are all pro. MC2 is ok as CB6. Ringo is ST ace, but poor at CB. He is CB5. We need CB2 and 4. So pick is Brandon Cisse CB South CarolinaIf Cisse is gone, then Ioane is pick. If both gone, move back 3-4 spots and take Immanuel PregnonRd2. Elijah Sarratt WR Indiana. Perfect wr3 in our offense. Replaces Dotson. BTW— AJ not going anywhere.Rd3. Chase Bisontis OG Texas AM. Hopefully beats out Steen at RG. Worst case is swing guardRd3 Anthony Lucas Edge/DL 5 USC. A bigger run defending DE. Becomes our DE4Rd4. Joe Royer. TE Cinncinatti. Becomes our TE2Rd4. Tacario Davis. CB Washington. Tall cb, who become CB4Rd5. Louis Moore Safety Indiana. Becomes our Safety 3/4Rd5. Jaishawn Barham ILB Michigan. Depth lb and ST guy.I am sure things will change depending on FA, but for now….All the best, guys.🦅🦅🦅

Cut him and save $9M21 hours ago, Eaglerick55 said:I do not plan to draft an OT, unless he will start at RG,Agree completely - good call. Also remember that the consensus was Cameron Williams would have been a 1st round pick this year but came out a year early. Could be a hidden gem Howie genius move. 21 hours ago, Eaglerick55 said:No money for big FA pickups. Only bring in low cost vets to competeYou hit the bal on the nose again. I love the draft through the first 4th round pick. A QB (we need 2) and S would be the other 4 and a 5. I'll read up on Moore but would look closely at Taafe and Huskey.Good read - thanks
