GreggTX Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 There will be a ndfull of TE's in FA that would be significant upgrades over O'Leary and Thomas. If Graham shakes loose he could be our best receiver at any position. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Wagon Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 He got paid $700k by the Browns last year. I wouldn't be shocked if he was getting offers in the $2-3 mil for a year range and he probably weighed the cost-benefit analysis of $700k for staying home vs $2-3 mil for playing came out ahead for him.

None of us know his end game. There's a big difference between making $700k to spend time with your family or $~2 mil to go through a football season. Guys have walked away from much more money at younger ages recently. I know nothing personally about Barnidge, but if he's just a quiet guy from Kentucky ~$ 6 mil in after tax career earnings can go A LONG way.

buffaloboyinATL Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 So basically he made $700K to stay home versus $900K to play. I have to assume there would have been some incentives in that minimum contract that he could have hit as well. It will be interesting to see what kind of offers he gets a year removed from being in "playing shape". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
