Adding Arroyo as a weapon isn't a negligable impact...that dynamic is gonna give fits to OC's already trying to figure out how to stop our WR's, RB's, and Barner. A TE that can split the seam like a speedy WR is a wrinkle they will struggle to address.
Agree that Hall & KT would be a good tandem baseline for 2027, + whomever they add in the draft next year.
Ideally KT would be willing to restructure his $15m to reduce cap hit this year...possibly adding void years. If he performs and they want to sign him, they can restructure his deal for...
And we need to restock that position with only Hall signed beyond next year and the others in the "aging" category. JS always looking at good fit options.
There's a decent possibility one of the PS players makes the 53 next year as well.
I have a different POV...I think KT needs a new scene and MacDaddy's coaches have shown they can turn decent players into highly productive ones.
Not sure I'd part with a 3rd flat out...maybe make it a conditional 4th to 3rd, depending on some reasonable metric.
That's a great point. We've had our own past mini dream offseason's that culminated in continued mediocrity.
The assertions that the lambs now reign supreme are just speculative. You have to play the games to establish truth.

There's a BIG "IF" associated with their drafted QB. No doubt was the head scratcher of this draft and rumor was McVay wasn't sold. I'd like to see him play a season before providing a POV on that draft pick/
with a body that's a year older. He was able to stay healthy this year, but...
The gap between Garrett and Verse is probably equivalent to roughly:
5-8 more sacks
More pressures
More double-team attraction
Better performance in critical downs
That matters enormously in playoff games but it is not the difference between having a good pass rush and having one. The Rams...
I remember that game. Our bus to the lot in Tacoma stopped about 2 miles short of our car, opened the door and said everyone out. Had to walk the 2 miles and then I5 was shut down south of Olympia. Stayed the night in a hotel.
Brutal.
The freeze line was the stadium. Everyone headed North...
