The focus in the 2025 offseason should be cutting Carr, Lattimore, Ram, and others so improve our long term salary cap picture. Designating Carr and Lattimore post-June-1 cuts saves $48 million on the cap in 2025 and even more in the future.

While he's good, doubt he ever wins a Tiffany. He does not read as fast as he needs to. He is exciting to watch when he rolls out.

OTOH, JD5 is looking like he's a cut above. Love seeing his highlights in Washington.

I like Dart, but not over Sanders, Ward, Ewers, or Beck. There’s about three other QB’s I like better as well. I believe Sanders and Ward are a cut above the rest with Ewers following the closest behind.

I’ve stayed up and watched plenty of Colorado games. Sanders made me a believer because I was not one when he was coming out of high school. He’s made a significant leap every single year. He made me stop doubting him. I’m not a day 1 Shedeur guy. I watched him develop.

Cam Ward jumps off the film though. I can’t lie. I’m most intrigued by him. I’ve been beating the drum to draft him but I think Sanders is the most pro ready and he’s NFL royalty. We might finally get some favoritism. The NFL LOVES PRIME.

Best player available with every pick! We need to prioritize the list of course, but a I would say we’re probably going to be OK at WR so we’ll need everything else! Edge rusher, linebackers, DB’s and TE! My priority would be a QB and not Sanders! We need a leader who isn’t concerned about social media and bling on his wrist!

Always is, IMHO too.

We can make due QB wise with Pretty Boy Haener and the Bayou Rattler as we rebuild.
