Justafan Posted January 25, 2022 Report Share Posted January 25, 2022 (edited) They would have to feel REALLY good about Radunz to cut Lewan and risk the LT spot being another hole that can't be filled.

You can say the exact same thing about cutting Jenkins and relying on Farley to start. In fact, that might carry even more risk. Justafan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you miss on getting rid of Lewan who could screw the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think about a CB group of Fulton and not much else except some scrubs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely - better to give players up a year to early, then a year to late. Recouping that 2nd round pick would be huge and this is a great draft to need an OT. rns90, and Homelander87 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTiger3733 Posted January 25, 2022 Report Share Posted January 25, 2022 (edited) The best cap related move would be to let Landry walk and draft an Edge in Rd 1. We'd save $15m and get a 3rd round comp pick. Any other draft move is $5-$10m more expensive. Alternative RD1 draft options: 1) Cut Saffold and draft LG instead of signing one in FA: saves $8m 2) Draft TE1 instead of signing one: saves ~$6m 3) Draft WR3 instead of signing one: saves $8m 4) Draft CB to replace Jenkins instead of signing one: saves ~$8m 5) Draft C instead of re-signing Ben Jones: saves ~$4m 6) Draft LT1 and cut Lewan: saves $10m Not saying that's the right call or not. Those are just the facts. We could plug a lot of holes with the cap savings from Landry. Edited January 25, 2022 by BTiger3733 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nash Posted January 25, 2022 Report Share Posted January 25, 2022 How did Quessenberry do in pass blocking at the RT spot and if we change offense back to a Shannahan /Mcvay system will he fit at RT or left guard, his prior spot?.. I'm getting the feeling Jones will be signed on a 2 year deal. Saffold is done..Trade Lewan for a 3rd and a young player Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Radunz eventually pans out, I'll rescind my ban. Until then, he'll just have to understand and abide. AussieTitanFan08 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
