San Diego just let go of one of the top 10 NT/DT in the league...idiots.

I'm guessing that the $6M tag was a little too much for em, considering age and 1 game played last year. I hope he can come back with a smaller number, but if not, then it better be Dan Williams/Terrence Cody at 28.

Not surprised at the tender offer, but the 1st and 3rd little surprising, since it appeared he was going to walk away. Still perhaps the FO look at the roster and realized they didn't have another RB. Not to mention the value Sproles has as a screen-pass or quick hitter for Phillip Rivers.

I'm thinking the other way, go later for an RB, barring Spiller sitting there @ 28. I could see them going Hardesty/Dixon/Blount later in the draft and having them behind Sproles and an FA pickup (Chet Taylor?)

M. Hardesty in San Diego is a great fit.

Yeah, I think that's what they'll do, barring a surprise drop on a prime O'lineman.

I am surprised at the highest tender, but not getting tendered.

J Wall is 34, and coming off of a season ending injury, this is not a total shock. Don't be shocked if he is re signed at a lower rate.

Also don't be shocked if Jackson, Merriman, Sproles, or Floyd is traded, but not for the tendered amount.

      Everything revolves around Bryce This Year

      By Navy_football · Posted

      Option 1 is most likely. Even if he kills it this year, it wouldn't be prudent to rush an extension for one good season. If you have to pay him more because you waited another year, then he earned it. And that's OK. Adjust accordingly.

      Cam had the advantage of having a very strong supporting cast his first 2 seasons. Things definitely worsened later on. But those first couple of years can kill a QB. Some never truly recover. If they do recover it takes years, and usually with another team. Trying to learn to be an NFL QB with TEs and WRs that are trying to learn too is a recipe for disaster. Imagine if Cam's rookie season was that 2014 offensive squad. Changes everything! I said it when they moved up in 2023. This team wasn't ready for a rookie QB yet. Anyone that thinks Stroud would have been a lot better is delusional. The correct formula is to build a strong team and then you go get your rookie QB. Not the other way around. BY is going into his third season and we're still trying to put a respectable group of WRs and TEs around him. I think they have the right personnel now. Unfortunately they haven't developed into actual NFL players yet.  This season we should expect consistency and aggressiveness from BY. Mostly for his development but also to DEVELOP his young cast.

      It is goofy how some people hate Bryce so much that they're flat out lying to try and remain entitled to their pessimism. It's insanity. Most fans are realists and eagerly awaiting the season to see if we get pre- or post-benching Bryce to start the season and how much he is able to do with some young and developing weapons. Many of us understand that these young guys are going to have growing pains on the job as well as the new defense, but the fans with all of the excuses for why Bryce can't be successful are pounding the no excuses drum. Personally, I'd prefer the Keep Pounding drum.
