Who cares about hang time if it only goes 30 yards downfield. He was one of the most underrated poor performs of the year, and mostly in the big moments in the playoffs. I can't believe the team isn't addressing this. He was very disappointing a lot of the time.

With the team not getting a look at Julian Hill all year, I wonder if that leads to an extension for Hunter Henry sooner rather than later.

If he's kicking it from his 49 yard line, going 30 yards down field is a good thing. No. Baringer wasn't "very disappointing a lot of the time". You're another one who alwaysw reacts emotionally and can't be bothered to look at things like field position and who is being kicked to. Maybe learn the game instead of reacting emotionally and showing everyone just how clueless you are.

Baringer had ONE bad punt. Ever other one was done well. Including 2 in which his coach TOLD HIM to kick it OOB. Don't like it? OH WELL.

Henry isn't getting an extension unless he put up a 1000 yard season and snags 10 TDs.

More about having known commodities in place going into 2027. Dependent on if he’s willing to take a relatively team friendly deal. It would also let them push some cap hit dollars into the future if desired.

In case people don't remember regarding Gabe Jacas absence, Tre'veon Henderson was also slow to report last year.

First round picks contracts are guaranteed, so the money is already banked. Guaranteed money for second round picks keeps extending deeper into the round, so it sets up for second rounders to have more contentious contract negotiations. If the second round guy drafted in front of you is fully guaranteed, then why shouldn't I be.

He'll be there eventually.

Here's the problem, in a nutshell:

51. Jake Golday: 4/$9.6M, $8.39M guaranteed, $3.44M signing bonus

52: Brandon Cisse: 4/$9.36M, first 3 years and part of 4th guaranteed, $3.31 signing bonus

53. CJ Allen: 4/$9.14M, $7.64M guaranteed, $3.1M signing bonus

54. Eli Stowers: 4/$8.89M, $7.93M guaranteed, $2.93M signing bonus

55 Gabe Jacas: Unsigned

56. Nate Boerkircher: 4/$8.54M, $3.82M guaranteed, $2.67M signing bonus

57. Logan Jones: Unsigned

58. Emmanuel McNeil-Warren: 4/$8.35M, $6.52M guaranteed, $2.53M signing bonus

59. Marlin Klein: 4/$8.18M, fully guaranteed, $2.41M signing bonus

60. Anthony Hill: 4/$8.11M, $6.12M guaranteed, $2.34M signing bonus

The big problem is #56 Nate Boerkircher signed for less than 50% of his contract guaranteed, whereas everyone else is upwards of 80% guaranteed.

Jacas' contract should be around 4/$8.72M with around $7-7.5M guaranteed.

IF they're all healthy we might have to move a WR or two. Pop Douglas sounds like he's having a Strong camp: has he figured out McDaniels Offense from the Slot?? Also intrigued to see where Kyle Williams is at he could be a DeVonta Smith type in this Offense.
