    Hi, Tour ! Hope you are doing great.

    1. A star wr. Wilson would be it - except I think he'll be gone. Maybe not. He is the closest thing to Jamarr Chase, I think.

    2. A swing tackle. Penning would be great - but as someone else mentioned, first round is too expensive. Watching Hudson have a very bad time, convinces me about it.

    3. KIcker. Need punter. Have to draft one.

    4. A versatile DL

  • Get a new HC.. Shitpantski blows

  • I'd love to get better on the DLine... tougher inside with a starting caliberDT and add a young, pass rusher opposite Myles at DE. 

    A MLB who is stouter vs the run than Walker. 

    Two starting caliber WRs to join DJP. 

    Some developmental OLinemen, and possibly a new starter at RT.

    Co-sign…but most importantly I need a new QB…and They need to have a long talk with Stefanski and his need/desire to call plays

    Someone that can get past the first read and at the very least can manage a game with this run attack and utilize play action.

     I think we can find someone.

    Let’s see a list come draft and FA time.

    Baker has thrown the most INTs of any QB since 2018.  We can’t have that period….and I’m positive we can improve  upon that without even seeing a list

    We have had plenty of film study presented on this forum and other places showing the WTF moments he’s had on a regular basis from a clean pocket.

    I gave him excuses too.

  • You're the GM...

    I'd first want to change the culture of going for it all the time on 4th down.  This would be a lengthy discussion of situations and distances.

    I would view my QB situation as an area of concern.  I would weigh any and all options with that position.  This year's and next year's draft classes, free agents to be, possible trades for a veteran, any and all would be weighed against staying with Baker.  Although Baker can be good...he can also be quite bad. His decision making can be quite bad, like passing up a wide open Njoku who's past the sticks for a shot at a guy farther upfield with a tighter window.  I harken back to early in the season when on 3rd down he had Felton standing on the sidelines, 2 yards past the sticks, nobody anywhere near him, and he DIDN'T throw it to him.  He looked right at Felton, but Instead tried to run and was tackled well short and we had to punt.  I thought it was quite selfish and dumb.  We need smart at QB.

    I'd have to evaluate my Center position.  Do I have someone that will be able to take over for Tretter?

    Obviously, the RT position.  Do we have a successor for Conklin?  Is Conklin going to be ok?  Should I consider moving Wills to RT?  Is he better suited there?  Is that just out of the question money-wise?

    We've gotta rework the WR position!  We need someone who commands attention.  We need to improve the talent there to such a degree that we don't need to have Higgins on the roster any more.  

    The TE position...Hooper has not been great like he was in Atlanta.  And we've gotta keep Njoku because he's the best we got.

    On D, maybe we can get Sheldon Richardson back (no we can't).  We'll need someone to replace Clowney if we don't keep him...and yet another pass rusher.  LB'er is another spot where replacements are needed.  And one can never have enough CB's.  -  I'd keep Denzell Ward.  I know he gets called Hospital Ward because he gets hurt...but what CB's don't get hurt.  He's freaking good!  Keep him!

    ....quite a lot to keep a look-out for...

    Honestly, I'd love to move on from Baker.

    But I'm not moving on from Baker unless I'm 100% sure I've upgraded from Baker, and I just don't see a scenario right now where that realistically happens.
