Do we cut Godfrey and let him test the market?

[LinvilleGorge]

Godfrey was starting before he got hurt early in the season. We don't know how good he would have been on the defense last year.

All we know is that there was a strong correlation between Godfrey going on IR and the defense improving quite a bit.

I went through 2 stages of thinking Godfrey was a decent starter and he kept proving me wrong.

[davos]

And I don't think it's Godfrey our staff wants. A young safety leader behind Keek is who I think they want badly. Bt I could be wrong.

Buchanan is a possibility in the draft. Same with Ladler and a few others.

Gettlemagic

Gettlemagic is more like baf juju to me. He is dead to me.

give him a chance (at half the money) behind our new front 7

[Mr. Scot]

Bringing in Harper is stupid. He'll be alienated in the locker room.

 

Technically the same could have been said about Mitchell last season.

 

Granted, Harper has a longer history.

 

[Cpt slay a ho]

godfreys better then mikel i'll take that but most are correct i would have cut or restructured him to keep a guy like mitchell or captain, hell even ginn

[Montsta]

It's possible that although unspectacular, the coaching staff believes that Godfrey would be a good technical fit behind our new front seven. At one point the guy was a decent ball hawk, maybe that'll resurface.

How would that alienate a locker room? Bc 89 doesn't like him?

Did Mike Mitchell alienate things for taking a cheap shot on Cam? No, he became a tone setter for our D. We needed that nasty edge.

Bottom line is you can sign a vet to a 1 yr deal......and get better play than Godfrey offers. Plus Godfrey's deal is dumb.

Did we get worse last year when Godfrey went down? If the answer is no.....wait point does he serve

Ball hawk? When?

He can occasionally flash bomb someone when he isn't missing tackles. That is about it.

[CPcavedweller]

Yeah, this baffles me. I thought he'd be cut for sure, but he wasn't even asked to restructure as far as we know. Odd.

If he gets cut then we still owe him money so there is no "testing the market". If he gets cut he's gone.

[carpanfan96]

He won't be cut because of Mitchell not coming back. Best case scenario is he takes a pay cut or restructures.

[CRA]

Cut Godfrey.

Have RR call Peanut. He will give us that vet leadership in the secondary and lead the scrubs.
