Gonna need quite a bit when we can't afford to pay Burns, Donte, Reddick, etc. Damn near allowed 600 yards to the Vikings...

Burns is in his third year, at least 2 more years before you have to pay him and yet to make a pro bowl. Reddick is manageable with the increasing cap, donte may be odd man out but considering us trading and drafting for some many corners lately thats a move you should be comfortable with more than any other position on team.

From Scott Fowler's article on the possibility of a trade for Watson:

Quote

In pragmatic terms, I could see Watson’s legal issues taking a season or two to resolve. More importantly, in human terms, it’s not the right move for the Panthers. With all of those outstanding accusations, is that really the message your organization should be sending? A win-at-all-costs, damn-the-torpedoes course of action? It shouldn’t be.

I think if we do somehow end up getting him, then Tepper will have done his homework with the league and verified that there is no suspension on the horizon.  He does not strike me as the type of guy to just hope it goes his way in a situation like this where the stakes are so high. 

That's fair.

I trust Fitter.

Deshaun Watson is going to play football again.  That is a 100% fact.  So we should be okay with the league letting him play, just as long as he doesn't play for our team?  Because that is what it boils down to.  

I don't care if he ever plays another down of football.   Some things are bigger than a damn football game.  He is a dumbass at the very least and a sexual predator at worst.  I will never watch that dude play.

Even if it ends up on the dumbass side? Lot of dumbasses out there on the field and in the world. Gotta let that slide man. Now if its on the sexual predator side, yeah I understand. But you'll never watch him guilty or innocent? Well regardless that's your decision right lol

      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.
