I think it’s hard to grade guys like Allen, Payne, and even Sweat when the defense is so poorly coached.

Secondly, the team has done a terrible job managing and picking up FA. That’s all in Bruce Allen! His grubby little prints are all over the bad FA decisions he’s made over the last decade. We’ve consistently picked FA who can’t stay healthy. Out of our top 8 FA, only two finished the season. The rest were hurt from the get-go or we got minimum production.

The easy answer is to get ruthless and trade or cut almost all the FA. Of all the FA besides Collins, they should all be dumped. We can get a second rounder for Trent and maybe a fourth for Kerrigan.

It’s time to rebuild. That’s what will be enticing to a new HC. Dumping all the FA will open up $80-90 mill in cap money.
Kyle Smith should be making the FA decisions, not Bruce Allen.

With Kyle Smith’s past two drafts, he’s done very well. We’ve got plenty of rookies from the 2018/9 draft and even UDFA who are playing well above their draft position. This team is young and hungry. With good coaching it can do far better than we are now.

Finally the new HC has a great choice - take Chase Young -BPA in the draft, or trade down from #2 for a king’s ransom in draft picks. Either choice is a winner.

A ton of cap money; Chase Young or a trade down for a boat load of draft picks; Kyle Smith is a very good judge of draft talent; and a lot of young players who are doing well even with poor coaching. All this is a diamond in the rough for a good HC - as long as Bruce is gone.
