  1. Forget picks, they have so much unused capital it's not funny. They couldn't invest it all into deals for players they already have if they wanted to for all the players whose contact is coming up, and to wait until the off season to me is just cocky and greedy. They have a golden chance to do something special this season, and they still have plenty on need on both sides of the ball. And that's IF everyone that's healthy stays healthy. I don't get it. I really thought they were gonna get a top shelf edge rusher. But they're still in a much better position than last year, and much better than I right they'd be. So I'm not gonna start doubting Mike Vrabel. I just don't personally understand what the deciding factor was.

  2. No need and glad they didn't. They win this year they are so ahead of any timeline we fans could have imagined. They don't win this year then add more talent next year and let the rest of the NFL worry.

  3. I hate how the Media just wants something to talk about.the team is fine. We don't have to swing for the fences in year one and blow the load just because your not satisfied with the sack numbers.

  4. Stupid not making a deal take advantage of good start. When the schedule is harder next year. The Chief / Bills / Ravens are better next year. The injury bug is a lot harder on your team and your record is worst you’re going to be saying “we should’ve struck while the iron was hot last year.”

  5. Vrabel knows this team has more holes than you can fix at one trade deadline. You don't half ass fill a hole in a seller's market. You wait for FA and the draft to get the guy that best fits your system. The team is already outperforming expectations, but don't have everything they need for a SB run. Drake is still learning the offense along with the skill players…Patience is the key

  6. I look at it like this:

    We can not only roll forward the extra cap space by NOT trading, we also has 11 draft picks when we do NOT have 11 holes on the roster anymore. We can both sign Christian AND trading UP in the draft to fill 3 or 4 holes NEXT year.

    And btw, they would be on what? 4 or 5 year ROOKIE contracts. We both sign the critical vets AND trade up for the rookies to fill the holes.

    Makes sense to me! The weakest schedule in the league might win the division THIS YEAR.

    GO PATS!!! 💪👊❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥
