Gettleman won't want to give up a 5th year option on a first round selection. It is like a free franchise tag. 

 

Another team would have to throw in their first for next year, and they would be idiots to do that for the 30th pick. But, that said.... Hurney. 

What are your feelings on this, out of curiosity?

 

CAR would love to move out of 30, trading w/team who wants a QB ahead of QB-needy DEN at 31.

The other side of the fifth year option argument is teams will pay more to get qbs on a fifth year option. Extra picks would help us have more leverage to move up in the second. Would you rather have our 1st rounder on a 5 year option and miss out on the shepards and whomever will be gone halfway through the second or the same first rounder early in the second and a player like sterling Shepard both on 4 year deals. We can't move high enough in the second now to get those players unless someone takes a tumble.

u know if I am gettlemen and lynch is there at 30, knowing cleveland, and other teams want him.  I call denver and say look, u want this guy or what?  Were gonna trade out to a qb team unless you swap spots for a 3rd or 4th. just see what happens.He gets to keep his 5th year option.

I like the way you think.  Have no idea if Elway would go for something like that, but it's a very interesting idea!

I'd make the deal with Cleveland but it would require them parting ways with the 2017 first they just got from Philly. 

No one would give up a 2017 1st to move from 32 to 30. That would be insane.

Cleveland now has an extra first next year.

There's a value to the fifth year option, but that value goes down for RBs, TEs and Ss who are the lowest paid.  If the Panthers pick a DT or DE, I would expect them to stay put, but if they are looking at the former, I could see them trading back since that's where the value is for those positions and it would give them the ability to trade up later.

Id rather try to get the Browns first round pick or next year 

#30, our 4th, and 5th, for Joe Thomas and their now disposable other 1st next year.  They'd have 3 in the first 32, add multiple moneyball picks and drop Thomas' salary and still have their assortment next year.  We, likewise, would strike gold both short and long term, and would still keep our 2nd and 3rd.

      Interesting: Former CAR RB Mike Davis Harshly Criticizes McCaffrey, Calls Him "Selfish as Poo"

      By CRA · Posted

      Mike Davis is like yeah, why would these coaches expect me to watch film on our next opponent if I'm playing good.  Yeah, I really don't pay attention to a lot of stuff around me if I'm doing good.   also Mike Davis, how dare they give all the reps to CMC.  from just listening to that interview, I think Mike Davis likely was often in Mike Davis' way and he can't comprehend that aspect.  Even his story of why he hated people.....was weird.  He hated Steve Spurrier because Spurrier was like hey Mike, Marcus Lattimore left...and we need you to step up into that role/void and be more for us.   And Mike Davis was like, can you believe that motha trucka!! Nah Steve.  Just give me the ball and leave me alone (paraphrasing it all obviously but that was the gist).

      Unless he's 1,000%, just sit him an extra week at this point to let him get his legs back under him. I want to see him out there as much as the next guy, but this was a serious thing and I'd rather wait an extra week than put him out one day too early and risk something going wrong, play the long game for once.

      God, these posts are really starting to piss me off If we're relying on Moore, Idzik, and Canales to carry that weight, then we're royally screwing over our young WR room.  It's not that those guys can't help with some of it, but these young promising WRs are going to miss out on a lot of learning that can only be provided by the vets on the team.   You do realize that coaches spend ZERO time in the locker room, right?   They are only in there just before games and at halftime, but the rest of the week, they have their own locker room, they only spend time with the players on the field and in the film room.  There is soooooo much time that you're leaving unaccounted for where players are working together to get better. Players are constantly talking about their game and how they can improve while they're in the locker room.  If you think career long special teamer David Moore is going to be able to carry that water in the locker room, then you're sorely and woefully mistaken. Even beyond that, if a coach pulls a player aside to give advice between series, that still means there are 4-5 other WRs who aren't getting individual advice, where that's normally a time a vet like Thielen is going over with them what he's seeing out there and how they can do X, Y, or Z to do A, B, or C better on the next drive.
