One of the things that made the Patriots dynasty happen was their ability to change when needed. They went from 4-3 to 3-4, then 4-3 under looks.
They also went from big time outside targets with Moss to a heavy double TE duo to a run the ball and matriculate it down the field. I hope that’s what we are doing with our additions. I’d love to mix a few power runs with RoJo and draft a 2nd TE like McBride to pair with Kelce. A good TE is probably the biggest mismatch for an offense bc you can’t put a LB on them bc they’re too slow and you can’t put a DB on them bc they aren’t big enough. I’m all for drafting a TE early. You can get another bigger speed receiver in the 3rd rd or our late 2nd

I'd just like to remind everyone that Noah Gray had seven catches all year.
Seven. |

That's why we should draft Austin Allen

I said it back in his rookie year - I was FLOORED by how polished Hill was as a WR. The little false footfires and the things he did to get his body into position to make a cut at full speed - that stuff looked easier than falling out of bed for him. His head/shoulders moved naturally when he'd sell a route. He'd adjust to the ball like it was nothing. His body control was unreal. And it all happened for him immediately. Tyreek Hill didn't learn to play WR - he was born to play it. He was playing it like he'd done it for a decade almost overnight. Meanwhile someone like Hardman may just NEVER figure all those little things out. And even if he improves in those areas, it'll be mechanical. It will never come as naturally to him as it came to Hill. Staylor and I had this discussion with somebody as it related to Julio Jones and Devante Adams not terribly long ago. Someone was underselling them as #2 wideouts who were largely system products for some bizarre reason. And I just could not impart onto them the WR things those guys do so well that allow them to get open. It really is more of an art than some realize or acknowledge. And Hill was just a born prodigy in that regard.

I mean Tyreek's rookie year he had 593 receiving yards. Hardman had 538. Id bet a large amount of money the majority of his rookie yardage was in the screen game (catch and run) or just straight go routes. He was not a super star overnight there was a learning curve there.

I posted this in the Shenault thread, meant to put it here...
What if? Lets say they pull off a trade for DK. They immediately sign him to a new contract for roughly 20 million a year with a low cap hit this year. We are paying him top WR money for his past production but not THE top, he gets his money sooner and gets Patrick. This helps him out as well as the Chiefs. Then if he blows up which is likely, hes already under contract for 4 years? Win Win! |

Trading for DK means no pass rush but I wouldn't care. We would dominate on offense.

He isnt going to get a new contract this year from the Seahawks, he could be tagged next year so still no new contract. He has no QB in Seattle, hard to build your brand over the next two years with no QB. He gets his money NOW instead of a maybe in the next year or two. He goes to a much better team with the BEST QB in the league. He then gets another contract at 29 after winning a few Superbowls! |

What would DK's cap charge be on the tag next season?

I'd sign him for $18.5 annually in a heartbeat. That's like $12m less than Hill was asking.
