Beckham Jr would be cool, just a fun question. I doubt we get him because CLE would likely trade him before cutting him. Someone would make a move for him unless we did a legendary 3-team trade, which almost happened apparently.

It also sounds like literally everyone is saying “Roman, your passing offense sucks bruh”

I really dont want him. I dislike wrs that we have to force ourselves to involve. Gonna be running screens and trick plays and just fking up the team chemistry just for him.

Per say we do reach a deal with Lamar what do you guys think we will pay him and how many years? I think it's a 4-5 year deal of some sort you'd have to imagine they don't want to go too far out like a Pat Mahomes 10year wild deal

probably be a 5 year deal to spread out the guarantees, but it will be an extension but the big cap hits won't start until two years from now.

So the Texans are interviewing David Culley tomorrow. Culley has been the assistant Head Coach/Pass Coordinator/WR Coach for the past two years. Yet we can't seem to get a passing attack going and develop wide receivers. So by chance they hire him as their Head Coach, would this be an improvement for us in the passing game if we had a different passing coordinator and WR Coach who actually can develop Receivers?

ah, got it. Didn't understand the reference.

It would be great to have a real offense next season. Think we would need to fire Greg Roman for that to happen though.
Yeah I was referring to the homegirls thing and the tweets they made when Peters was extended

Sorry for derailing this JO, but this is absolutely hilarious. Culley has been horrendous and STILL gets an interview over Roman. I mean does Harbaugh and company not catch the drift? Cool guys, let’s run at historic rates but do jack shit in the playoffs because the passing game is absolutely awful

Lol

He might get the job simply because he’s the only coach willing to take it at this point haha

seems unlikely though

but if he did I have no idea what we’d do about WR coach - maybe look outside the organisation or maybe bobby engram steps back into the wr coach role and the assistant TE guy Andy bischoff takes over that position group...

have we heard anything more about joe Cullen and the jags DC job yet?

I guess it makes sense - you take Roman if you want his scheme for your mobile quarterback, and the Cardinals are already set so who else would want him?

I hope we move on from Culley because I want to keep Roman's run scheme but we NEED to develop the pass scheme. If that doesn't improve next year then Roman has to go whoever the assistant is.

No thanks. Keep Beckham miles away from Baltimore, if he goes to Washington he’d be too close for comfort

It'll depend on what Prescott gets if Prescott signs his deal first. I don't see how we can say Lamar is better than Dak or vice versa. It'll probably be 5 yrs 40mil ish at the most. I'm hoping we don't go over 35/yr

hopefully he signs his deal before Dak Prescott, because Lamar is the better player.

Do we get comp picks if Culley is hired as the Texans HC? Has that minority hiring measure been officially passed yet or no?

How can you definitively say he's better. Yeah Lamar won the MVP but before he got injured Dak was playing out of his mind. He basically had 2,000 yards over 5 games
I think he is the better all around player and has less talent around him. Look at last years passing game and that is what Lamar can do. He definitely had an off year and I'd blame the offensive line, Greg Roman and the talent around him. Just my opinion and I do like Dak Prescott as a QB and I don't even consider passing yards as a statistic when I consider who is a better QB.

You’re not wrong but Beckham could be elite here (or terrible) with Roman since he seems to be capable of only use one WR. It isn’t my top option honestly but he is still freaky good when healthy and involved. Would you rather have AB?

I say let Culley go and hopefully he does. I feel like Roman needs to go but won’t. If we can’t shed Roman then I hope we can get someone better to fill Culley’s role.
No thanks. Keep Beckham miles away from Baltimore, if he goes to Washington he’d be too close for comfort
I hear you and he’s not ideal but at the same time he would easily become the best WR on the roster and also our biggest headache. It’s literally boom or bust.

So what are you guys thoughts on what we do at the WR position? We have to do something. As much as I love Snead I think his time is up in BMORE. I think this corps needs retooling. I really think ARob, Corey Davis and Kenny Golladay are at the top of our wishlist. I think Arob and corey Davis are my first choices but honestly I think we may take 2 WR especially if we let Willie walk. The FA class is massive. Now for the more unrealistic but possible ideas... Trad for Julio????? or Michael Thomas??? The Saints cap situation is awful you would have to imagine they are going to have to do some sort of fire sale lol. My final thought is on OBJ and thats a hard pass we seen how Earl Thomas turned out I'm staying away from that toxic energy

It all sounds great in theory but we have some big contracts already signed and some more big contracts coming up. To get a WR to come here, you're going to have to outbid AND convince them even though their stats are going to take a dip. Just not sure a FA acquisition is feasible. Would love any of those guys but money talks and we don't have a bunch.

So then what?? We've proven time and time again that we can't develop receivers, or use them properly. What, draft two receivers who never see the field, or see the field and don't produce because they aren't being used properly. Hard pass. Bring someone in who is actually talented and developed.
