Maybe we'll just sign Gerald McCoy. Sounds like his time is up in Tampa.

Do people really think the Chiefs had the best pass rush in the league?
You don't finish 31st in yards allowed with the league's best pass rush. You just don't. The Chiefs accumulated sacks because the defense was on the field a lot. No three and outs and a quick-score offense = many more opportunities for pressure. I'm pretty sure their sack rate wasn't amazing. |

Yeah, I mean, no matter what if you don't hit on draft picks you're ****ed.
I've been thinking a lot about 'talent' in the NFL. So many teams are lacking 'talent'. yet, on draft day, the pundits love their picks and think they've really done a great job of increasing their talent levels. And then those same teams continue to suck. Why? Coaching. Player DEVELOPMENT. These guys don't arrive as finished products. We've done a shit job on the defensive side of the ball in player development for a while now. This year, ironically, you could argue that they did their best job in that department, although it's too little too late. Jones, Ford, Ward, Watts, O'Daniel, Lucas, Nnadi all showed growth and promise. I think a new staff could help these guys all take the next step. I'm optimistic. I wouldn't mind if Spags keeps Mike Smith around, he's done well with his position groups the last two years. |

Sacks don't mean anything if you can't stop the run against a good offense that exposes this weakness especially in the playoffs. See the Pats game and time of possession.

He has a base salary of 15m for this season. If you're going to trim enough to get his hit for 2019 down to a reasonable amount, yeah he could get more in a FA market filled with teams that have more cap space than sense.

Also a good question to ask, I dunno this since I didn't follow the guy closely. What is Spags record for playing young players? Sutton seemed really averse to it..hopefully this guy isn't like that.

If after making something like 85 million dollars in his career he'd rather play for a bottom feeder to keep getting the jack than be on a winner on the cusp then hey more power to him.

I doubt all of that, so I expect they'll cut bait June 1st and get the $9m or so back. You can get a good S for that money. Houston is due $21m. No way you pay that. He restructures or he's gone, and you get like $15m back. You can get a fine DE for that money. Both are 30. Both are huge injury concerns. You just can't have that much money tied up in guys that are unavailable that often. |

It's time to start over, the cornerstones of the past are aging and injury prone.
