I like Geno and it's a hard no. Spend that money on rebuilding the trenches for the next 2-3 years.
That’s the approach that lacks excitement….and it’s 100% the way I’d go. For the next 2-3 years, unless there’s a can’t miss QB, WR, Safety, or Edge available when our pick comes, my choice would be the best O-lineman available…
And I do mean ‘can’t miss’. As the draft is a crap shoot, I doubt we run into that scenario.
We have an NFL comeback player of the year (Geno) and a couple of RBs that were considered either the top (K9) or high up there (Charbonnet) and we can’t do diddly squat.
This isn’t pee-wee ball where you run gimmicky plays and only need the fast little dude that runs jet sweeps all day..
Put our skilled players behind a stout line and we have a Top 5-7 offense. But, Father Time isn’t going to wait for us to develop a line so, invest in the future now and quit blowing smoke up everyones ass by saying things like ‘we’re only 1-2 pieces away’ and rebuild this team the right way.
I do like Geno. I love his story. I love his resilience.
But it’s time to clean house.
