Is D Jack gone?

I don’t see a situation where we can keep him. I haven’t looked up all the money and contracts yet, but bringing in a second year guy in Henderson, with Horn and the money we have to pay Gilmore. Doesn’t look good.

 

Also, I’m loving what Fitterer is doing but the one thing I don’t want to get lost on is not supporting the offense. I know he built the LOB, but I feel like the game has changed. It’s an offensive league now. I’m happy with the moves though, loving the attention to detail he’s bringing!

According to what I read, Gilmore is on the final year of his contract.  He could be a 1 year rental.  Or we might decide to keep him longer, but we might have some choices to make next year.  Hopefully, that is a good thing.

Gilmore is $5.8M this year and then a free agent. If he balls out and is looking for a massive deal I really do not see us re-signing him. In which case we would keep Jackson along with the 2 young guys and still be stacked at CB. If we did keep Gilmore past this year then yeah Jackson is unfortunately probably gone. Which would suck as I love the guy's play

None of the corners we have bringing in have been brought here to replace Jackson. They are where because our depth is thin and injuries. Jackson has been absolutely killing it in coverage and tackling and from what I have seen a great field leader too. We have money to spend next year and he will be worth returning at the right price. Just let the season and off season play out before jumping to conclusions about corners being brought in to replace corners other than Jackson.

Gilmore is a one year rental to replace Horn and allow us to bring Henderson along slow as he is the future. Gilmore will return a 5th or 6th comp pick if we don’t re sign so it’s a win win for us. This has nothing to do with D Jack and I fully expect us to try to extend him after the season

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
