I guess that joke wasn't clear enough. (or funny enough?)

My fault. Sarcasm isn't always easy to detect when you can't hear someone's voice.

He's likely gone, and so is Star in all reality

About the dumbest comment I've heard in awhile.

Hilton has always seemed really inconsistent to me.

Hilton is a monster player I would love to get him.  Led the league in receiving yrds when Luck was around.  The cost would probably be high though.

He actually may be right.

We will tag one. Norwell is my guess.

Gettlemagic strikes again. Now he can sign our best lineman because of the outrageous Kalil contract he gave out

Maybe or maybe not.

The first year cap hit of a long term deal is usually a lot cheaper than a tag number.  If you are looking to add multiple free agents a long term deal would leave more available for this year.

Does Hurney spend big time to try and win now to save his and RR job.  With new ownership coming in I would view this year as a one year audition.

or

Does the ownership go cheap?  No reason to have large cash spending before sale.  Singing bonuses are often paid upfront.

There is no maybe. 90% chance Norwell gets a deal. 10% chance we tag him. Anything else is just absurd.

I don’t see the point in being cheap right now. We are at a point where we have repeatedly shown how far Cam can go with a limited supporting cast. Why not bite the bullet and get him the weapons he needs to win the SB? What’s the point in being cheap with the cap if you aren’t winning and wasting your window of success. The point of the game is to win not to be cheap.

Care to elaborate or are you just here to be nasty?

Not sure we'll be able to tag either one.

Wow, Gettleman put us into cap hell. Can’t even re-sign our own players.

That's one way to look at it.  Another is that he got us so many good players we can't afford to keep them all.
