Yes, I don't understand this "cut/trade quality players to gain minimal cap space AND get a lottery ticket (draft pick)". Again this was not a 9-7 team. This was a team who went 11-5 and 13-3, got to the Superbowl and missed. For years we were in search of a WR corp and now that we have a...

The most important thing in my post is everything. You can't cherry pick the value of a player. Value is a mosaic, a composite. You can't compare Tree to Woods. Woods is ascending, Tree was obsolete. Get better by retaining championship quality players, and releasing overpaid/under performing playe...
Uhhh, you don't trade top performing players who are signed under manageable contracts. You don't get value. You get "potential" in draft picks that yes, cost less. But, have done NOTHING at the NFL level. Further, it sends a shit message to your locker room. I think the idea is just dumb...
I think there are other areas to save money. Barron for starters. Cutting him saves us 6.33 mil while cutting or trading Woods saves us just 3.6 mil (with 3.5 in dead money). Cutting Sullivan saves us 5.25 mil. If Whitworth decides to retire that's another 11.5. Add that to the 26.263 mil in cap sp...
' Yeah see for me, no FAs. Or only budget FAs, like Roby-Coleman, and castoffs like Blythe. I am always thinking about the limited number of big contracts they can have...or soon anyway that will be a big restriction. Any FA they sign means big numbers for at least 4 years. Ummm... no. Quin just 33...
Okay. To me though they are better off putting young corners behind Peters and Talib. That's if they want to be at least approximately the same team in 2019, meaning a team with the same chances. I am thinking they probably need a rookie at FS (unless they like their current depth there more than I...
I don't think they're trading anyone, nor do they need to I think. I think they need a good draft, and the way they use 3rd rounders (they're golden in the 3rd round) they could end up with up to 3 starters out of that (first 3 picks obviously). And I think they have some redshirt youngster already...
What would you expect as far as fair compensation is concerned? If he's going to a team that already uses "off coverage"? He showed he is *excellent* in that, down the stretch. But.. I figure the best you get for him is a 4th. I would do it, though. My thinking is to then draft a CB who p...
I appreciate the general concept. I just don’t agree with this particular proposal. I dig it. I'm torn on whether I'd actually pull the trigger. My logical brain tells me I should... but I love Robert Woods and have since he was a Trojan. Great guy and really good player. I'm bigger on trading/rele...
