Teams don’t have cap space right now to give him the deal he wants. I think Taylor just wants to get out of there. Get in the right situation and deal with the contract later.

You are very observant..........it's almost as if this scenario has transpired this offseason with Saquon Barkley already and now has been unfolding with Taylor for months and you've considered the possibilities before. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 For those stating to sign him, that’s not happening. We don’t have the $, we’re a passing team, think we have an efficient staff to maybe make a step forward in the running game, etc.. Give away a draft pick or more, pay him $10 mil, and he’s coming off an injury. Yeah, no. Hes a special player and those with weak QB’s and cash would be logical. If you look at NFL cap space balanced with teams who don’t have star RB’s and help to their QB, I can see Carolina pulling the trigger, or maybe even Jax as they have space and a solid QB. Jax may want to go on a run, but the Colts would have to trade in division. It brings me back to Car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sincerely find it amusing that I get to live so rent free in your head that I am the first thing you think about in each of these topics. I did mean it when I said I think you need a ghost writer though...most of these are pretty weak, so I am hoping you start to better on these desperate troll jobs so they are at least more entertaining Hope you keep these coming, its been a bit since I had stalker like this, brings back nostalgia of the good ole days around here and makes this board more interesting for me again 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a guy like AR needs to be the guy and call the shots. Josh had next to zero support as a rookie. He had to be the guy and learn on the go. I’m not sure he ascends to be the guy he is today if he was playing Mac Jones ball for his first 2 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenorthremembers Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 (edited) Not sure why the Colts wont pay him, he is only 23, they have a QB on a rookie deal, and they have the money. That said, Arizona should be all over this. They have the money, the draft picks and the needs. If the Colts are smart they will go ahead and trade him, outside of the AFC.

LOVEMESOMEBILLS Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 1 hour ago, Buffalo_Stampede said: My first thought. They can give him 3 year deal. Tua and Waddle big cap hits won’t kick in for a few years. They could fit him. Tua's cap hit goes up $13.5 million next year, Hill's goes up $18+ million & Chubb's goes up $19+ million. That's about $51 million in increases for just 3 guys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just extend them and the cap will lower. Can do that for awhile. Bills will extend Josh in the next couple years. Dolphins as well hope Tua can stay healthy and they’ll extend him lowering the cap hit. They probably have 2 more years after this one before his cap will really hurt them. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are going to roll with him, I would ask myself if anyone in the top ten of this years draft is going to be more impactful than having Jonathan Taylor in the prime of his career. If you can walk away with both Jonathan Taylor and Marvin Harrison Jr. for Kyler Murray its worth thinking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoSaint Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 2 hours ago, BillsShredder83 said: Curious if this could happen.... NOT even talking about here, but was a spit-balling take from Cover2. Say no teams were willing to trade and give a new contract, is it possible a team could offer to put in writing that they would NOT franchise tag him... just as the next best incentive for him as opposed to a new contract. Just, we want your services for the year, we cant afford you, but to keep you happy/motivated, you'll get a chance to chase $$ as an Unrestricted next year? Would just be interesting to see that precedent set, because anytime we see this situation most of the top dawg teams are immediately ruled out because of cap concerns. Basically, can a team even offer a 'no franchise tag' clause? Has that happened before? yea there could be a no tag clause 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That teams needs help and a pressure valve release for the rookie QB. Im sure they want some kind of win this year so they are at least competitive and it is a cross conference trade. Indy would want that more than the Fish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
