We are paying Ridley 18M to play for us and 5M not to torch our CBs for Jags next year. May be worth it...
The next 2 years have got to be all about finding out whether Levis is our franchise QB....which means that we have to give him an OL and guys who can catch the ball... I don't have a problem over-paying a liitle for a WR who is a deep ball threat and scores TDs... we now need to add Boyd as the cheap vet who will man the slot and can help teach everyone the new system.
Signing AJ to a big long deal back then would have been like buying a Ferrari and entering it into a demolition derby. Our offense didn’t justify a $25mil WR
Debatable.
I agree completely. Also while Ridley's money seems high, it is around the 9th highest WR and before you know it, he will be around 15th or lower.
The cost for Ridley is worth it just to find out if Levis is the guy or not. Spend it now, judge your product at QB, and either build him up or move on.
Think it says LT more than anything else.
I agree. There are enough weapons, with an improved OL that Levis has no excuse in 2024. Show us something to get excited about, or Callahan can pick out his QB of the future in 2025.
If Levis isn't the guy we always have Rudolph or Willis
Has Chase Young, DJ Reader, Arik Armstead or Jerome Baker signed with us yet?
Simmons won't let Chase slack here.

Willis is as good as gone.
Will be interesting to see if Levis goes back to #7.
I guess we'll see about Willis now that Rudolph is signed
There's no way we're keeping Willis on the roster.
I just want Willis gone so GOT can stop making creepy comments/jokes about him every five minutes.
He is the only one who keeps bringing him up.
He is the only one who keeps bringing him up.
Yet he's still on it
No. That’s dumb, but that doesn’t mean it’s impossible.
Can’t tell if that’s sarcasm or not. You know that doesn’t make any sense right? We have 55, or however may other positions, to pay.
Willis is going to the PS and no one is going to pick him up. I like the Rudolph signing due to the price we got him. Hate to see paying 10 mil for a backup QB to sit the bench and play maybe 150 snaps in a year.
This said after the Ridley signing I am becoming more optimistic even though we way overpaid for a 30 yr old receiver. I also think it's not crazy we land Bowers or Harrison Jr in the draft which would just be an insane turn around for the offensive weapons on this team. I know Harrison JR seems like he is out of reach but here is how it could play out..
Bears - QB
Commanders - QB
Patriots - QB
Cardinals - LT (released theirs today)
Chargers - Edge / CB / Bowers
Giants - CB / Edge
Titans - Harrison Jr /Bowers
