Russell Wilson

[t96]

Getting out ahead of it early because you know this will come up eventually. He'll be cut by the Broncos this offseason and Canales coached him directly for 4 years (and was WRs coach before that since before Wilson got drafted), so there are significant ties to him. Dalton is under contract but can easily be cut.

 

Would you consider signing Russ? Yay or nay?

 

Personally not a fan but I could see us considering him because of Canales' ties to him. Would probably come cheap and could actually push Bryce more than Dalton at this point. But I wouldn't really want him in the locker room and his play on the field with the Broncos has been uninspiring to say the least.

Russ is a west coast snob now.  He's too good for east coast teams, especially piss ant markets like Charlotte.  He'll retire first.

I actually read that Russ would likely be had relatively cheap compared to most FA QB's because he would have so much guaranteed by Denver anyway....but I still don't know if he moves the needle much more than what we have

Nah let Bryce either prove he can be the guy or be the tank commander.

Yeah, what a great idea. After cratering our draft capital on a trade up to botch drafting a QB, let's crater our cap space on an idiotic signing of a past his prime vet living off of name recognition and past performance. 

Wait... this seems pretty damn on brand for Tepper's football organization. Now I'm kinda worried.

This is the answer for every splash free agent thread.

The off-season just begun.

 

 

Brace yourselves the hot takes will only get worse.

Yep. Let it happen naturally. Either Bryce develops or leads up to a top pick. 

[Steelo]

Like a CHEAP FA pickup?.... yeah I don't see the downside really..

I can’t believe no one has mentioned

 

’yea if he’ll do vet minimum’

Russ won't be cratering anyone's cap space or getting any term on his next deal, lol.

He still threw for 3000 yards and 26 TDs. Someone is gonna pay him way more than they should.
