Trade Erik McCoy for Jackson Powers Johnson and a 2nd or 3rd from the raiders. He has struggled but he’s 22 on a rookie deal and was the best center when he was drafted… shed cap land a pick and someone to develop that might just need a fresh start
Yours truly reached 800+ subscribers.
There’s going to be a lot of changes in the off-season!
Definitely cut Ruiz!
Who was last years cuts?
Ruiz for sure. He gotta go!
My biggest off season hope is: I hope they put Drew on their coaching staff.
Ruiz
Cesar Ruiz 💯 the worst guard in NFL history by a mile.
Erik McCoy is too injury prone & I’ll rather get someone new in the draft or free agency. Almost 30 years old too. He is Terron Armstead with the injuries. A top 10 Center but we need to get more younger players. I said what I said.
AK needs to retire
They got rid of Micheal Thomas and f’d up. Haven’t had a receiver better. Leave Kamara and Cam alone.
Ruiz should have gotten his walking papers right after the Falcons game. Kamara needs to stay with the team and maybe after fixing the O line then Kamara wouldn't get smashed constantly. We also need a center slash guard to replace our center who can't stay healthy! Smdh
Keep Carl
Definitely Ruiz
We are better when McCoy is at center
Keep estime for the love of god ⚜️⚜️
Grando is my guy but to start off early in season and have 4 sacks then finish with only two more speaks volumes itself as a statistic
Trade Ruiz for a bag of skittles..about what he is worth
Cut Miller and Ruiz for sure
Restructure McCoy contract
Restructure AK41 is the answer
Thank you 900su
Do not Sabotage players
AK and Cam will restructure. Cut Ruiz, trade McCoy. I like Grandy, but I can see us parting ways. I would love to see us sign Khalil Mack in his place. Mack followed Brandon Staley from Chicago to the Chargers bc he loved Staley's system (17 sacks in 2023!)… Can you imagine Khalil Mack lining up next to Chase Young?!
