And still will be able to fill in with veterans are lower cost deals
    Yeah, you definitely need to spend on the right guys since FA is more miss than hit. We seem to do better with the smaller signings like Woodhead versus a big name FA like Franklin or Travis Benjamin.

      Those are good points. Telesco also missed on Derek Cox who was bigger money

      Maybe Telesco should stick with the Woodhead, Hayward type signings - undervalued players, fewer years, less dollars

          They run different routes, Keenan gets the shorter routes and is a first down machine and likely is the first progression more times than not. He also plays in the slot. MW is usually always outside.

          I don't think Telesco would say what he does about him or offer him a fifth year option if he didn't get open half the time. Silly argument imo.
          I predict Tyron Johnson will get more targets, catch more passes, and rack up more receiving yardage than Mike Williams in 2021. Johnson has elite speed, great hands and is emerging as a superb route runner - a complete package. He is going to have a breakout season and become the Bolts No. 2 WR.

            WTH....I am surprised by that. Makes me think they are going to be going hard after high end oline vets in FA, to protect Burrows...makes sense...then take Farley or Surtain.

              J. Cook, G. Everett and K. Rudolph as well to the TE list.

                I saw Kyle Long was returning from retirement and will be a free agent I wouldn't mind looking into him for the right price.

                  Welcome to TPB.
                  Long is reportedly in excellent condition.
                  As a Bear, he played with an edge.
                  Our Oline needs an attitude adjustment.
                  Maybe we do play modern football.

                    I read that as well. He plays a physical, nasty brand of football.

                      Did anyone see Adam Schefter on Twitter say the Chargers told Henry they would not be tagging him? Not sure if it has been posted yet.

                        They didn't have to say anything...the deadline is past. He isn't tagged.

                          He was suffering...but a years rest may be what it takes for him to play a couple more years...but would Howie let one of his boys don the powder blues?:dunno:
