If we can't trade him by the end of the draft, maybe then we cut him and focus on extending our own and signing our draft picks. We don't have to cut bait right now in my opinion. His money will pay for our draft picks. If we are planning on cutting him at some point, we can still spend in FA. Although all I expect now are depth signings.
I'm definitely happy with FA. Reader is gunna make our defensive line whole again. He could extend Geno's career by taking so much pressure off of him--freeing him up to make plays. Our edge players will be freed up. Our run defense will be improved. He makes the entire defense better. Then shoring up the tackling in the secondary is a great start. Hoping we can get some good linebackers in the draft to more or less complete the turnaround on D. A solid guard would be great as well.
I keep watching the highlights from Burrow. The guy is just focused. Precise. Accurate. His pocket awareness is truly elite. I can't wait to get this guy signed and see what he can do for our franchise!
You know I always pushed for Billings but he wasn't that bright, he was just insanely strong.
Reader is strong and is very smart and knows how O-lineman are trying to play him. Best pickup I could imagine for this D.
Burrow is just cool man and the way he reads a pocket and the way he hardly ever takes a bad loss is uncanny.
Dude is seriously special the Joe Cool Burrow dude.
