Process Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Really like the signing. If hes really been on the radar for a while it makes no sense why we waited so long and are giving him the absolute minimum amount of time to be with the tram before the playoffs. He could have been signed weeks ago and been fully up to speed, and would have actually been useful with Brown out. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How could they cut him if he was injured though? Or does that restriction not apply when a vet player's salary is guaranteed anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if we brought him in two weeks ago it would have made a huge difference. How much is he going to be able to contribute when he's joining the team the week of the playoff game and hasn't played football in 6 weeks.

He could have been signed weeks ago and been fully up to speed, and would have actually been useful with Brown out. It makes absolute sense from the players side - understand his contract! He was on a guaranteed contract about the same money as Brown from Houston - so getting cut meant he kept getting the same paycheck - for doing nothing. His contract had offsets - so if he signed and played someplace unless it was for more money than his Houston contract - his pay would not change the difference is how much Houston had to pay. He was able to double dip and get paid from multiple teams or he might have signed earlier. The players are also only paid for the regular seasons- so it makes total sense that the player would want to wait as long as possible to sign with a team because in the playoffs it is about bonus money (winners share versus losers share) - allowing him to maximize his pay and still get on a talented team with a SuperBowl run. Based on what McD said - I would assume Beane has been in contact and they were on the same page waiting until the season was over to sign up.

Mr. WEO Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 1 hour ago, HappyDays said: Again... context. Stills could have caught every TD Davis has this year except for the incredible catch in the Dolphins game. The Texans decided to see what their younger receivers could do. He was always going to re-sign with a playoff team. Stills is a veteran with better separation skills than Davis. I would absolutely trust him in the playoffs over the 4th round rookie. Stop. He's caught 1 TD all year (Watson has thrown 30). He has 5 TDs in his last 23 games. 1 hour ago, Scott7975 said: I think that was more a money decision during a period that Stills was injured. Uh, he was on pace for 1029 yards actually. Stills was never a meaningful target for Watson this year. Brown has 48.3 YPG this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
