2018 Forum Mock: Discussion Thread

Given that my window is limited, Unger was an ideal get. A second round pick may be healthy, but a healthy Unger is an elite OL. Big reason that Ingram and Kamara dominated in the run game if you ask me despite his down season run blocking due to the injury. He is an automatic upgrade on the interior. Given that I am also getting Lamp back. Rivers was going to be fine regardless, but the real winner of this trade for me is Melvin Gordon, who has proven to be a very good RB at the NFL level despite a crappy oline put in front of him. As much as I'd like to get rid of Okung, at the very worst he is an inconsistent player who should in theory play better with better guard talent next to him. Thanks to @Truth for getting the deal done.

Well now Buffalo fans can donate to Dalton all they want for being their new starting QB. Glad to also get an improvement at Left Tackle beforr FA.

What the hell was with trading Bakhtiari for Mills?

jeez i only cut a little bit of dead weight but maybe @Simba was right - titans might have too much cap space to work with lol

Haha I mean, you don't have to use it all, but if I had it, I definitely would.

Bills Give:

Tyrod Taylor and use their June 1st exclusion (Miami gains 10 stars, Bills gain 10 stars)

Miami Gives:

Kiko Alonso (Miami gains 3.5 stars, Bills gain 8 stars)

I would advise reconsidering using your June 1st exemption on Taylor. His current cap hit - dead cap lands the regular savings at 9.5 Stars, just .5 shy of the base salary savings. I would recommend using it on another player. Just a thought.

Fvck you Kiko!

Flacco now has 2 guys to throw the ball to, so I already consider this offseason a resounding success.

You forgot Mike Evans will be re-trained by Baltimore receiver coaches and subjected to Marty's playbook. I see lot of short passes over the middle in his near future.

Nah, we'll get Maxx on those. Nothing like a great TE screen.

Good point.

Another good point - he went to Bucs in return.

Either way, looks like @Simba will have to re-sign Ben Watson.

Who got Cook?

Falcons looking for defensive line and interior offensive line. Will look at any and all offers for other positions, though.

My first order as GM was to fire Marty and find someone off the street because I'm pretty sure they have more imagination.
