Is Taylor Moton. Let’s discuss this under appreciated, massive man. He has been as solid as they come his entire career and is one of the greatest Tackles we have ever had. It is crazy to think how solid he has been, and what could happen if he leaves us, yet here we are at a breaking point with his contract.

he just turned 30 (still young enough for a few solid years), He has a massive cap hit next year of 31 million, we are already paying two guards top money, and have Icky’s contract coming around the corner. We cannot have a 31 million cap number for him next season, we would save 12 million if cut but would create a massive hole. If we extend him, we could cut down on his cap hit massively but would be spending big money on 4/5th of the O line (worth it in my opinion). So I ask the Huddle General Managers….what would you do?

I'll let the nerd they hired from KC worry about that. He's got this. 

I agree but say they cut him, that’s creating a massive hole on a team with a lot of holes. With Bryce going into year 3 of his rookie contract I say it’s worth spending big money on the line and building the defense through the draft and FA. We already have questions on center going on, and with the improvements being shown by Bryce, I can’t imagine we go backwards in the only strength of the team. It will be interesting to see how they handle it.

I would be floored if they cut him. The odds of that is almost nill. They will try to work a reasonable extension if I were to guess.

I say let it ride. $31mil cap hit is going to suck for next year, but I’d rather deal with it in 2025 than adding more liabilities to future years. We’re not finding a better RT for the money we would save in releasing him. 
 

Work a new deal with him for a 3 year extension.

The Charlotte observer recently wrote about him and the pros/cons of re signing him as he has health with knee soreness the last few seasons and again dealt with knee issues at the end of this season but I still take that risk 10/10 times based on his career so far, very rarely ever missing a game. A 2/3 year extension seams reasonable and I doubt he wants to leave us and end his career here

      I'm convinced Harden wants to do nothing but put up pretty shots and try to draw fouls and then do nothing on defense lol. Brunson went off though

      what does Bryce's 2026 season need to look like for you to be oaky with extending him?

      Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens.

      Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.
