How much is to much for Micheal Floyd?

If they are actually shopping him or willing to get rid of him for a mid rounder, this is actually a very solid idea, and maybe even a possibility. Would be a best case scenario to replace KB, in my opinion. Not that he'd be as good as him or a "solid #1" but he would at least be a proven playmaker for us and would be better than anyone we have now. I wouldn't give up any more than a 3rd though, and I'm not sure that'd do it for them.

Michael Floyd's salary this year is $1.75 million with a cap hit of $3.1 million.

Next year his salary and cap hit blow up to $7.32 million.  For a guy who has averaged 800 yards a season and has caught 13 total TD passes in 3 years.

So... no.

If I  understand it right, they'd have to eat the bonus money on his contract.  He wouldn't be owed any guaranteed money from us.

Still, I would have to think they'd want more than we'd want to give up for him.  He's still pretty cheap this season and then they could just cut him next year.

It's his fifth-year rookie option, all-base and fully guaranteed, the new team would be responsible for the whole thing. Arizona seems to already be having buyer's remorse for exercising the option.

      Dave Tepper gives Canales and Dan Morgan vote of confidence

      By mav1234 · Posted

      There's some big assumptions in here - first, I think Canales HAS helped Bryce a poo ton. To pretend he hasn't is asinine. Has he fixed him?  I mean, the dude looks like he could perhaps be a backup or low-end starter now, whereas he looked like he didn't belong in the NFL a year ago. You're talking about a coach that brought one of the worst NFL QBs of all time to a point where he may actually be a low-end starter. That IS impressive. Second, the bolded. Come on - given the offense, the dude is far from "trending towards bust." He definitely needs work but he's shown an impressive ability to get open. He's contributing to an anemic offense. The dude is our leading receiver (though he'll be #2 in yardage by end of season by a little, as Thielen does better per game).  As to his coaching, he had this team competing and believing against 3 of the better teams in the NFL, despite the lack of talent, and despite our QB situation.  Yes, things fell apart vs DAL, and he was outcoached. But that will happen with young coaches IMO.  I don't think it indicates he cant' be better. The idea of "pulling off the bandage" is ridiculous. Who would want to coach here if we fired this guy after one season?

      Has this game changed feelings about Young?

      Whatever they are in totality the cowboys are beat up all to hell on both sides of the ball and even that was too much for lil Bryce to overcome.  Bryce defenders have to hype up every other team and trash every other part of the panthers just because of the situation they’ve put themselves in.

      BREAKING: Panthers Announce Four Moves Including LB Trevin Wallace To IR

      By SCO96 · Posted

      JB had a first round grade in the eyes of a lot scouts based on HIS TALENT LEVEL. If not for the injury he would have gone higher in the draft, possibly between the middle and the end of round 1. To get him just before the 50th pick is a steal. He'd be on a 4 year deal. You can't even renegotiate until the end of the season 3. You're basically paying him nothing for 3 seasons. I don't buy into all back are interchangeable. No they're not. You have average backs, good backs, then your great-exceptional backs. The latter category doesn't grow on trees. If a back is special it pays to keep them. The key is knowing the difference between the first two categories and the third one.
