If they're not moving EJ, then I'm not sure what's the plan with the Banks signing. Maybe Tom moves to center, Morgan at RT, Banks at RG?

What’s up with the ‘read on Twitter’ posts with no tweets? Lol. Is that my realGM acting up or Twitter or what? I can’t see most of these posts and it’s getting annoying.

Seems like the plan is to move Banks to RG. Question then becomes does Rhyan move to C or Morgan to T and Tom to C?

It's been broke all day for me, and I believe for many others too. I saw a beat reporter bitching about it on a CBS Sports post

Hobbs was apparently really good as a rookie but tailed off. He was still graded as the best Raiders CB last season according to PFF.

If you’re using an ad blocker, I had to change a setting for the tweets to show back up again.

Nate Hobbs seems to miss at least a month every season. Some of the injuries are freak injuries (broken hand) but that scary.

I'll admit to being underwhelmed by both signings, but I'll trust Gutey until he proves me wrong.

It's worth noting, the weak spot on the Packers Pass defense last year was the MOF, not the boundary. The Packers might feel perfectly comfortable running back their boundary CBs

I can see the plan with the secondary if we're still gonna nab 1-2 corners fairly high in the draft. I don't see the plan in investing this much in a guard and slot/nickel corner while not addressing Edge or the D-line.

I think today makes it much more likely we draft a DL or Edge in R1. And the other on day two

Those are two of the deeper positions in this draft so I'm guessing that's the plan.

I think it's more about keeping the same tackles, move Jenkins to Center, Banks to LG (played 99% of his snaps there) and have Rhyan and Morgan fighting for RG spot. Morgan could also be our backup T.

I also wonder if they could move Walker to guard. Worked for the Eagles with Becton.

Yea, my post here was in the 10 minute span where we had Spoon's misreporting that Jenkins wasn't going to move.

Long term I am not even sure if we will be able to re-sign Walker.
We would have 4 players earning around 20M/year in our OL, so I see Morgan moving there in 2026.
