Pat Stewart out

Williams makes it sound like they're parting amicably but Stewart might be a little disappointed.

Mentioned that he's previously worked with Cardinals GM Monti Ossenfort so I wonder if he lands there.

(and if he does, would he be willing to help facilitate trade talks with us)

Talked previously here about people with connections to Reich. Here are two that come to mind...

Morocco Brown: Brown currently holds the title of Chief Personnel Executive with the Colts. He's previously worked in personnel roles for the Redskins, Browns and Bears.  He has some Carolina connections in that his first NFL boss was original Panthers GM Bill Polian and he's a graduate of NC State. Worth noting as well that Brown has been interviewed by multiple teams for GM openings.

Ed Dodds: The current Colts Assistant GM has more and deeper connections than Brown in that he's not only worked with Reich but also with Scott Fitterer and Dan Morgan for several years in Seattle. And yes, he's also had multiple GM interviews, including with us (he pulled out of the search shortly after interviewing). The problem here would be that Dodds already has an Assistant GM role so a position like Stewart's would be a step down.

Either of these guys would be a home run addition to the front office. Brown would obviously be the more likely of the two given their respective positions but there is a scenario where Dodds and the Colts could part ways if Colts owner Jim Irsay insists on hiring Jeff Saturday and Dodds isn'ton board with tying his career to that decision.

    • TBH, these are the kind of players that get weeded out of professional sports pretty quickly. Also, CMC is not that guy. There is zero indication that he isn't competitive. 
    • I like the free agency. It actually helps basically all schools across the board. Pretty much only ancient HC's and/or HC's that haven't been able to adjust have been complaining about the free agency. Your fortunes can be made or broken every offseason. It's not like before where a bad recruiting class or two meant multiyear purgatory.  I will never understand all the bellyaching about the NIL. If you want to talk about what ruined college athletics, it has been naked greed. Conference expansions for TV revenue, ever skyrocketing AD and facilities costs and now the attempts to permanently ruin the postseasons(football and basketball).  All the kids did was get a very well deserved piece of a very, very, VERY broken pie.
    • Nobody is saying they don't count against the cap, because yes, they technically do count against the cap as it's money the team is paying and it needs to be accounted for. But what you're not grasping it seems is that if a player gets $10 million guaranteed in their contract, whether they get literally $0 as a signing bonus or $8 million as a signing bonus, it doesn't change the overall cap hit of the contract, because cap hits are about the guaranteed money, not how much is paid up front. The only thing that how much is paid up front changes, is how the cap hit can be spread out amongst the years. So yes, technically there could end up being a slightly bigger cap hit in year 3 and 4 due to a bigger signing bonus, but if that is the case, it also means there will be a lesser cap hit in years 1 and 2 than there would have been with a smaller bonus.  But over the length of the contract, the size of the signing bonus has literally zero affect on the overall cap hit of the contract, because THAT part of it is 100% about the guaranteed money and nothing else.
