Gregg Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 I can't wait to see the next contact for Burrow and Herbert. The Allen contract is looking better and better as these deals get done. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I am excited to see some new blood (or new old blood if it is McD) in how we call our defense and attack offenses. McD already showed he could get more out of the same defense than Frazier when he previously had to strip Frazier of play calling duties in season and the defense immediately improved. I actually really like the idea of McD calling the plays as long as it doesn't create issues in his overall HC duties and management of games.

If the talk that Higgins is looking for WR1 money true the Bengals could be in cap trouble sooner than later. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCal Deek Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 I still can’t help but wonder what Adams is thinking having left Green Bay to go play with Carr, his college roommate, in Vegas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_Matter_What Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 18 minutes ago, Virgil said: I just read 100 mil guaranteed, with 60 being given to him at signing. This has to set the bar for any other QB contract, including Jones and Geno. I would argue they both performed better with less surrounding talent than Carr. I'd be shocked if this meant anything for Geno. Carr is established middle of the road vet. Geno had one good season. I think best he can hope for is something like 60/2 with 35M guaranteed. My guess is that he doesn't even get that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick_Cheney Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 One of the most insufferable players in the league. Saints are paying way too much for this guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave mcbride Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 1 hour ago, Alphadawg7 said: I can answer that: No Frazier. Since joining the Bills, Hughes has played 10 seasons, 4 before Frazier, then 5 with Frazier, then 1 this past year in Houston. In the 5 seasons not with Frazier Hughes averaged 8 sacks a season (including 3 with 9 or more). In 5 seasons with Frazier, he averaged 4 sacks a season, only getting over 5 once (7 in 2018). ... yet he had seven sacks in seven postseason games under Frazier.

thenorthremembers Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 3 hours ago, Alphadawg7 said: They have also lost players along the way. They already had to restructure Davis and Hill and are going to have to cut, extend, or restructure these contracts at least...as well, and that is just to get under the cap. DE Jordan $25.7M CB Lattimore $22.4M LG Peat $18.3M RB Kamara $16M QB Winston $15.6M Then you still have Michael Thomas at $13.3M, and because of his cap hit is expected by everyone to be released post June 1st. Teams can use the Post June 1st designation twice ahead of June 1st, so the expectation is that the team will either use it for Peat or Winston. They probably won't restructure Davis as it will result in a massive dead money cap hit shortly down the road, so their only option there is an extension. Lattimore will most likely be restructured, and probably Kamara too. Both will bring some issues later, but they don't really have a choice because those issues are a little further down the road than the dead money issue Jordan restructure would cause. So yeah, the Saints are going to find a way to get Carr, but it still hurts the team now and in the future and the Saints will not have the cap room to further improve the team around Carr. The Saints are not the team that I would want our GM to pattern his cap strategy after. They were way over the cap before paying Carr, now they got do all this just to get under the cap, then do more still to sign Carr. And their cap situation isn't getting better anytime soon either, they will not be able to build the team up around Carr and will likely remain a middling team, which IMO is about the worst situation to be in. I would rather tear it down and rebuild than be stuck as a middling team, getting middle to lower round draft picks, and no cap space to build outside the draft either. Dont the Saints have to pay Michael Thomas $31 million if he is still on the roster by March 17th? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They refuse to blow it all up and evidently want to go for the Division Title in a very weak group. They are all in with Derek Carr for the next 2 years. After that Carr will be in charge of his future with the NTC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure, everything I saw was that he was going to be one of their two designated post June 1st cuts. Maybe if they designate him for post June 1st it avoids what they owe him if he is on the roster still on March 17th. Not sure how that affects it or not.

Rodgers will be 50 million and draft picks which will screw the Jets. Rodgers has a couple years left, if that.

Steptide Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Glad he went to the saints and not the jets. Jets would be pretty decent with him, and while it'd make for some entertaining bills/jets games, I wanna see the bills dominate the afc east for at least a few more years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 7 minutes ago, ProcessTruster said: Pray Rodgers doesn't go to the Jets I am starting to think that Lamar going to the Jets is more likely than Rodgers. Rodgers is not going to want the state of NY taking 10% of his $$$. I still see LV as the most likely destination. If the Ravens put the nonexclusive Tag on Lamar, I think the Jets will be all over that. They will gladly give up the 2 picks, along with the contract to get him. It would be the best skill group Lamar has had as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
