Bad Hurney Contracts: Who's Left?

Pretty sure most would agree DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart - even at their best - are overpaid.

 

Charles Johnson is also looking overpaid this season (seems like he's hurt).

 

Would you consider Ryan Kalil a bad contract?  Arguably the best center in the league.

 

Who else is left that got big money from Hurney?  Am I forgetting anyone?

I would say DeAngelo and J-Stew.

 

I think Chuck was paid fair market value. If we didn't give him that deal, Atlanta would have. I think its obvious he's playing through injury right now.

 

Kalil isn't a bad contract. His play is suffering from the play of those around him. Not a surprise given every other player around him going forward is either an UDFA, a rookie, or both.

I'm not so sure we keep Johnson going forward.

 

People have been speculating on when Williams or Stewart (or both) will be jettisoned for years.

 

I don't know if we can afford to cut him...according to spotrac his dead money hit next year is $14m. At least he's still useful. I think it's more likely he's kept and Hardy walks.

Jon Beason is getting $8 million this year to help another team win the super bowl

 

Not really:

LB Jon Beason, on @WFAN660, said it's "50-50" on whether he'll have to shut it down four the season. May need surgery on toe.

Beason is currently in Charlotte visiting foot/ankle specialist Dr. Robert Anderson and expects to know about surgery by tomorrow.

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
