    I truly don't understand why Larnach was tendered and then not traded. He's too slow-footed for the OF and we have other guys I'd rather have that spot like Outman and Roden.
  2. TheLeviathan
    I'll add to the contrarians: I'd like to see us take a chance on his upside. This team has a lack of athletes in the OF...if they can recapture some of what made him special it would be a useful asset to move this summer.

    Vikings weren't kidding about sitting out the first round of FA.
  4. TheLeviathan
    I don't get that move at all. I expected a 3rd for Pittman. They go a swap like we did for Ingram for him.
  5. TheLeviathan
    Feels like a sequel of last year: historic draft class at a position, need for the Vikings. So what do they do? Bring back the familiar guys, pass on the draft. We passed on Skattebo and others last year in favor of Jones and now we look like we prefer Wilson to the myriad of studs that will be there at our second pick. (Hill, Trotter, Golday, Rodriguez, etc.) I like bringing back Wilson. With Cashman's history I can get on board. Pace? Woof. Prove me wrong in the draft Vikes.

    Jeremiah falling!

    Hockenson takes a 5M cap discount and will be a FA after this year.
  8. TheLeviathan
    I nailed the Kamren Curl thing.....if you don't include the inconvenient fact that he took 3/36 to stay with the Rams.
  9. TheLeviathan
    I'm only keeping Hockenson because I think a small extension ends up saving almost as much money without as many cap ramifications. (And without adding yet another position of need for the team) But I share your concerns he might be cooked.

    Rumors are that Flores stood on the table for Allen.
  13. TheLeviathan
    I didn't use nearly the cap space I freed...projecting Redmond was really difficult. You might well be right. Hall just turned 25, it is an upside play for sure.
  14. TheLeviathan
    It just feels like more of the same purgatory we've been stuck in. Murray and Darnold aren't the same kind of "bad" before coming here. Giving up on a super young QB so we can play the NFL's shortest QB who can't throw deep and can't stay on the field feels like impatience. Worse yet...impatience that we're not getting that go-nowhere 10 wins our ownership craves so badly.

    Quick cap freeing moves: Hargrave, Jones, Allen, Kelly all cut (Allen and Harrison Smith are post June 1) O'Neill Extended 3/66 Darrisaw and JJ restructured Hockenson 2/22 Trade Greenard to Bengals for Pick 41 Resigns P Wright 2 years 6M LS Depaula 2 years 4M LB Wilson 2 years 12M Bring back Richter and Scott at ERFA tags Extend Redmond 3 years 20M Free Agents QB Murray (Min) - Yes, I hate this. It feels inevitable. Thanks Thanos. DL Logan Hall 3/27 - This guy is a force RB Travis Etienne - 3/30M - He had a much better year in pass pro, duel threat guy. Edge - Azeez Ojulari - 2 years 4M Safety - Kamren Curl - 3 years 36M Draft - (Needs going in: NT, LB, CB, OL, WR, RB) 18 traded to Philly for 23 and 98 23 - CB Avieon Terrell 41 - LB Anthony Hill Jr. 49 - DT Dontay Corleone 82 - OL Gennings Dunker 97 - S Genesis Smith 98 - CB Trayden Stukes 157 - WR Bryce Lance After that...some dudes (Nowakoski for sure) Depth Chart QB - Murray, JJ, Brosmer RB - Etienne, Mason, Scott FB - Nowakowski OL - Darrisaw, Jackson, Brandel, Fries, O'Neill with Dunker as a backup at G/T DL - Redmond, Corleone, LDR, Hall Edge - Gink, Turner, Ojulari LB - Wilson, Hill, Cashman CB - Terrell, Murphy, Rodgers, Stukes S - Curl, Metellus, Ward, Smith

    Same playcaller pretty much. Here's what I know....when Murray got benched...suddenly Wilson was hitting big plays downfield. And Jacoby did all that with Harrison largely hurt and with the team running out their 4th string running back. I'm just saying...down here....the analysts were all rejoicing that Kyler got hurt.
  17. TheLeviathan
    To be clear, I'm not listing Jacoby's stats to advocate acquiring him. I'm using them to show how a semi competent career backup outshined Kyler Murray. It isnt pro-Brisset. It's anti-Kyler.
  18. TheLeviathan
    His TDs did spike in the second half but it's not like the rest of his stats indicate there was some dramatic shift. They just punched it in more often. And again, piloting one of the most banged up teams in the NFL last year. Murray had a largely healthy roster and was decidedly "meh"...as he has been for a long time. A terrible down field thrower, prone to injury, and frustratingly limited.
  19. TheLeviathan
    That's part of my problem I guess. We're chasing KOC's job security rather than making him prove that he can deliver on the bet he had us place. I'm just all done with the 9 win purgatory.
  20. TheLeviathan
    This is our QB trauma speaking. I get where you're coming from, but this the trap we always talk ourselves into: Empty wins.
  21. TheLeviathan
    Wins and losses are not a good metric for QB judgment IMO. Yest, the Cardinals lost a lot of games but they had one of the most injury plagued rosters in all of the NFL. You can't look at these game logs and tell me it was his fault they were losing. And if McBride is your concern, he averaged 6 catches, 70 yards, and .2 TDs per game with Murray and 8 catches, 80 yards, and .8 TDs per game with Brissett. My point is not to put Jacoby on a pedestal, but to point out just how much better everything in the Cardinal offense got as soon as Murray was gone. Again, living out here and seeing a lot of their games, that wasn't by accident. He has a tendency to not use the full scope of his weapons, he can't challenge defense deep, and he run himself into stupid plays.
  22. TheLeviathan
    He's not wrong.....but there's a reason why Jacoby took over last year and the Cardinals offense suddenly started producing. Wilson, Harrison (when he was healthy), and McBride all surged in production along with the offense as soon as he was gone. I get the luster he has. I might be proven terribly wrong here.....but Murray ain't Darnold.
  23. TheLeviathan
    I much prefer that. Problem is that he wasn't dominant last year and the stats weren't great. I think those of us who watched him saw the force he still is,but I can't help feeling like this is selling low.
  24. TheLeviathan
    I was of the same thought in mine when I picked up Dowdle. Mason is a one trick pony unfortunately. I hate that we're chasing RBs in free agency after sitting there last year and taking Tai Felton when we could've had Skattebo.
  25. TheLeviathan
    Good stuff Dan! You think Allegier is the KOC style back? I like the player but when I did mine I had a hard time pegging the kind of player that I thought KOC would enjoy using. Huge fan of what you did with the linebackers. Chenal and Rodriguez are studs. The move makes sense but I hate giving up Greenard for a 2nd.
