I don’t understand what’s going on in this place. Sign an OG with zero all pros and people are calling him top 5 in the league. Have the chance to sign an All pro linebacker and saying he’s above average but not a top LB like wtf is going on here.

Stop conflating. Queen would be great for us, not downing the guy by any means.

Because another team valued him more. Talk about scheme all you want but I very seriously doubt Luvu left money on the table to sign with the Commanders. We valued offensive guards more. A LOT more.

It was a similar contract.  Luvu WANTED to play for the Commanders because he liked the scheme and wanted to play for Quinn.  FREE agents are FREE to sign with other teams, even for less or equal money if they want. 

He also allows 75% of passes to be completed thrown towards him ranking him 12th worst in the league.

So you wanted us to prioritize and overpay a linebacker to keep him?  Marty, is that you?

He just wants to be upset about something.  The man is mad we paid OGs.  After watching last year everyone should want this.  

I don't like that we have an arguably top 5 OG top 5 LT money. That's not what smart teams do.

I mean... it's not like a Panthers fan has far to look to find something to be upset about. We don't have to go nitpicking. LOL

The Eagles just paid their OG a similar contract.  Hunt is the one you are referring to because the other OG was a reasonable contract.  Hunt is just a back loaded 3 year deal being incredibly cheap this year.  We can walk away after year 3 with no money loss.  

We should keep trying different OGs like last year though because that worked out GREAT.

How’d that work out for us this past season?

Lol they were great at avoiding them for sure. If they can't draft OGs or DTs they shouldn't be drafting anything.

How did it work for their QB? Or 2nd round WRs? We can do this all day with a poorly run team.

    • 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.
    • 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.
