Austin Lane

It's.

If you would have said that when he was out of college, I may have agreed with you just because in college he was kind of known as the guy that just likes to run deep.

But last year he showed he can do everything.

So if that's the case and you're the one receiver last year, then it's hard to justify making up excuses saying, well, he doesn't fit this scheme.

I think when you're a good to great wide receiver, you should be able to fit any kind of scheme, including this one with Liam Cohen.

I was waiting for Pete to bring that up.

Well, he had two guys on him.

I don't think anybody bought that.

and Monteric Brown?

He had a nice play, and I also said what I said, too, about Travis Etienne.

I think when it comes to your best players on offense or defense, you make it a habit and you make it a priority to keep them.

So I think you find a way to keep them for at least another year, whether that's the franchise tag or that's re-signing them.

What is the tag number, by the way, Pete?

Do you know offhand?

Cook, you've got McCaffrey.

I'm thinking for a franchise tag, why don't you just pay him like a three-year contract and maybe give him a little below that?

I'm not going to maybe necessarily burn my tag on him if you have to sign somebody else.

I don't even know what the contract looks like.

no i hear you and listen like yeah go ahead and draft another guy hopefully it works out because history has shown like in the nfl if you drafted running back late rounds it does work but that's a risk like that's that's saying we're not quite sure and right now with tootin like have i seen some good sure but can i sit here and say right now i'm confident with him being the starting running back for the jacksville jaguars in 2026 i can't say that i am with etn so i'm

I don't want to open up more question marks and more holes until I've seen more.
