Have Rankin and Remmers hold this spot down until Fisher gets back.

Again. This needs to be repeating: we are not facing the Bucs pass rush every week. The closest thing is the Chargers and Melvin Ingram is probably leaving.

Some of you guys are acting like we’re playing the best pas rush in the league every week LMAO

If I'm Veach, and these guys clear medical concerns, I'd do this:

re-sign Osemele.
re-sign Remmers as super-sub.
sign Jason Peters as stop-gap/swing tackle/mentor for young'uns like Niang, a new draftee, Wanegho.
sign Justin Britt to a cheap deal.

and week one probably looks like:

Peters/early OT draftee like Eisenberg/Radunz/Little
Osemele
Britt
LDT
Niang

I would expect that Fisher returns at some point, and that Schwartz does not.

In my mind we need a LT and a center.

Allegretti and LDT will be the guards and Niang is your RT.

But they could surprise me and think that Niang can play LT.

You've either got to get a plug and play rookie LT (possible at 31 but probably unlikely) or go get a Jason Peters, Trent Williams type.

I don't know if we can afford to trot Wylie or Remmers out there again.

Go look at the Eagles cap situation. They lose money cutting Kelce. And they’re already like $40 million over the projected cap. I have no clue what the **** they’re going to do.

Sassy Squatch 02-11-2021 12:41 PM

Please no Remmers or Wylie. They're like Ford and Berry to me. Never want to see them anywhere near this organization ever again.

If you could play him at LT and he's really good there, that fixes a problem long term really cheaply. I would do that.

Figure out the RT spot.

Now I wouldn't pay him what the open market probably would. But I would welcome him back on the cheap.

Cheap, short-term deal is fine with me. That at least kicks the can down the road a year and you can upgrade later.

If he’s your worst offensive starter, then you’re fine.

Our 25 year old Franchise QB has missed games and had injury concerns the last 2 years. If we have to go overboard a bit here, well, it is what it is.

Figure out the RT spot.

You can find a RT in the 2nd or 3rd round. I’m hoping to God that Niang can hold down that LT spot and that was the plan for him.

smithandrew051 02-11-2021 12:44 PM

Niang is the key to how quickly and easily we can fix the OL. Having one OT and both guards at least temporarily filled makes this whole offseason much more manageable.

Robinson is everything that Sammy Watkins is supposed to be for this offense in an ideal world. I would be beyond stoked if we got him.

But yeah, probably too expensive.

He is essentially a 2021 draft pick already made. His contract even reflects it now.
