Thats not the point, I am saying this front office is doing everything in its power to not challenge bryce, why wouldnt they bring in someone more talented than fuging pickett? Oh yeah, to make bryce look better. I am saying there is a plan for a pathway for them to extend him and have all the reasons ready. I mean person and Kaye are making the rounds saying as much

Maybe injury related game time/starts. Not really much left in FA they could grab, if they wanted an upgrade over Pickett in the season they'd have to trade for someone

I still cannot wrap my head around this move. I mean this guy couldn't make a team as a walk on and they actually want to pay this bum to be a backup here? Dafug is this FO smoking?

Lance, Howell, draft any dude None of these guys have done anything notable in the NFL...and we have not gotten to the draft where I'd take a flier on Green. This has nothing to do with being a homer, I didn't want Pickett the year we took Corral, and I don't want him now; however, he's the BACKUP so it really doesn't matter.

We still have the usual overpaying for an OL player or 2 to look forward too, and then the small collection of role players and backups fished off other teams' benches for the defense.

Hellllooooo 6-11 purgatory

A 4th round pick won’t be our future QB. Might as well just wait for next year and pick a QB high.. No half measures. Might be possible with our tough schedule and BY as our QB. I think it’s smart to draft OL/secondary depth in the middle rounds this year. QB next year. This team needs every draft pick desperately. Just my opinion.

We also see QB's released / traded etc before that point to. I don't need you to tell me anything, I'm aware it could happen, I'm also aware Bryce hasn't done enough to warrant one at this time. So regardless of history we have to wait and see.

So he’s going to a team where he’ll be splitting carries at best and playing for a coach who passes the ball 90% of the time must have got a nice deal

There is only one Tershawn Wharton Sounds like it is going to drag out. I wouldn’t mind taking my ball and going home on this one and get one of the other players. Much cheaper.

Good for Rico

Lance, Howell, draft any dude Pickett is complete ass dude, complete ass. But defending this signing puts you in another stratosphere as a panther homer, so mad respect

to my knowledge no qb has ever played through their 5th year option and walked. If you dont think talks are preliminary going on with our front office and his agents then I am not sure what to tell you. The team is looking for any bright spot to extend him and signing Kenny fuging pickett is exhibit a, b and c. We are not a serious franchise and operate on feels. Will it happen this off season, probably not but it wouldnt surprise me, will it happen if bryce replicates his stats and we are something like 3-3. Without a doubt they pay him

I mean honestly from watching two minutes of highlights of his game and a half of play last season, His deep ball looks better than BY and he can actually QB sneak...

Hand, meet glove.

Better question, what young, athletic / mobile QB did you ''think'' they were going to be able to sign for 4M + incentives? As a matter of fact, let's say for 10M...who do you think that QB would be...? I was hoping for Lance based on upside, but it's a toss-up for these back-ups. The HOPE is that they never play anyway. It's not defending, it's just the reality of the market.

Pay him. Don't settle for another Tershawn Wharton.

Wow Rico is going to Pittsburg

Goddamnit I cannot argue that, good point

Yall are overreacting a bit. Is the offense really going to look that much different with Pickett? No. The answer is no. Pull up the Pickett highlights they are identical.

I wouldn't go that far, there's no reason to extend him, it's a 1-year deal for Pickett, and with Bryce under contract for 2 more, I don't think we are at that point until we see a 9+ win season.

incoming marty herniay restructures incoming......all for a 5 win team that lucked in 8 wins cause Rico went super Saiyan for a few weeks..... bloody hell..

One of the writers or bloggers, forget who, said they are waiting to make their big signings so they can know exactly how much they need to trim and who will be involved. Supposed to avoid just blindly creating a bunch of cap space. Just what I saw somewhere.

Think about this, even the Raiders didn't want him back even as a backup You know, the worst team in the League? Yeah, those Raiders.
