You’re missing a couple things. First, the pre-June 1st cut nets you $8M. $3M in  2021 and $5M in 2022. If we keep him and release him in 2022 we still get hit with $5M in 2022 if he’s not here. So, if we release him whether pre or post, we still save a total of $8M and with rollover it really doesn’t matter which cap year the savings occurs. Second, you can cut him and designate as a Post June 1st, you don’t actually wait until June 1st to do it.

I’d rather save $8M than have a lame duck QB do nothing. 

If we trade for a QB that makes sense, but if we have a rookie you let him get beat up on instead of the rookie. There is no sense in sacrificing you're Franchise QB over a guy that's not going to be here in 2 years. 

As stupid as Teddy's contract was, this was always what the plan was supposed to be when you blow through all the coach speak, player speak, and other bs.

Plus, keeping Teddy allows us to lose a few more games than we should and really but a nice bow on the final true year of rebuilding and switch gears after next season.

If we don't make a trade by the draft I think he's the starter day 1 unless we get Wilson. Which isn't a bad thing. Let him take the hits for the young kid, and get a good draft pick for a final year that could spring board us into the playoffs.

I think Teddy starting is a worst case scenario. I don't want to see him ruin another season and make the morale of the team suffer.

We need to have a starting caliber NFL QB in 2021.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
