I remembered when Huddlers were low-key slamming Lloyd before last season. He didn't do anything but have his best season. Now, Huddlers are still potshooting the guy. #CarolinaHuddleLife

Lloyd might get paid and disappear per the one Jaguars fan I've ever met just told me.

The guy is about to be set for life regardless. He sure isn't being victimized by anyone on the huddle. Put away the violin okay?

How very Trumpian.

It's a conversation about paying him more than Roquan Smith.  I wouldn't qualify that as "potshooting".  Just some opinions on what we think.  Nothing more, nothing less.  

First off, I don't know why people immediately jumped to more than 20 mil per year. My guess is that it won't meet that threshold, certainly not the guaranteed part. Secondly, there's more to this thread than that...

He could. I doubt it though. His stats don't really bare that out. He hasn't been a superstar, but he hasn't been the Invisible Man either.

I don't know what you meant by that last sentence, but it is very likely he'll be north of 20 annually.  Market Value on sites is anywhere from 20 to 21.  UFAs tend to get overpaid relative to the largest contracts at their position which have been dated by a year or two.  Factor in inflation and cap increase, it's a reasonable assumption.

I want to believe Tillis is that type but I’m willing to bet he was the driving force between the Wharton deal which is scary to think about if that’s the case 

Did you watch his recent interview? He does not pick the players. He freely admits he is not involved in choosing what players they go after. He is the guy that sets their value and the value of all FA players. He will argue about salary cap impact and strategies of said players but he doesn't choose who we sign. He only tries to make the best decisions on the money side.

Bush getting 3 yr 30 with 21gtd might just save our asses

He also said he knew Wharton from KC and extolled his virtues.  Seems pretty reasonable to think he would have told his coworkers his impressions, even without making the final call.

I'm sure he gave them insights into why the Chiefs drafted him and what he was like while Tillis was there. It doesn't mean he told Dan to sign him.

Which is all I was saying. I feel sure he vouched for him, going off of what he said in the video. One of those blueprint videos I think.

The interview im referencing is his combine interview. He talks in depth about his role. Its really interesting and enlightening to how things work behind the scenes.

I saw that one. The one with the Wharton comments is from last year.  Like I said, I think a blueprint one maybe.
