We all knew this was coming.. but still needs to be reported i guess..

 

He will be #2 or #3 on our FA list behind Batum (which I'm hearing will get done as soon as FA opens) and possible our hole at the Center position.. If we can sign Batum, then quickly get Lin back and still have enough for a max player - you can bet we getting a rebounding/shot blocking center

This would be best case scenario for sure. To resign Lin and Batum and a Howard/Whiteside type might put us in the ECF. Especially if MKG can stay healthy. Now if we could draft someone who isn't a PF...

We would have to waive bu-bye the Courtney Lee for sure - Marvin might come back on the hometown discount, maybe.. but if we were able to get Batum, Lin and Howard - there ain't no "Might be in the ECF" = We in there for sure!

Bruh, we be in there like swimwear.

With the way he played and the expected jump in salary cap, it makes no sense for him to opt in. I don't think this means he doesn't want back but knows his market value. He truly deserves more than $2.2 million.

To be honest, I would like to keep Batum and Marvin and draft a PG.

It is absolutely crucial that Lin is re-signed. He covers up for some ball movement deficiencies of the 1st and 2nd string units. 

Depends on what he's demanding.  He could probably get 7.5 to 8 million per year on the market.

    • I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.  
    • Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.  
    • The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
