Cordy Glenn has two injured feet (Returning to practice 12/6)

He's overrated and PFF has had very few elite grades on his games over the last few years even with healthy.

 

Sure we can do worse and probably will but you don't pay a LT elite money when he's not.

So your only argument is running to PFF grades?

 

Your talent evaluation is worse than your avatar

1st Mario, then Marcel, now Cordy. Once these guys sign their huge contract it's all worthless from there. The next guy to get a 100M deal better be a QB and no other position.

Cordy got NO WHERE NEAR 100 million...

This is why you don't pay anyone!!!

Haha, Whaley is an idiot.

I personally have nothing against Glenn and at least he doesn't have off the field issues like Dareus, but this was yet another horrible deal by Whaley and we need to move on from Glenn after this year.

There is so much wrong in this post. LTs have some of the longest shelf life of NFL players. Glenn is an all pro type player.

 

The funniest thing about people complaining about guys like Glenn and Dareus is they would be the first ones crying if we let them walk for nothing. Ralph is cheap!!!

I read through this to get an update on his injury. I had not idea the insanity was going off the rails like this.

 

What a nice look at Cordy Glenn's contract in isolation that was but you better take a bigger look at what Beane is doing to our cap before you start adding more dead money by cutting our LT.

people complaining about his contract should take a look at what happens when you don't pay your LT (see Duane Brown, Houston Texans) Edited by YoloinOhio

Need him to get healthy so we can move Dawkins over to the right side so mills can stay off the field. Will they trust Henderson enough to play him on the left side and have Dawkins play RT, or will he just get waived or be the swing tackle.

No not just PFF.

 

I just don't see where he's been an elite LT during his time here. Solid, average...sure. A few dominant games per season, yes.

 

For me in the end though Glenn is a lot like Wood, and that's a mostly average player throughout the season who is really bad when he struggles and really good on those games he's locked in. Also the too many injuries in recent years to be counted on long term.

So just like that, you want him cut from the team?

 

Alright then, who do you replace him with? You must have an idea as to who you want to be our Left Tackle.

 

Give us some names, or are you just saying all of this because you hate the contract he has and is now hurt?

I think the simple truth is to keep players in Buffalo you have to overpay. Sucks but the truth of the modern day NFL.

That's the truth of the franchise's current state. It's not true in Green Bay or Pittsburgh. If they start winning, players will come. Hey: We got Anquan Boldin didn't we?

 

But in any era, not just the "modern era," players would rather be in Miami than Buffalo. You'll never get over that.

Nah...he was a 27-year old LT that was about to hit the open market. He was going to get $12M+ AAV one way or another, so that's what they gave him.

 

As for whether or not it was a smart deal, I'll say this: when you find a LT that can play the position to the point where you barely notice him, that's a guy that you pay money to keep. The money they paid him was a bit of a projection for the OT position, but it's certainly good market value for what he brings. He's tied for the 6th-highest paid LT in the league based on AAV.

I say sit both him and Dareus (if he is in fact hurt) the next two games, get these guys healed up through the bye, Atl is going to be tough and is a non conference game as it is so why play someone whos hurt? I think we can beat Cincy without these two so let them heal up

+ 1

 

I think, like Dareus, there the "out" situation isn't really feasible until after the 2018 season.

 

i don't understand the "out" meaning specifics, however that's what the contract people say.

until we start winning, that is. Winning cures all. That, and our fan base. Players love to play in front of rabid fans. Not many other teams offer what our fans have (GB, PIT, CLE,)

I bet he plays less than 75% of the games this year.

 

I set over/under at 9.

 

Question is, if he still has these issues come next spring what do you do?

 

I'd sit him all year if there is any chance of these issues coming back next season. Unless you really need him due to another injury this year. Or amputate both legs and turn him into a robot :)
