According to Voth on BBR, Johnson wants to test the market first and would be willing to return. So he is looking for more money then D.G was willing to fork over. The man has made MILLONS of dollars from this club and was unwilling to return for the money offered. How many of you would want him back if he decides to take the Gettie figure after testing the market? Or would you rather move on from him and start anew, regardless if he would return?

I don't blame him one bit for testing the market. He hasn't performed up to his pay level here but he will almost certainly get a bigger pay day elsewhere.  Pass rushers usually get overpaid in free agency. 

 

I'd have no problem with him coming back. He is a very good 4-3 end when healthy and also had five sacks in our last two postseasons (one per game average)

First of all, the majority here would take money over the other option, so i don't get the double standard.

I don't blame him wanting to find out his value. 

Stop acting scorned.

The thing I don't get is, we are talking a few millions difference after he's made what 35-50 over the course of his career? At this point, my highest priority would be getting a ring.

Scorned?  I don't give a shat either way if he comes back or not....just relating what was said on BBR.

He's obviously damaged goods or else we'd be sitting pretty with having our good old, guaranteed, 10-sack per season Big Money rolling strong on the field.

you can't tell me that we'd let go of a perrinial pro-bowler at a position as crucial to our success as is our DEs.

Its obviously more than just money as to the reasons he got cut.

Now it becomes a numbers game.  Is it worth a couple million extra to him to leave his team? Say Atlanta, or Jax, or whoever with space offers him 8 a year, and the Panthers are offering 5-6...why leave?  Me thinks he might be back unless some team goes stupid.

His nickname is Big Money...he is going where the cash is.

Good question, Jmac.  I think you have to look forward and not in the past when talking contract.  Hurney used contracts to reward past performance, when only future potential is important.  This was most evident in the Jake Delhomme contract, after Tommy John surgery.  Nobody would have paid half what MH paid him.

      Mike Kaye predicting we trade up in 2nd round

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that

      Day 2 Targets/Faves

      By woahfraze · Posted

      There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.

      Sounds like Veesaar is entering the draft. He could always test the waters and pull out and return but without him our big men look like a serious liability. Better do something in the portal. If they don't do something about this portal madness my days as a college sports fan are probably numbered. This bullshit of having a nearly entirely new team every season is gonna get old fast.
