Agent: Cardinals should pay Warner like one of the league's top QBs

http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=09000d5d80eec6ea&template=without-video-with-comments&confirm=true

"Agent Mark Bartelstein said Warner deserves a salary among the top "four or five" quarterbacks in the NFL, no matter where he plays. According to Bartelstein, those five earn an average of about $14.5 million per year."

Umm... we're giving Delhomme 11M a year. f*ck for that much money I'd cut Delhomme and sign Warner in a heartbeat.

Problem with Warner is age. A team would only sign him as a stop gap if they thought they were a QB away from being a SB contender.

Delhomme is not being paid $11M this year...that is his cap hit. He is in the last year of contract, which is alway back-end loaded.

Warner wants $12-13 M (top 5 money) average per year. Never get it as an aging QB.

No way Warner has a year like last season again. They act like the guy isn't loaded with talent around him as well. Colin Cowherd practically broke up with Tom Brady and gummed Warners balls on the radio this morning. Said he's worth it so they need to pay him top QB money. fug that, it was one fuging magical season, who honestly thinks the Cards will make it back to the SB next season if Warner gets his payday?

But what are their chances of making the playoffs without him? If we see the same ol' Leinart next year, those chances are not very good.

That's his cap value. That's not what he's making. I don't know what he's going to make this season but it's much less.

I think about 5. Warner can be the man for another year - for the Cardinals, but not for another team. Like FireBall said, learning a new system, etc. is not in the cards. Both sides have a power position here. It'll be interesting to see how it turns out...

    • People forgot that the think tank thought enough of smith-wade, to cut the vet starter troy hill mid-season. Just happened smith just injuried soon after.  Personally I see no issues/PRESS THE PANIC BUTTON!!!1!1!! to take this group into TC. Of course Id love to have 5 all-pros at CB too, but this is the real world. Cuts and even trades happen once teams are going though the TC process. Just pray for health, like all other groups....
    • I'll toss my 2 pennies(rip) into this. I was not a fan of the Dan hire, I'd say 80against/20meh. The right hand stuff and being a part of what I viewed as the sorriest panther team in history...... The deal is some of the first moves he did saved NOTHING in cap space. He waived Bozeman, Vonn Bell, and Hurst.....That to me doesn't feel like Firererererere was listening to Dan to a high degree. Dan didn't have a 1st rounder which was 1st overall due to the supreme suckage. He didn't have 2nd rounder this past year which was a early pick right where the talent of the 2025 was. Plus the cap was not in the best shape.... The QB deal was in deep water as well. If you factor this extreme mess and analyze the current OL, DL, WR, and RB groups..... I have. Use your normal realistic cues. Even without playing the first game of this season, you must see improvement, right?? He simply could not fix all the problems, but the problems he choose to tackle... He did so like it was the 2003 Superbowl all over again. Factor in depth and age, those groups check the difficult boxes. Most of the players are young, locked in contracts, and there *should* be depth behind the starters. He's not going to bat 1.000, his mistakes have been pointed out numerous times. IMO, he does need some props for what I feel he's done right. Trade wise he's been killing the value side- extra future 2nd, starter level CB that's 28 year old for 240 picked LB that's bounced around the league, and moved up without giving the classic herniay future picks to land two edges whom are only behind QBs on the most valued chart. He also got a early 2nd and 2 5ths for a 8 sack-a-year edge that got nearly 30 mill per.  Sure its got to play out and positive results are needed. Still if you know NFL and been watching since the herniay&gettlegut eras, you got to feel the process is on the up and up. Im not talking in typical off-season hopuim fluff either.... It's not over by any means either(please give him until the 2026 season end), maybe this is a real foundation in the making, us Panthers don't even know what that is...... This could be the first real long lasting winner than us fans have never had in 30 years and we are witnessing it....        
    • I feel like we have some depth; we just need that proven nickel. Mike Jackson is a decent #2, but ideally we'd have a proven veteran in the slot. Smith-Wade might be able to fill that role, but he's far from a sure thing.
