The Badger of Honey, set to be the highest paid safety in the NFL


Recommended Posts

Rival team or not, if he's managed to clean his life up and focus on improving then I'm happy for the man.  Get that money my man!

Just so I don't say too many good things about the Cards, *ahem* 49-15

Moreso. He played 70% of the time at CB, but top safeties are much cheaper.

Right. "Set to become 'highest paid safety'" is just an attention seeking headline.

Hopefully this can be seen as an example of a kid with a troubled past coming out of college who gets put in a good environment and locker room and turns his life around instead of fans immediately writing people off for actions or choices they made when they were 18-22 years old. 

 

Its really sickening seeing the same holier than thou crowd dismiss people like they are some righteous beacons of goodness talking down people behind computer screens. If any locker room could turn someone around and bring them into the family we have it's ours.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
