2023 Official Roster Build Thread - The Initial 53 / Practice Squad

Speaking of Leonard Cohen, let's hope that the Bolts are NOT a "Bird on a Wire"...

I love that guys rendition of "Dancing to the End of Love". The instrumentation is so great!

The Jets want to move on from WR Denzel Mims. He was pretty good at Baylor, NYJ drafted him 59th overall in 2020, and he's been a huge disappointment in three seasons. They are trying to trade him but may have to end up just releasing him. The thing is he's a big WR, 6-3 207, who ran a 4.38 40 at the 2020 Combine. The Chargers' WR room is pretty well stocked, but he'd fit right into the the upper stratosphere type of passing game Moore is talking about. If he's cut surely some team will claim him. If not, I'd try to get him on the Bolts' PS.

I'd prefer to see FA DB's, DL over anything else at this point.

We are LOADED at wideout...I'd rather we sign a decent free safety, D-line or possibly RB...FS is top need IMHO...

PS sounds good. Cheap quality welcome.

I'm suggesting PS only. And remember last year for part of the season Mike, Keenan and Jalen were all out, and the top 3 wideouts were Josh Palmer, DeAndre Carter and Michael Bandy because there was no depth on the PS.

I'd still rather save $$$ for a FS, where we are woefully thin...maybe even sign a solid D-line and RB, and THEN, if we have any leftover change, get a wideout...

Hmmm. Sounds intriguing.

But we'd have to have an understanding of WHY he flopped with the Jets to know if <whatever it is> has a sporting chance of being corrected.

So... Why did he bomb?

The Chargers placed Wilson on the non-football illness list Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

The severity of the aliment remains unclear, but Wilson is eligible to practice and/or play at any point during the preseason. The Florida State product signed with the Chargers as an undrafted free agent at the end of April after posting a career-best 495 receiving yards during his final collegiate campaign.

Is he better than Guyton?

[chargeroo]

If they use what's left of their salary cap on another WR, it would be stupid. Get a Safety or Corner.

He’d compete against Guyton, one would be cut. Minimal cap difference perhaps, not sure what that guy would want and don’t know he’s any better. They wouldn’t carry 7 WRs on the roster, that would be crazy. But you’re right big picture, they an’t gonna be shuffling any new WR5/6 backup options for camp competition at this point, they got bigger things to pay attention to
