In order to prevent us wasting precious years of Patrick Mahomes' career, Veach needs to work some magic this offseason. What's your advice for him? [Reply]

Have Rankin and Remmers hold this spot down until Fisher gets back.
Again. This needs to be repeating: we are not facing the Bucs pass rush every week. The closest thing is the Chargers and Melvin Ingram is probably leaving.
Some of you guys are acting like we’re playing the best pas rush in the league every week :-) [Reply]
If I'm Veach, and these guys clear medical concerns, I'd do this:
re-sign Osemele.
re-sign Remmers as super-sub.
sign Jason Peters as stop-gap/swing tackle/mentor for young'uns like Niang, a new draftee, Wanegho.
sign Justin Britt to a cheap deal.
and week one probably looks like:
Peters/early OT draftee like Eisenberg/Radunz/Little
Osemele
Britt
LDT
Niang
I would expect that Fisher returns at some point, and that Schwartz does not. [Reply]

Go look at the Eagles cap situation. They lose money cutting Kelce. And they’re already like $40 million over the projected cap. I have no clue what the fuck they’re going to do. [Reply]

Now I wouldn't pay him what the open market probably would. But I would welcome him back on the cheap.
Cheap, short-term deal is fine with me. That at least kicks the can down the road a year and you can upgrade later.
If he’s your worst offensive starter, then you’re fine. [Reply]

Our 25 year old Franchise QB has missed games and had injury concerns the last 2 years. If we have to go overboard a bit here, well, it is what it is. [Reply]
Niang is the key to how quickly and easily we can fix the OL. Having one OT and both guards at least temporarily filled makes this whole offseason much more manageable. [Reply]

He is essentially a 2021 draft pick already made. His contract even reflects it now. [Reply]
