Just do these 4 things....

[Aland]

And we will no longer be a laughingstock 


1 - Trade/Release Dalton, Dre, Bobby Hart, Cordy Glenn, Giovanni Bernard  -  Thats 43 Million free and clear, 3.5M in dead cap sunk money
You can try and trade Dalton, but hes gonna get cut so teams wont give up anything from him. 


You are going to have to overpay roughly 10% for any decent FA - so pick wisely. 

2 - FA Signings:
Brandon Schreff G
Dante Fowler LBD
DJ Humphries OT

3 - Draft:
Burrow - QB - 1
K'Lavon Chaisson - 2 - LB
Jake Breeland - 3 - TE
Justin Jefferson - 4 WR  -
- Sub Colin Johnson if JJ gone
5-7 - OLine/BPA

Yes - 3 LSU players.  

4 - I would offer a 2 year deal to AJ - at a reasonable price.   (25 Mill for 2)
Otherwise, Franchise Him (Sub Optimal Option to pay him that much)   But, you need to roll the dice as shitty as that sounds.

Hhalf of your picks dont make it past the first round let alone the 2nd

[CJD]

Who did Justin Jefferson murder between now and the draft that he falls 3 rounds?

But I like your other moves. signing free agent offensive line upgrades would be a dream come true.

[Aland]

Yeah. Jefferson that late won’t happen

I thought he was more of a 3rd round guy, hoping he’d slip to 1-4

I think chaisson can slip to 33

And the Oregon te is coming off injury

My 4 things:

Trades/Releases:

1) Trade Dalton to anybody, it frees up 17.5 million. looking at Tannehill's trade as a model 5th/7th picks from Titans to Miami. At worst I think it nets us a 6th rounder.

2) Release- Glenn(9.5) no dead cap!!!, Dre (11.2), this frees up roughly 20 million.

Free Agents:

-we normally don't dive in here but I think with a new QB we have to change our thinking a bit.

1) Graham Glasgow-LG (LIONS) starter

2) Joe Schobert-ILB (BROWNS) or Jamie Collins-OLB (PATRIOTS) starter

3) Matt Moore-QB (CHIEFS) Backup

4) Philip Dorsett-WR (PATRIOTS) rotational guy

5) Vonn Bell-SS (SAINTS) starter

Draft:

1) Joe Burrow-QB LSU

2) Cameron Dantzler-CB Mississippi St.

3) Tyler Johnson-WR Minnesota

4) Lucas Niang-OT TCU

5) Maron Davidson-LB/DE- Auburn

6) BPA

6b) from Dalton BPA

7) BPA

Re-Signs:

1) Andrew Billings-NT

2) Darqueze Dennard-CB

3) AJ Green-WR

4) Nick Vigil-LB

5) Brandon Wilson-S/KR

6) Josh Topou-DT

7) Clayton Fedjelum-S

8) Tyler Eifert-TE

These are great ideas from OP and everyone else.

Plus , it is so obvious only the Brown family would disagree or dispute.

All this work and u didn’t address arguably our biggest need... Linebacker. U drafted and signed defensive ends or rush ends not stand up linebacker which means we are still going into the year with Pratt and vigil lmao no thank you.
