We offered 30 first round picks and 10 3rd rounders??????!!!!

If the new reports are true, it seems they offered the most in terms of players/picks(6th overall was worth more than the whole saints draft). Just when Tepper had to reach for his piggy bank, he didnt......Im shocked. Craziest off-season evar

We offered the most but Watson wasn't interested. That's both sad and hilarious.

Shows how much Tepper doesn't know what he is doing.

He didn't care where he went, he wanted that fully guaranteed contract and no one was willing to give it except the Browns. 

Which i still don't understand.  If we considered him a franchise QB, I don't understand why we wouldn't fully guarantee those years.  But thats above my pay grade.

I’m actually proud tepper had that “draw a line in the sand” moment, the demands are as if we were trading for prime Tom Brady or Rodgers without the red flags 

Watson for how talented he is still poses red flags on and off the field, shout-out to the browns for making sure he didn’t land in the nfc south

I was thinking about this while working out actually. It's probably bc if it turns out that Watson was just okay, and never returns to form... you have to eat that contract and the loss of the draft picks over a 4 year period. It turns your franchise into absolute paria. 

At least if he sucked, you could swallow the picks and move on... but if you had to pay him while he sucked (See Darnold) thats franchise destroying.

    • I’m going with Nick Emmanwori as the pick right now. Charlie Campbell has him ranked 5th on his post combine big board and another safety is needed.
    • That is ridiculous on several levels. First of all you have to spend 90% of your cap space every year so the idea you can just not spend it every year is against the CBA. Secondly your job is to assemble the best team you can for the fans players and team. Not to save money for the owner.  Third many players who are considered great underperform while others like Luvu and Jackson have overperformed. What about a  great player like Derek Brown who was injured and missed all of last year. Was he a waste of money?? Sure pay DK a fools ransom and hope he stays healthy. He didn't even get 1000 yards last year which averages out to 60 yards a game or play all 16 games.  And lets be real, Jones and Watson aren't  great but they aren't being paid that much either. Real glad you aren't the GM.
    • Not necessarily, they very well could just be waiting on the players who will get cut in the coming weeks/months as cap casualties and wanting to have the cap room to be able to offer more than other teams (likely our best shot at finding immediate pass rushing help for next year at this point). Also wouldn't be the end of the world to try and roll some cap into next offseason to have more space to go after bigger FA's. That's a better move than signing guys who really won't help much more than whoever else we can get on minimum or rookie deals.
