The Tailgate
Menu
It's officially the offseason and let's be honest every team needs something. You're gonna see a few new QB's on a few new teams and a lot of other changers goin on around the league. So let's get right into and see what we at the tailgate think what each team needs this offseason, starting with the NFC and AFC east..... AFC EAST Buffalo Bills: Defensive line and offensive line The Bills are actually one of the lucky teams, where they don't have many holes to fill on this team. If this was at the beginning of the season I would have said wideout but with the emergence of Gabriel Davis, he and Stefon Diggs will be a solid 1-2 punch. The offensive line gelled towards the end of the season but My could use someone up front to maybe not get Josh Allen murdered. I'm thinking more d-line for Buffalo, Ed Oliver has played well when healthy but Vernon Butler and Harrison Philips are set to become free agents so the Bills could look to get a defensive tackle late in the first round. New York Jets: Wide Receiver I could have went the obvious route here and said offensive line, mainly because Zack Wilson did almost get murdered this season. Wilson needs some weapons, their offense is an absolute joke. I literally had to look up their roster to find out who their wide receivers even are. To be honest I'm still not sure. Braxton Barrios is a free agent and Jameson Crowder. I think they'll take Evan Neal from Alabama if he is still there when they pick at 4 but this draft is deep with wideouts and they can find a gem in rounds 2 or 3. Miami Dolphins: offensive line I think Tua has made strides to be a better QB, he isn't there yet but with Mike McDaniel now working with him you might see him take that extra step. They could use another wide receiver to compliment Jaylen Waddle but I think they really do need to revamp this offensive line because it is pretty horrendous. Tua had no pocket last year and playing against defenses like Buffalo and New England 4 times a year that could spell trouble in Miami. New England Patriots: Wide Receiver Mac Jones was perhaps a shock to a lot of people this year but now they have to give him some weapons. Jones is an accurate guy and will just keep getting better but he's not Tom Brady so he can't make chicken salad out of chicken shit like Brady did for so many years. This is far fetched(mainly because I think these guys are going to re-sign with their teams) but if I'm New England I just take a fuck ton of money and throw it at Davante Adams, Chris Godwin or Mike Williams. If that fails? Allen Robinson from Chicago is a real good option because there isn't a chance in hell that he re-signs back in Chicago. NFC EAST New York Giants: offensive line This isn't even a fucking question, the Giants have been "fixing" their offensive line for about a decade now and it's been terrible. Their big move was to sign Nate Solder from New England, a 33 year old vet on the back 9 of his career. Their last 3 first round picks that were offensive lineman were, Justin Pugh, Ereck Flowers and Andrew Thomas. Pugh was average at best, Flowers was atrocious and the jury is still out on Thomas, so for fucks sake draft a lineman. If Neal is there when they pick and they don't draft him? I would give up on this team if I was a Giants fan. Washington Commanders: Quarterback and a new Owner Another obvious one in my opinion here. I love Taylor Heinicke, dudes an absolute gamer but I just don't think he's the guy to lead this team back to the playoffs. Washington is picking at #11 in the draft, look for them to take a serious look at Kenny Pickett from Pitt or Matt Corral from Ole Miss to fill their QB void. Also Dan Snyder is a shit head and needs to sell the team. Dallas Cowboys: Edge Rusher Odds are the Cowboys won't have DeMarcus Lawrence and Randy Gregory, Lawrence may be let go for money reasons and Randy Gregory is a free agent so he may land somewhere else. Who knows though they could both be back I'm not Adam Schefter. They could get someone in the draft or get someone via free agency. There are some names out there but they may come at a price, names like Chandler Jones, Dante Fowler or even Mario Addison could be a good pick up for Dallas but it's more likely they could pick someone in the draft. I'm a huge fan of George Karlaftis from Purdue and if he falls to #24 that would be an absolute steal for Dallas. Philadelphia Eagles: Wide Receiver and Defensive Back I don't know who the fuck they have at wide receiver or defensive back to be honest with you, do they still have Asante Sameuel? I think his kid is actually in the NFL now. I think Jalen Hurts isn't a bad QB I just think he has no weapons around him. I just remembered they have DeVonta Smith at wideout while writing this blog, so he's pretty good....maybe get him another wide receiver? I don't think Jalen Reagor is the guy. But their secondary is horrendous and I love Ahmad Gardner from Cincinnati in the draft, big body guy, great in man to man coverage, that would be a big get for Philly.
