That's not surprising. We don't even know who our quarterback is yet, so I wouldn't expect, especially offensive players, to be flocking to this team just yet.

I think he will be looking at short term contracts too . . . players like Tyron Smith fit the bill . . . we have the money, they are looking for 7 year deals as they know its not happening . . . give him a 2 year $32 million contact or something. That will give us a couple of drafts to ensure we have a replacement available.

Ertz is a solid pickup low risk..

Kam Curl in 28 career games

0 INTS
2 SACKS
1 FF

Yeah he isn't a legit FS in most defenses

Isn't Forrest the FS and Curl the SS?

Don't hate the Ertz signing at all, but he's a role player at this point in his career.

Mitch Morse, Bills centre just released. Should we be interested? I don't know much about him but he had a big contract does it follow that he is a good veteran to target?

[Chief X_Phackter]

I think we should be interested in all the free agent Centers.

No YAC ZAC. His nickname in Philly. Lol.

As a depth guy it is fine but he doesn’t block and I would think with our oline , which may be improved but will still be young, we would be looking for a TE who at least blocks. Please do not just bring in anyone Quinn or Kingsbury ever had a cup of coffee with.

We should be interested in any OL and LB free agents. Can't address every weakness in the draft, and they shouldn't pass up on a potential all pro draftee just because it's not a position of need.

I think it's smart to bring in a Vet or two who know the systems, both offense and defense.

Like MTK said, Ertz is likely just a role player at this point, but being a coach on the field is an important role. Maybe he gets significant playing time, maybe not. Either way, he's a better option than L Thomas for multiple reasons.

I like it.

I expect him as a depth role player who knows the scheme and to mentor the rookie TE we draft.

Yup, he will not be the starter

I don't understand, people want us to embrace the rebuild but wanna keep the mediocre players we have

(Curl is a solid tackler but nothing special)
