RBs just don't hold their value, especially given their durability issues.

They have up picks for sure, but the thing that worries me most is what kind of contract we would offer Watson immediately. 50-55m a year for 10 years, 300m guaranteed. I don't know that we would, but it wouldn't surprise if we made him the highest paid QB in the NFL.

Easiest way to deal with DW and our offense would be to have long slow drives against a weak defense.

Record isn't everything. Personality matters and Rhule is arrogant about his abilities and puts blame on others when it doesn't belong there. That tends not to sit well with people.

Was referring more to Rhules attitude and personality rather than coaching records. His pressers are like nails on a chalk board.

A coach that isn't Matt Rhule.

If they're a fan of Lance, it could work. New franchise QB on a rookie deal and a couple pieces or picks to go with. I can see it.

Maybe maybe not. Chinn is not a FS, he's a SS. Deep cover is not his game.

I prefer Rhay-Z. 1000%

I'm not sure why Fitts will want to stay as GM if he's given another offer elsewhere. This team is run by Rhule.

I'll reserve my praise for Tepper/Fitts/Rhule until the results are in. Landing Watson does not guarantee success. A house can look amazing on the outside and still collapse due to a crumbling foundation.

Did you recite 100 Hail Hurney's as penance?

We just knew Grier was going to be the pick a month before the draft. It was a worse kept secret than Tepper wanting DW

They do have THE Taysom Hill.

They proved to be straight trash before we signed them.

Ashton Kutcher is going to hold a press conference and let us know we've been punked and we really fired Matt Rhule.

Not really. It's a little further drive but it's legal.

And beads can get you a long way on Bourbon Street. Much cheaper too.

Tepper is probably going to offer to pay his settlement if he comes here.

Can't hold every team below 7 points.

So first day FA signing for us then.

That's kind of my point. Every year it's said the salary cap hell is going to come. It's been what, 15 years now, and we just keep hearing any day. How many posts are in this topic worrying about if NO gets Watson they are going to dominate us for a decade. It's because we all know that the cap isn't a limitation for NO as much as we wish it was. And if they give up a bunch of picks so continued success is going to be hard, wouldn't that apply here as well? We have Rhule steering the ship right now and his influence over contracts and player acquisition is downright awful. He's a bigger hindrance than anything else.

No disagreement there. But if they don't and have some down time, expect them to let a lot of that dead cap space come off the books.
