Hardy wants to get paid.

[SevyDamus]

Why will Williams be gone he literally cost nothing & if Godfrey has above average year I firmly expect him to restructure. Everyone else I say peace!

The Kraken plus Clowney would give the Raiders a pretty solid pair of bookend DE's. damn.

In the toxic Raiders environment, Hardy would self destruct. I think he would be a disaster there.

Agreed. Some guys thrive in a small town environment, but with big money and big vices at every turn, the pitfalls would be endless for the Kraken. Probably end up in the pokey which would give a whole new meaning to release.....

Too bad Al Davis isn't alive for this deal!  He loves the "Kraken Type"!  Maybe could have gotten a pick or two... I agree, if he is tweeting this type of thing, he is going to want to be paid what CJ is paid and that can't happen.. I dont' think Gettleman would have ever paid CJ what he got. Not saying CJ isn't worth his contract, but I just don't think Gman would have paid it.. I think Alexander can handle it now that we have those two hog mollies in the middle.. Maybe get a good right guard or tackle..

if Kraken wants a extremely huge contract let him walk or trade him. Frank Alexander would do fine.

[Argus Plexus]

I have serious fuging love for Greg Hardy, but please God no more CJ contracts. That was full retard. 

 

Please not that again  :unsure:

You might have seen this, but found it on youtube..Kraken dunking basketball on 10 foot 3 inch rim.. pretty impressive!

Yea but this personal attack statement is coming from someone that labelled me a troll. What a double standard.

Personal attacks are not allowed in this forum even if thats how you see it.

[Davidson Deac II]

so throwing for 3800 yards and 22 TDs is considered a game manager? Flacco attempted 33 passes for over 280 yards and 3 passing TDs in the super bowl. that sounds more then a game manager.

 

Sounds like Jake Delhomme numbers, at least from his early years with the team.  :)

If Hardy wants to be in the position the Raiders are in tonight (24-0, 2nd quarter) go ahead. Have fun.

Raiders are locked to be the no.1 in the Draft already. Teddy Bridgewater, come one down!

Woodson gotta regret going there. Should've came here.

[Ivan The Awesome]

Good DEs are something you can actually trade away and get something for....

We already failed that once, Hardy better not just walk....

I've been saying this for a while. Trade him now that his stock is high. Get draft picks or a competent player. O line, WR, whatever makes this team better..

To where? And what would be his value? A 3rd?

I don't think Hardy would draw much interest. Though DE is a position where you can get something in return, it's also a position where team could get in the draft and groom.

Alexander might make this easy.

Ideally we could move him for a pick or two.

 

 

Was just thinking the same thing.

 

In the next few years we have to pay Cam and Luke.

 

I like the Kraken and all, but he is no Luke.

 

I like this conversation.

Can you imagine a day in Panther daily business when we consider the Cap implications versus letting a player walk?

Let's hand DWill, Stew, Beason etc massive contracts because they're good guys we drafted and deserve it. Damn the fact they play positions that don't warrant their Cap Space.

I mean who are we, the frickin' New England Patriots?

See Richard Seymour to the Raiders in his contract year for a Raider #1 Draft pick. The Raiders were forced to sign Seymour long term to a massive contract to retain any value from that trade.

Meanwhile the Pats stockpile another #1 pick.

I gotta stop thinking about this as I'm getting giddy at the possibility our FO could have a clue.

 

 

This is a scenerio I could actually see Gettledog doing this season. Trading Hardy for a good vet guard before we have to pay him.

 

I'd prefer long term and draft picks.

 

If you think Gettleman isn't weighing paying Cam a record breaking contract against keeping a dominating defense in place then you aren't thinking clearly.

 

Trying to think the last time a potential Franchise QB was allowed to walk at the end of his rookie contract. I believe we're locked in to Cam through 2020.
