I personally think Cooper Kupp is being disrespected here.
This guy is still a 1st, is he working downward? Sure, is he still good? Look at last year when he got healthy, pretty damn good compared to goofy divas that want 30-40m per.
He's smart AF, and actually works with the QB/OC, even between plays... maybe we should just spend $ on the really fast young dudes...that do NOT GET IT.
He's NOT going to be a 5 year Deal.

Yes. I agree. Many reasons he is a good fit.
He’s a full tilt full time guy
He is smart, which will help Mayes development
He fits well into McDs system.
He is an open quick guy that we have been lacking.

 

[Ring 6]

He'll teach Polk and Baker what it means to be a Professional.

A professional what? UPS driver?

Let's sign Kupp tomorrow and then get on with focusing on the OL.

And, yes Vrabel will pick up more players at other positions, certainly a RB or two and a safety.

Apparently, we won't sign a high-profile safety. OK, perhaps Vrabel is OK with Dugger, Peppers, Mapu and Pettus. I would think that he will add a safety or two to "replace" Hawkins.

BTW, was our ex-kicker tagged or is he a free agent.

I see a traditional FS as a obvious need, but it seems as though the Pats disagree. Pettis is not a starting caliber FS and none of the other three are built to play the position like McCourty did in his prime. Peppers is listed as the FS on most depth charts but he fits the SS profile better, the fact that he may be on thin ice due to his behavior last season.

 

[Joey007]

Get Kupp

Get one more starting caliber OL

Then I’m content with this FA for us.

 

[dliverey44]

Mapu could move from big S to fast LB in the new scheme

I been saying this for awhile, he was actually decent in coverage last year. I am glad someone else is saying it. It might be a train wreck but at 6-3 230 and fast he fits the mold.

 

[dliverey44]

Free agent guard Mekhi Becton is reportedly interested in re-signing with the #Eagles, with sources familiar with his situation indicating that he is willing to accept a discounted contract.
Becton seeks compensation consistent with his earned value, having been part of the Eagles' Super Bowl-winning team this year. #Eagles #FlyEaglesFly

I can't blame him at all, Jeff Stoutland is the best (active) OL coach in football in my opinion

 

[dliverey44]

How did you get actual footage of every morning of my life?

 

[dliverey44]

Replacing Von Miller with Joey Bosa is some funny ****

Getting rid of an old washed up player for a young washed up player. its very funny

 

[dliverey44]

Douglas Baker, Boutte, the rest can go.
I see three spots up for grabs.

It must just be me but I love the Hollins signing and think that he is going to make a significant impact. I will happily eat crow if it does not happen but dude is going to have a good year. Great year for him would be 60 catches 800 yards and 8-10 TDs

Did make All-Pro? No? He fkn sucks, we need 53 All-Pros

Not quite but Maye deserves the best.

 

[WhatJustHappened]

Not quite but Maye deserves the best.

Which is WHAT exactly?

 

[Toofy]

Sign Kupp. Draft Will Campbell and Conerly Jr by trading up with Vikings . Mid season we can trade or sign Higgins or aiyuk. Sow/ Robinson and rookies should be good on left side while onwenu and Moses man the right side.

If one of Campbell or conerly Jr pan out that's a win. If both do that's a jackpot and we can go for kill for next 3 seasons on cost controlled offense with just a wr 1 as need. If Kupp channels his inner Brady and gives us 2 additional years, we are golden.

 

[Love The Drake]

Which is WHAT exactly?

Clutch receivers who can run routes, win in one on one coverage and break a big play.

I undersold again, didn't I? I am bad at this selling thing

 

[Hyped]

We are average at RG and RT and yes Onwenu could be above average if he gets his **** together but hadn’t for 2 years.
Andrews is apparently being cut. If not he is coming off a major injury and is 34 years old. No one should call that a good situation.
Strange who I like played 2 games last year and we don’t know where he is playing.
Lowe was definitely THAT bad.

Did you not notice we had the worst OL in the NFL?
We have added an average RT.

We aren’t getting an above avg LT and you want to play guys who have done nothing but sucked in the league as the 5th.

Wouldn’t you prefer to have a good OL?
Shouldn’t we bring in starting caliber OL instead of slugs to battle it out and we get stuck with the tallest midget?

I just dint understand why you don’t want good players.

LOL, you should be a comedian…really! Dude, I want a GOOD OL just like you do…. and I think Onwenu will kick ass when he just has to play RG and nothing more.

The problem here is that our OL was like the 31-32nd best in the league last year….if we ONLY HAD AN OL RANKED IN THE TOP HALF OF THE LEAGUE WE WOULD BE SOME GOOD, IMO.

Drake can cook with an average OL, IMO.

 

[PatsFan2]

So I guess we're Tripple Dipping at Offensive Tackle in the draft. You know what they say if you throw enough **** at the wall something will stick.

 

[1960Pats]

I wish the site would ban all these asinine looping video things, whatever they are called. They are childish.

 

[1960Pats]

Then you have to take the contract which is way, way more than his market

They have cash to burn.

I thought that too, but I suppose we’ll see more modified quarters, so less of a need for a great single high safety than we think.
