I think the one thing that we should take away from seeing Davis and Bonnafon play the past two weeks.....we should never see another 40-50 touch game for CMC. 

We have guys that can spell him, so actually fuging use them and stop wearing the fuging tread off the tires.

Davis does look good, with the way Brady schemes people open I would love to see CMC operate from the slot receiver postion, especially on the mid yardage to go downs.

CMC makes the team better, just not enough to warrant his contract

He does more than enough. He’s making offensive weapon money. Guys like Watkins get his level of money. Teams have plenty of money to pay their superstars, they always get paid on another level than the average guys.

If we can pay Short and Okung $27M and go 2-0  while they get a combined 1 tackle in 1 start, then we can pay CMC $13M a year over the first 3 years of the deal. It’s basically a 3 year $39M deal. Would you rather have Paradis for 3 years?

These threads are so dumb. When we give up 37 points, 14 of which were were in the last 4.5 minutes with decent sized leads that’s what wins games. If the D keeps improving, CMC will be a great weapon. When you were giving up 30 points a game the last year and a half, it makes CMC’s efforts seem useless and to a point the are, but so are everyone’s when you can’t ever hold an opponent from scoring.

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

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.

      If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
