CMC, DJ, Horn.  One of these things is not like the others. 

after 3 years in, CMC was arguably the best RB in the NFL. 

after 3 years in, DJ was putting up back to back seasonal production few WRs in the NFL were matching. 

I mean, everyone knew they were going go be good elsewhere because that's what they were here. 

the last first several first rounders that disappointed during his rookie contract and  left.... didn't go blowup elsewhere.   Butler and KB.  Heck even ones that didn't disappoint didn't go and do better.  Star.  Same for the recent 2nd rounders we didn't extend and let see the door from E. Brown to Clausen to Curtis.  

Last decade, guys who didn't pan out here didn't go pan out elsewhere.  Yet somehow people are worried about that? 

I'm specifically talking about the two players I mentioned and not starting a trend for the future. With those two players, the rebuild here wouldn't be so stark and we aren't better off than we were before. It is ridiculous to trade away good players you draft and send them to these historically good organizations for next to nothing. It happens all the times in pro sports and different pro leagues. When Horn plays, he is a shut down corner and strong tackler from the CB position. We have plenty of cap room. Nobody is talking about the old bums that you brought up.

have to make the decision by May 2nd

Horns option will cost 11.29 mil

 

keep in mind.  We have roughly 29 mil in Space (probably will open 10 more with restructures etc)

and have Burns+Luuvu as FA.

Excuse me but wtf does 2025 cap hit have to do with 2024 cap hit?

I can't just get excited about Horn because he's been a non-factor. He's been more like a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow than a unicorn, but they're both kinda delusional. Until I see him play the preponderance of a season, I'm not going to really care one way or another whether we extend him or not. I've moved on mentally. Maybe he'll surprise me by the end of next season.

And when he has played, has never even had Bradberry type moments shutting down a Matt Ryan to Julio connection to even claim he is being overlooked by people. 

Because teams respect his coverage and avoid him. A legit shutdown corner when he's out there.

but again, to date, what the biggest test Jaycee Horn has seen and successfully shutdown? 

the only actual good QB/WR duo he has been on the field for......he wasn't tested as the game was a blowout from the jump.
