Catts disappeared in a hurry!
Grave Digger posted:But they are losing Tramon, Blake Martinez, Bulaga, Crosby, Marcades, Allison, Fackrell, Patrick, Lancaster, and Tony Brown. Those guys have been key depth this year. They have $22M in cap space, figure $5-8 of that is rookies, so they will have to get creative if they want to keep Bulaga, who won't be cheap. Ditching Jimmy Graham will save another $8M and Lane Taylor another $4M
I would guess Bulaga would be the priority guy from that list, with Brown and Crosby next, otherwise pretty moderate deals offered to the rest.
Age be damned... Bulaga is playing lights-out football right now. His only knock has been his dependability due to health. If he stays healthy this year, you do what you gotta do to resign him.
He already left a game with a shoulder injury.
They did....and then the refs said down by contact. No fumble.

Chandler Sullivan - 81.9
Will Redmond - 71.7
Tramon Williams - 70.1
BJ Goodson - 68.4
Darnell Savage - 64.4No player on the Green Bay Packers’ defense earned a higher overall grade at Pro Football Focus in Week 5 than cornerback Chandon Sullivan, who delivered an important takeaway in the first half while also helping Mike Pettine patch together his secondary during Sunday’s 34-24 win over the Dallas Cowboys.
Sullivan, who signed with the Packers in May, played a season-high 38 snaps. He produced an interception of Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott in the second quarter and later tipped a pass in the end zone that resulted in another interception, although the turnover was negated by a pair of penalties.
Sullivan’s interception was an impressive play. He broke off his zone coverage underneath, read Prescott’s eyes and leaped high to catch the pass, halting a Cowboys drive.
An undrafted free agent from Georgia State, Sullivan forced his way onto the roster this summer by intercepting a pass and breaking up four others during the preseason. He made plays on the football throughout training camp and displayed the versatility to play snaps all over the secondary.
On Sunday, Sullivan played in the slot, on the perimeter and even a few snaps as a roving safety.

And then played the whole game after that, completely stoning Demarcus Lawrence.
Here is one award down for Jones.
So, we need to draft or acquire in FA: O Linemen; ILB; DT or DE for depth; RB for depth. Sound about right?
Tundra, I think that sounds about right. I would also add WR to that list I think they need some more threats out of WR position.
What about TE? I would imagine Lewis is just about done, Graham has been hit and miss, and Tonyan looks to be a really good one but is very unproven.
Everyone seems to forget about that Sternberger guy on IR.

Disagree that Lewis is done. He's had some key contributions in blocking and receiving so far.

You forgot WR.
I'd prioritize it like this:
- Right Tackle. Re-Up the whale or draft high.
- ILB - Free agent or draft high
- WR - Free agent or high to mid draft
- DT - Free agent or mid draft
- OL Depth - Swing tackle and interior depth.
Gute won't be able to go on another FA spending spree in 2020 like he did last year. We no longer have that kind of cap room, even if we cut some of the larger/older salaries. He'll need to fill at least 2 of those positions in the draft and hope they're ready to make an impact right away.

It’s been reported that Lewis came back this year at a lower weight. I think that the plan was and is that he could be more than a blocking tight end.
Yes, he decided to come back as a high hurdler.
