If not, BPA weighted for need, but we have needs at every position.

I don't agree with this statement at all. We have good starters and backups at QB, OT, and ILB. I think we'll be fine at CB and S as well.

Beyond that, we won't know the positions where we have the most pressing needs for the draft until after free agency. Just as Paul Richardson changed the outlook at WR, If we sign Hankins he will change the outlook for the DL.

Who are our 3 CBs in nickle?

Who comes in when Montae gets hurt?

Foster is an average to below average NFL starter, he isn't special, his new contract reflects the reality. Brown is really good against the run, he is a liability in coverage. His contract reflects that he is above average, to good, not great.

You cool with Vigil and Spaight starting 3 or 4 games next year?

Zach Brown and Foster were balling out last year when the DL was healthy !
And Zach Vigil played really well, what he did behind a depleted DL at the end of the season is underrated IMO.

Draft picks are always a toss up anyway, so I'd rather take the chance at a position we don't have a viable option than hoping to get an upgrade over what we have while leaving a gaping hole on our roster.

I get the logic but any position group can be depleted with injuries during any stretch of games.

So the long term strategy of picking the best player available is better than passing on superior talent to only fill a need. I realize need is a factor but passing on superior talent, more times than not doesn't pay off.

If the FO thought the next Luke Keuchly was available at 13, should be pass on him and pick a different position?

And no disrespect but Foster is just a guy, with a 2mil per year contract: https://overthecap.com/position/inside-linebacker

We really need to make this happen with Hankins ,it would take care if a position of major need 🙏

Not trying to be smart, but what should we remember about him?

Phil Taylor was good when he was healthy, unfortunately, he did not stay healthy.... bring him to camp on a minimum contract, if he can pass a physical

I'm sure they will. What are the chances Phil Taylor is healthy this year, and is able to stay healthy? If he does, it would be the first time in his career.

I think Taylor is a pipe dream, if he does anything, he would be a value signing.

I second this. Been years since Phil Taylor has been an effective lineman, at some point you can't keep relying on him.

Every year we bitch about not having a stud DT, and every year we are left complaining. I like Ioannidis but he still has plenty of room for improvement, and if every SB winner of the last decade hasn't taught anyone anything, it's that having a thick d-line rotation is never a bad thing.

I think the guy was ready to have a comeback year before getting injured. Hopefully he comes back healthy, hungry, and ready to prove to everyone he’s the pro bowler he should be. Has anyone heard anything on him? We could really use a healthy, hungry Taylor

This thinking by the front office that he was the answer at NT was completely fraudulent and, once again , poor logic.


Get this guy in a skins uniform now Bruce:

He would be a definite upgrade to the unit. He is solid and that sounds like a good deal if he is as good as he was when he was playing for the Giants.
