We barely missed it with Watson - who outperformed the guy that so many want us to sign for 8-10X what Watson makes. [Reply]

sorry, dude, that's a fucking terrible idea. [Reply]
I'd just take MVS back personally. Known commodity in the organization and has been a key performer in the playoffs. Especially if he's currently sitting at the same price point as all the other jabronis. [Reply]

I think either one could be this 600-800 yard WR we're looking for - hell, Mecole has been that guy before, for us.
You could use said difference to theoretically sign a DE. [Reply]

That's his CEILING, Watson.
Mooney's been a 1000 yard receiver in Matt Nagy's offense with Turdbiskey throwing to him.
He's had some nagging injuries, and Fields is a dumpster fire that throws to his first read or runs.
If Mooney's just hobbled, fair enough, you skip it.
If it's a combination of a high school offense with a dumpster fire at QB, that's worth taking a chance.
If you're EXPECTING a 1000 yard stud in free agency, ain't happening unless it's taking a chance on a change of scenery on a guy like Mooney. [Reply]

I don't understand the notion that because the team tried some reclamation projects and they didn't work as expected that they're forbidden from trying them again. The sample size on these things is small and every reclamation project is hardly some cookie cutter thing.
Is this team never allowed to attempt to dabble in the mid tier of NFL WRs again because those are the guys that aren't oozing elite nor are they at vet minimum? Should we either just pull guys off the scrap heap - again reclamation projects - or chronically look to overpay at the top of the market?
Veach is going to evolve and be fluid in these situations. He's not going to let his experience with MVS impact what he does in this free agency period just as he won't let his pick of Skyy Moore have any impact on how he attacks the receiver position in the draft. And god damnit I think that's plenty fucking fine by me.
The chess board is complicated here. Let Veach fucking work. [Reply]
