POST #11 Dick84 wrote:Just showing one example. I think Fowler’s been fine, but I’m not sure what “fine” gets in free agency.The last 3/4 OLB I know about who came up for a starters 2nd contract was Za'Darius Smith. He signed last off-season for 16.5 M a year. Naturally since 2nd contracts go up every year it would be reasonable to expect anyone signing this coming year would get more. Smith's best year before this was 2018, and so his deal was based on 2018...when he got 8.5 sacks. He only started 8 games, though he saw the field in the other games. In 2018 he played 690 defensive snaps in 16 games. So far in 12 games this year, Fowler has played 666 defensive snaps. This year so far Smith has 10 sacks. ... by Neil039 4 years 4 months ago Total posts: 2664 Joined: Feb 02 2016 LA Coliseum Superstar Re: How Much Better Than Obo is Fowler Jr?

POST #19 To expand on SnackDaddy's smart & accurate take on Free Agency...a little history: Trumaine Johnson was "fine" with us.He got a monster contract from the NY Jets.Los Ramos got a nice Compensatory Pick for TruJo.....and today, the NY Jets rue the day they signed that "fine" player, Trumaine Johnson to the point where they benched him earlier this season! Point being "fine" is not "elite".....and therefore not worth "elite" money!TruJo was fine, but not elite. Yet he got elite money.Fowler is fine, but not elite. Yet Fowler will get elite money in 2020 from some team with an anemic pass rush.As always, JMO. by Hacksaw 4 years 4 months ago Total posts: 24523 Joined: Apr 15 2015 AT THE BEACH Moderator How Much Better Than Obo is Fowler Jr?

POST #17 dieterbrock liked this post As ralphdieterbrock accurately opines "reality" (IE. Salary Cap reality) will dictate that neither Fowler nor Brockers are re-signed by Los Ramos for 2020. BUT....for Fowler's ER spot, we still have the services on one Clay Mathews, who lest we forget, prior to having his jaw broken in Seattle, was more productive than the more expensive Fowler in the SACKS department. Mathews, whose NFL uncle and dad played nearly into their 40's, seems to still have some ample gas in the tank....and he is also under contract with the Rams for 2020 ......so Clay Mathews, Obo, Ebukam, and Natrez Patrick are under contract for 2020....looks like some starting talent there, plus some depth .....and besides the OLB/ER youthful PS yutes of Jachai Polite & Landis Durham, we also have Justin Lawler and Josh Carraway coming back off IR for 2020..........so our OLB/ER cupboard is hardly bare just because we have to jettison one Dante Fowler due to sound cost-management. Moreover we will probably net a nice 3rd Round Compensatory Pick for Les Snead to play with in the 2021 NFL Draft eh!!! 1 by snackdaddy 4 years 4 months ago Total posts: 9661 Joined: May 30 2015 Merced California Hall of Fame How Much Better Than Obo is Fowler Jr?

I think Fowler’s been fine, but I’m not sure what “fine” gets in free agency.Fine probably gets more than we can afford. Quarterbacks, edge rushers and corners get paid in this league. And they don't have to be elite to get a 5 year 50 mil or better contract. 2 by CanuckRightWinger 4 years 4 months ago Total posts: 2777 Joined: Jan 13 2016 VANCOUVER, BC Superstar How Much Better Than Obo is Fowler Jr?
