Rodgers, Russell, Watson, Stafford.

We've had our eyes on each one of these.  Shake your head if you want, but that's my feeling.

Will we get one?  Who knows, but we almost got one of them...heavy interest in another, and two more likely coming on the market next offseason.

Stafford said he would turn down trade here so I would say if he doesn’t want to be here, why would any of the others?

Why are you asking questions we can't answer?  Also did Stafford have a trade clause in his contract?

I'm just saying that we are keeping our options open, no idea what will happen, but so far, we have been in the chase for two top tier QB's...I don't think that we are done yet.

Did u not see the report that came out Stafford turned down Panthers. Sorry didn’t mean for other to be a question, I meant the other qbs won’t come here to play.

Stafford didn't want to come here because we didn't look like a contender, and LA did. That's not an inaccurate assessment.

As for next offseason, if we have a terrible year, we'll be no more appealing to an aging veteran franchise QB than we were this offseason, and if we have a great year, we still won't be appealing because it'll probably be because Sam did pretty good, and we won't be seen as having an opening at the QB spot.

We need to save it for contract extensions

Some cap wiz needs to confirm but there is only so much we can rollover based on a crap ton of things. I *think* we have to 80% and in a certain 4 year time period and also the rest of the nfl needs to use a certain amount.

And maybe some other stuff, I’m not sure of the specifics (it gets really messy) but I agree we need to save as much as possible to sign Moore and Burns who will not be cheap.

That was also before this season.  If we go out and kick some ass this year, or at least show a lot of improvement on offense, why wouldn't one of them want to come here?

I've seen some numbers posted here I don't believe are correct.

Cutting more leaves with 625k dead cap this year and next.  Total of 1.25 mill in dead cap.

Total cap savings for the 2 years are 3.5 million.  Easy decision to make for WR4, who Shi make push down to WR5.

So add 2.5 mill in cap space to next years total.

And add 6 mill in dead cap next year when we cut Shaq.  And add 12 mill in cap savings at the same time. 

Those 2 moves alone give us 14.5 mill more cap space for 2022.

 

future's so bright...

I got to think we sign a stud guard/center and release Elflein as well.

If we do "go out and kick some ass this year", that would pretty much mean Darnold had a great year. Why would they want to come here? Why would we want them?

      We looked like a competent NFL team PIE thread

      By Prowler2k18 · Posted

      We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
