An under the radar guy I like and we spoke with him is Parker Washington 5'10 212 from Penn State and they say he gets nasty in the run game blocking too.
Boyd is still a top Slot WR, but yeah, he is getting a little up there in age. I think he can play top notch football at Slot for at least
the next 4 years so he should get a nice extension from somebody. Cool on Parker Washington, I like the guy, saw him play a bit
last year and yeah, he is a great blocker with good hands.

I think they'll have the comp pick outcome in the back of their mind, but it's more likely a 5M/yr pass rusher or Tackle takes 4M once the first wave is gone. We really need to cash in there, so I'm not worried if it's quiet the first few days starting tmrw. I'd rather take advantage of those opportunities and forget the comp picks, though they're likely to get one for Bates since it's unlikely they sign anyone close to him to offset that weird system. Same could be for Pratt if they actually lose him there are a lot of cut LBs out there.
Patrick Peterson just gave us a shout out as a team he would like to go to for example. Bobby Wagner would probably want to ring
chase this late in his career etc.
That is what is nice now that we haven't had in the past. We might still have a decent FA even while just trying to hold onto most of
our own because players will take a discount to play with Burrow and this team that is a contender now.
