Got a gut feeling Dak's gonna take a shit after he gets his extension as well. I know we're better with him on the field, but count me as one who thinks he's fool's gold.

I don't think the market would be that much for Awuzie. I'd extend him for the right price assuming it's relatively cheap.
That said, there isn't a single player on the defense I'd be concerned about losing. Let them all walk for all I care.

Yea, this is what I was bitching about all offseason, we preferred signing 5 Olawale's to one or two legitimate starting caliber players.

I'd consider re-signing either Awuzie or Lewis but only if it's cheap and only because I don't want them to reach for a CB in the draft. If they're BPA, fine, but I don't want them locking in on a CB 6 weeks before the draft.

Exactly. Otherwise you end up with the Mo Claibornes of this world.

Are you saying Patrick Surtain is Mo Claiborne? I'm assuming right now he would be a corner rated in the top 10 of this draft.

And what if he goes before our pick? Signing Awuzie for a reasonable price is better than going into a draft absolutely having to take a corner with your first pick. This team needs help everywhere except WR.

so in addition to misjudging the talent they signed, they vastly overpaid said 'talent'

To be fair I don't think we would absolutely need to go CB in the 1st even if we did let Awuzie/Lewis go. We'd still have Diggs and Brown as starters and at first glance this CB class looks relatively deep, at least deep enough that we could easily get a guy who could operate as a 3rd CB/future starter with our top 5-7 pick in the 2nd round.
Even aside from not reaching, I'd also rather them not prioritize CB over front 7, all things being equal. Like, if the choice comes down to Gregory Rousseau or the top CB, I'd rather be in a position to take Rousseau and not the CB.
I do like Farley a good bit but I just can't see us picking any lower than 6-8 and I'd rather go front 7 for sure.

Poe was on thin ice from the get go calling out the owner's race advocacy and then being the only one to kneel during the anthem.
Hilarious that they'd actually say someone will be cut if they can't trade them. Not a great incentive for a trade partner to give up much if anything.
