how did you get cheap from this? He's said repeatedly he'll spend money on a coach. Their primary concern is winning and they pointed out that the winning coaches have come from the assistants, that playoffs teams are built that way, and of course (ugh) that the Steelers are.

Won't sign players until the CBA is done is his stance... has been all along.

I got cheap because it is cheap. He didn't have to say "I'm cheap." It's obvious. He doesn't want to go after a big name because it will cost more. He'd rather play duck, duck, goose, with loser assistants like Perry Fewell that shouldn't be anything more than positional coaches.

So that way we can come back 5 years from now looking for another new coach and say that one didn't work out, but hey, he saved a couple mil.

he didn't have an opinion one way or the other about harbaugh or any coach for that matter. all he said is that money wasn't going to be a factor. he did say that they were going to be a lot pickier about what they expect from them.

wow some people are just fuging stupid.

Harbaugh is a college coach, before the Luck/Harbaugh scenario arose every single one of us would have scoffed at hiring a college coach.

Now he's the second coming of Jesus The Golden Calf of Bristol and JR is "cheap" if he doesn't hire Harbaugh. Jesus what a bunch of pussies

JR isn't getting in a bidding war for Harbaugh, since he's never been an NFL Coach is my guess.

Personally I think the Harbaugh/Luck scenario, while expensive up front would generate enough buzz to more than Pay for the investment down the field. Compared to where we are going, Russ Grimm

So many fans are acting like spoiled brats, have you ever seen somebody run a business before?

Should we hire Cowher since he won the Superbowl 5 years ago? We did that with Seifert I don't remember that working out too well.

He was paying Fox and staff 11.5 million which he said was 5th highest in the league. How is that cheap?

Harbaugh might want more than just a lot of money. He might want more control of a team than we are willing to give. Also, how many times does the man need to say he's not going to be cheap before you believe him? Having the 5th highest paid staff in the NFL is by no means cheap.

      Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Supplemental draft uses picks from next year. So a team were to draft him in the 1st, their upcoming 1st next draft would no longer be available. There have been some notable players that were obtained in the supplemental draft, such as Kosar. It doesn't necessarily happen every year either, and is more on a as needed basis. The gambling trouble is a big red flag for teams, and maybe pushes him down to a 4th? Not sure a team would use a 1st on him.
