This wasn't a bad trade for someone that was going to cost us 

1. 8.4 mill next year.

2. Didn't scare anyone (DB's across the league say it). 

3. Always showed up out of shape. 

4. Doesn't bring anything that can't be replaced or is already replaceable.

We do get immediate return by him not bogging down the offense.   Think about it, short of blown coverage, he is never open.  Cam has to make lobbing or pin point passes to him every time.   It's like yeah he is big bodied by does Cam always have to make a high degree of difficulty throw all he time?  Say what you want about Ginn but he got separation (may end up dropping it).   Olsen gets separation.   Funchess (sometimes) get separation.  Mccafrey damn near always gets separation.   We will be a better by subtraction.   

Also Cam doesn't have to feel obligated to try and get him the ball like he does with KB.   When he was just throwing to whomever got open he was a much better QB.  We get immediate return by that in itself.

Remember when Getts drafted Kony Ealy?

Remember when he also didn't trade future picks for him and then, as mentioned, flopped him back some value?

Can't really say the same for a guy who literally used a 33rd overall pick on a D2 QB to convert to WR... something even fantasy football madden enthusiasts wouldn't dare do...

Sorry not enough sunshine to make this a good move...

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
