Barmore, Roberts and Pharms and no one else for 2025

[mgteich]

Congrats to staff for extending Barmore.
Pharms (a light DT at 300) will be an ERFA in 2025 so we can keep him
We do have Roberts (300) through 2025

DT 2025 FREE AGENTS (please correct me if I am wrong)
Godchaux (310)
Watts (307)
Ekuale (310)
Wise (280)
Hill (310)

Judon will be extended. We will be in reasonable shpe on the EDGE, although we can always use more help.

Our Linebackers corps is in good shape.

We certainly could use a free agent DT.

I think they’re serviceable DTs that are either easily resigned or upgraded next year. That’s not a major area of concern for me now that CB has extended.

A couple years ago, Godchaux agreed to an extension on the first day of training camp. I think it’s pretty obvious that they’ll try to extend him again, as Covington clearly loves him. (He also spoke highly of Jennings in this same press conference, and he of course has already been taken care of.)

I love Deatrich. If he starts to regress with age I think White is his successor.

Godchaux and Wise turn 30 this year. Each should still a few peak years left I'd be happy to have one or both on another contract.

Judon too of course.

Let's see what Watts brings to the table.

But either way with having gone almost all offense in the draft this year adding a DL in the first two rounds next year would make sense.

Thank you all for walking me off the ledge.

Yes, the solution for 2025 is extend to Judon, Godchaux and Wise.

I believe that all want to stay, based on their willingness to negotiate fair deals in the past.

This man can help solve some problems if we're unable to re-sign or add to our DL.
I realize our biggest need is still at LT but this dude......
