glad to have AP back.

Re: Offseason Roster Moves Thread
 

NFL.com suggests we should go after Cooper and have the cap to do that. But can't help feeling if we commit $10M+ to Hooper (for example) and $15M+ to Cooper that's more than 1/2 our cap space eaten up on 2 players. Is Cooper worth chasing? I'd lean towards teh draft myself.

yes to both. We will likely enter free agency top 6 in cap space and this includes Alex Smith's 20M in dead money. Next year, with the likely insurance settlement and tax credit, we can move that off the books. Not to mention we'll be under a new CBA that should increase the cap significantly in coming years.

Bottom line - we've got plenty of money to play with. We're loaded with defensive talent in the front 7 and this is before chase young. Add a starting CB, and Del Rio will have enough to get some good production out of our defense. We need to surround Haskins with talent. Giving him an elite TE and WR to pair with McLaurin would go a LONG way towards ensuring Haskins has everything he needs to succeed.

No reason to bring back AP. My reasons are that I don't want backs that are not a threat to catch the ball. Also we are still in rebuild mode so I'm not going to have a fossil RB. Even though AP can still play I just don't get this one. Let him go somewhere where he can possibly get a title.

If AP wanted to go somewhere to get a title, it would have happened already. I'm fine with this, AP can bring leadership to the RB group and the offense altogether.

Also, if Guice injury concerns go away and we have a nice tandem of Guice and Love, you can always trade AP later in the year.

Shooting in the dark - TE Kyle Rudolph will be cut. I dont want him, hes 30 and on the down side. Calais Campbell, Marcel Dareus, Cameron Hayward, Joe Haden, Cordraell patterson looks to be a cut.

We should see some cuts coming in soon, kinda surprised things havent kicked off yet.

FA - i would only sign guys coming off their rookie deals that their original team wanted to keep but couldnt bc of price or glut at position. We lost Preston Smith and Trent Murphy that way. Those seem like the real value buys vs 30 plus year old FAs.

No reason?

Have you seen the injury reports from the past 2 years? He's our only consistent player in the backfield.

And at that price I feel it was a no-brainer to bring him back.

Reading this, I can't believe Reed wants to play again. The League and NFLPA should step in for the health of the player.

What can they do? He's been medically cleared.
