Andy Dalton Re-signed

Something to be said about culture as well. The offense started moving in the right direction as the year went on. If Bryce digresses this year, we don't have enough talent around (insert your backup qb choice here) to matter anyway. Seems to me Dalton has helped Bryce, and has helped the offense. I think the coaching staff is saying having a positive, experienced guy (on the cheap) that knows the offense and has helped Bryce through his struggles was more important than bringing in competition.

Dumb move. He isn't really playable anymore, he fell apart after 1 game this season. If it's for more than vet minimum it's a waste of cap and roster space. Just pay him to coach and free up a roster spot.

The start to another disappointing offseason is underway in Pantherland again.

 

 

I feel close to this as well. That's starter safety moneyz and guess who needs two of them along with 15 other spots....

But this doesn't hurt the high I have after a new strength coach.

Any backup vet QB is going to cost around what Dalton got if not more. All NFL teams have to pay “starting safety” money for a backup unless you roll the dice on an unproven rookie. If we didn’t give Dalton “starting safety money” we would’ve given it to someone else. It’s just the reality of the position

I mean, the QB position is finally heading in the right direction.  not the time to stir the pot.  Nope, skeptics, you are not getting any rookie who would be better as a backup than Andy. Not many teams win with QB2.

I still say if a Rourke, Will Howard, Gabriel, or McCord falls into day 3, you take him.

    • Nailed it! Chiefs got #10 overall (and selected Mahomes) and sent the Bills #27, #91, and a 2018 first-rounder (ended up being #18) to pick the QB that has kept them out of the Super Bowl. 💀 Tbf to the Bills tho, they turned those picks into Tre'Davious White, Dion Dawkins, Tremaine Edmunds, and Siran Neal. Three out of four hits ain't bad at all, but that one for one for KC... ooh wee mayne.
    • Yep. Happens to a lot of talented kids. I just think a lot of people don't understand that just because this kid is super talented doesn't mean he's going to make it to the pros. Most of them won't. Some will get injured. Some will run into trouble off the court/field. Some won't put in the work. The catering greatly increases the odds of the latter two. Then most will simply just not be good enough to make it to the pros. Either way, it all adds up to a long shot and the kids need to have solid plan Bs. A few years back my HS had the #1 RB recruit on the nation. He originally committed to UGA but flipped to Bama and was getting decent playing time as a true freshman before obliterating his ankle. He was never the same again after that. Never made it to the pros. Not sure what happened to him but evidently he wasn't the brightest bulb and was basically just getting passed through school to stay academically eligible. I don't think he was a bad kid, never really heard anything like that. He just wasn't all that bright and all the eggs were in the football basket.
