sdskinsfan2001 01-12-2018, 06:20 PM Long's natural position is at G. I think he'd be solid there, and a definite upgrade from Luavo. I'd rather go after other positions in FA (WR, FS, ILB, NT come to mind).
Yeah he's better thab Luavo but I might be too lol. I'd be ok with Long but we can upgrade with a draft pick or FA (I'd prefer a middle pick or Q. Nelson whenever we could get him).

Don't get me wrong -- not averse to picking up a G. I just think Long knows the offense, seems to click with our O-linemen, and at his natural position would enable us to focus on FAs where the need is greater than G.
I really hope we re-sign Zach Brown, or we really have major ILB needs. Foster is good against the run, but doesn't seem like a QB for the D. Compton seems an able QB on D, but his physical skills don't render him a good starter (and he's a FA anyway). Spaight is a work in progress. I keep wondering whether with Kerrigan and Smith locks at OLB whether there's any thought about Ryan Anderson moving inside (I realize they're different positions, but I wouldn't think his physical skills would be unsuited to ILB).
FS is a real need; Swearinger should be a SS. Nicholson certainly flashed, I am not sure he's quite ready for the full time role, and his rookie season had a number of injuries.
And our WR situation is not good -- I think Doctson does take the next step in 2018, but we need someone else (a burner, if possible) on the outside. I like Grant as a solid possession receiver. Would like to see what Mo Harris can do with an expanded role (that catch against the Vikes was sick). And I am very intrigued by Robert Davis' size -- would be great to see him step up and command some playing time. But I think our #2 WR for 2018 isn't on the roster yet.

My dream is Roquan Smith and Brown feasting sideline to sideline. I'd franchise tag Brown if we can't get long-term deal.
I agree regarding FS and WR.

Now THAT would be something. Feel free to go over the middle, folks. You'll do that once.

So, do you think Doctson will be WR #1 ? I doubt it.
Doctson certainly has the skills to be a true #1. Way too early to dismiss him.

For whatever reason, I still think he's going to be a pro bowl caliber or better player. Hope I'm right. Its his 3rd year, usually when a lot of WRs start "getting it".

Doctson is the #77 ranked WR..... he has a long way to go to be a true #1 WR He caught less than 50% of his targeted throws. I hope he develops, but he is a big ?

He's a possession guy that drops the ball too much... not a good combo but we will see

I would love to see Ryan Anderson move inside in a 4-3, picture this front 7 (/ = rotates with):
Smith/Galette/Murphy - Allen - Ioannidis/Lanier - Kerrigan
Ryan Anderson - Mason Foster - Zach Brown
Upgrade one or two spots with the FAs/draft picks of your choice and tell me you don't like this D !
