FA1

We're able to trade QB Martinez to Tucker for their 2+3+4+5 picks, which feels pretty shameful for the 2nd best QB in the game in his 6th year. But hey, good for the challenge I guess. Also good for the challenge... this 50% cap reduction foolishness we've set ourselves onto. We did what we had to but this feels like it's going to be difficult. We'll see as it goes, but we really can't afford to do much of anything. Some of the trimming we're doing now is going to hurt us this year and next with lost cap room as well. I guess it will get marginally easier when we've got some of that space in the future.

We bring in QB Caiden Logan (31/39) in this period to compete with holdover backup QB Talley. Neither look like solutions but they sign cheap.

Draft

We probably should just trade down or out for cap reasons (awesome), but we're dumb and really like a CB that's staring at us at 1.4. We ultimately take a weird trade for a 2+3+4+1st next year from Augusta. I'm sure we left some meat on the bone for some kind of all out trade against the AI's bad pick value logic, but we're just DOING THINGS. And the cap reduction has me shook.

2.3 LB Devan Henry
2.5 DT Jace Wolcott
2.7 FS Ted Matthews

Our first pick of this career is a DE-weight LB with big potential. We're gonna be thin at LB this year, and everywhere soon enough, so I like this one. DT Wolcott should be able to help immediately, and FS Matthews is a 211 lb guy who can hopefully shed some weight for a CB move.

We fill out with a bunch of other picks, including a hopefully complete stud punter (who will get plenty of work). We'll see how they hit the roster and what our team looks like when he get through to camp. Probably a bit more detail when we look at position groups then.

Code:

Pick #35 	 Hanalei 	 OLB	Devan Henry
Pick #37 	 Hanalei 	 DT	Jace Wolcott
Pick #39 	 Hanalei 	 S	Ted Matthews
Pick #66 	 Hanalei 	 P	Edwin Buchanan
Pick #68 	 Hanalei 	 TE	Michael McWilliams
Pick #70 	 Hanalei 	 DE	Edward Rodgers
Pick #99 	 Hanalei 	 FB	Nathan Glenn
Pick #101 	 Hanalei 	 RB	Rufus Curtis
Pick #103 	 Hanalei 	 OLB	Heath Ferguson
Pick #132 	 Hanalei 	 T	George Ellison
Pick #134 	 Hanalei 	 QB	Francisco Bowles
Pick #165 	 Hanalei 	 CB	Shane Owens
Pick #196 	 Hanalei 	 S	Louis Murray
