[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 821000, member: 6578"] I am right there on board with Dantes post about realistic expectations for a SB is not 2019, but 2020-2022. Am I writing us off for 2019, absolutely not! With AR, motivated coach, crazy growth occurring at the skill positions anything could happen but the realistic fan in me says 2020 is the big push year more so. Few thoughts streaming from my mind: [B]RESIGNING THOUGHTS:[/B] -I think one FA folks seem to breeze over is Breeland. Arguably to me there has not been a player more than Breeland whom has come into FA's off our roster that I've desired we resign more. The impact he could potentially have is incredible IMO. Jaire LOVES the man, he delivered exceedingly well when he did play last year...and he is a mere 26 years old...if King keeps struggling health wise, Breeland could become the second fist in the one-two punch at CB with Jaire we hoped King would be. To me of the entire list of FA's hitting the market this year from GB's roster he should be the #1 to re-sign. -Cobb/Matthews/Tramon thank you, it sucks to see you all go (Tramon for the second time) but simply not worth investment cap hit the three take. -Jake Ryan, I feel is going to be re-signable at a more than efficient rate for return on investment.
