I am pretty skeptical of him getting a big paycheck. I suspect the Huddle is going to find out that the league as a whole doesn't view him quite the same way we do.

He is definitely better than Yosh Nijman but I remember all the glowing things said about his ability to play(some predicting he would start here lol) and he was easily the worst offensive lineman on the roster by a pretty substantial margin.

8 million per is our friendly bet. I know campy thought highly of him and even called him one of the best players on the team. He and others talk to scouts/GMs/presid/etc. The FA class is weak and he's shown LT, OGs and even C with good play levels. 

I think some team with space and a need at OT, with drop him a offer above 8milion.  Some zone blocking team would love him at either OG too and hunt got 20 million this past year. 

I think Nijman is like a 50/50 cut, like if you are right and christ market is cold.....Dan could cut yoshi and pay BC a similar contract. I'd love to keep him, but I put it at a 2% chance he's here in 25. He has great 2022 tape along with starts across the line.

Not that I am advocating paying him ( I don't focus much on cap space unless its a crazy contract ). Would it be advisable to pay him now to keep him on the roster to replace Moton after next year? It would hurt to lose a capable linemen who we know works for us. Just a thought. What's the huddle think?

He's going to get paid somewhere and be offered a starting spot, he's gone.

I’m not so sure about that. We tend to overrate our guys. I don’t blame him for taking as much as he can get but that article says nothing about him having a ton of interest. It’s basically from his side and likely his agent trying to drum up interest in him.

All that said, this is another example of us being bad drafters. We take project WRs over solid to stud OL and long snappers/tiny QBs over day 3 OL that have started elsewhere. Now that we have a ton of day 3 picks we better be shooting tons of shots at lineman, O or D.

Seems like people have forgotten, Brady C is only 2 years younger than Taylor Moton.

He will be 29 this autumn, Moton will be 31.

If we want to look at the future after Moton, BC is not the one.

Yeah, the idea that he is going to be a highly sought after starter is pretty ridiculous, IMO. If he truly were that guy we would have had people beating down our doors to trade for him over the course of his career here. 

He is a very solid backup OL that can play at a league average or slightly better level at multiple spots. That's definitely valuable but it isn't suddenly becoming a top shelf starter in the NFL.

I don't think anyone is saying that. Being given a starting opportunity is not the same thing as suddenly becoming top shelf.

      I think Indiana will win it all but Miami should give them a much better fight than Oregon did.

      If you need some ‘chills’ to start your Friday….

      When I tell people I was at that game, they usually say oh that’s so cool you had the experience. I call it soul crushing. Why? The weeks and months leading up to it were great, the team was fun to watch every week…some weeks the offense was unstoppable and carried the team (saints and giants road games), other times the defense carried the load (jaguars, tampa). Lots of back and forth games against good teams (Seattle and Indy). Good young players on the team, but the veteran leadership was incredible…from Cam, Olsen, Kalil and J Stew to Luke, TD, Norman, Tillman, Jared Allen, CJ. Role players like Fozzy Whitaker, Cotchery (he caught that MFer), Philly brown, Kyle love, AJ Klein, and so on.  The Friday before the nfc championship my wife and I after a few drinks said let’s see what prices look like for flights/accommodations and we got to talking about how much prices would increase if we waited until we found out if we would be in the big game. We said screw it, we are only out $200 if we have to cancel.  Of course we come out and just pulverized the cardinals in front of the most raucous crowd by far we’ve ever had. We had no idea what we would do for game tickets and then found out a neighbor who worked for the team could get us 2 for face value (each employee got two of their own for free, something cool that JR did).  But then the NFL mafia decided that the storyline of manning going out on top like Elway would give them more goodwill than a non traditional QB who didn’t connect with their target demo and the rest is history. I never have and never will watch that game again. I am just hoping I can see them win one in the 2nd half of my life.
