Detroit: Proven QB and Gibbs are major advantages. Trade up and get Jeanty or land Hampton and that gap closes rapidly. OL is probably a push now. WRs, please. Front 7 definitely in our favor. CB, us. Safety, them easily. Losing Aaron Glenn probably wrecks that potential D.

Eagles: Same deal for QB and RB. OL, they have the edge but not as glaring. WRs, again us. Front 7 is a slight edge for the Eagles. CB is them, S a push.

Rams: QB them, RB push depending on draft. OL us. WRs us. Front 7 push. Secondary us.

Commanders: QB them for now. RB us, OL us. Front 7 us. DBs us.

I’ve got to think FA is done. Gaps will need to be further closed or enhanced by the draft and June 1 cuts. Barron, Jeanty, Harmon, a stud LG…

I just caught up on the moves...and I'm STOKED. Most of our gaps are addressed, though I was hoping "Dimes" would stick around. As long as A-a-ron doesn't fill the backup QB spot, I'm good with things.

KOC needs to draft like he works FA, and he'd be our best GM in agaes.

KOC, JJM, Flores...make a good plan, or you'll be following Kwesi....

I'd put us right in that 2nd tier again - below the Eagles/Lions. I just gotta give those teams the nod when it comes to stopping the pass and their running games are top notch.

JJM such an unknown. But if he can come through we're right there in that next tier with Rams, Packers, Commanders and I think SF bounces back in 25 too.

Qb2 is our biggest hole and we could use another db. Really wanted Reed, but that might have meant no Fries.

The biggest gap is Gibbs and Barkley. We’re outclassed here. Our D mitigates that to a certain extent.

Go get Hampton and figure out a way to land Savion Williams. WR/RB/Wildcat QB/KR all in a 6-5 220lbs 4.4 running Swiss Army knife.

Do it Kwesi. Do it like I’m a make a wish kid.
