Heads up: Gettleman on PFT Live at noon.


Recommended Posts

Dave Gettleman coming up after the break. And super randomly, they did a breakdown of the average percentage of salary cap of the last 15 superbowl winning quarterbacks. The result.....7%.  

Would be much more interested in the median percentage and what percentage those QBs became in their next contract after winning the SB.

​Median was 6.5%. And the following schedule would be skewed when comparing to Cam because it, of course, includes a Superb Owl win.

F: Cam said it changes nothing. Anything from team perspective?

G: Better set to plan for cash spending elsewhere

F: Doesn’t seem to be a huge cap spike coming up.

G: Very important to smooth cap out. Been a fly on the wall for many bad deals.

Agreed about Cam in the sense that he hasn't won, but not every quality QB wins a Super Bowl and not every SB-winning QB is top-tier. One could also argue that winning one could be an indicator of quality.

F: Where has roster improved the most this year?

G: All around. Depth at O-line, mentioned Remmers and bringing in Oher. Excited about WR position. Entioned KB, Brown, Cotch, Boykin, and getting Ginn back. Likes LB’s that they brought in.

​True, but I think that it served more to show that a lot of teams that have won have done so because they had more money to invest elsewhere on the team.

I feel like Gettleman's complete non interest and tone in talkng about Kuechly's contract priority is telling.

​He's never talked about contracts. Had the same non-interest and tone talking about Cam.

    • A competent GM could have turned that Burns trade into 4 or 5 day 1 picks and still ended up with BY. Fitts was just so fugging bad. 
    • Well, as far as backups go, Kyle Allen is actually a decent one.  Better at this point than Dalton probably. That being said, Hooker apparently had an atrocious game against the Texans.  
    • i wouldn't say that yet. I also wouldn't say he's done anything that makes me think he's particularly good. i think that's about right for compensation both ways for thielen considering the state of the vikings and Panthers.  The weirdest thing is that technically the panthers should be adding veteran salary cap right now; they have a high cost first overall qb on a rookie contract; that's the best advantage in the NFL in this day and age. It hasn't worked out because, well, the qb they drafted isn't good and they've ignored other parts of the team to try to bolster him.  so what's morgan really supposed to do? Are they tanking with a rookie qb in year three that the owner probably personally wanted drafted? Are they actually trying to win games this year with 80 career catches between their top three receivers? The defense is probably going to be terrible. What kind of jump are people actually expecting from Coker, Bryce, XL, and performance from a rookie to overcome that? It's not realistic.  At the end of the day I don't think Thielen wanted to end his career here and I don't blame him. Minnesota is going to compete this year and Carolina isn't. I also think this is to toss Bryce to the wolves and be done with him one way or another. There's no way this works. This is not a move you make if you're trying to win football games.
