Ryan Kalil Supporting Jake Delhomme

Never thought of this. I think it's a good idea, but only if he doesn't play... Sorry, I just don't think he's the second coming of a Kurt Warner. We'd prolly get him on the cheap as well. I know he loves this organization from top to bottom.

Edit: after letting it marinate for a couple minutes I think this is genius. He already has everyone's respect here... It's not like he'd be the fugin new guy, that when he talks, people will be like, why is this guy even opening his mouth? His work ethic was awesome and he will instantly gel with everybody. I can see him being in the mentoring role just because if the guy he is... I can't get his ginL press conference outta my head right now. The way he cried really got to me... Looking back, it's something we needed to do with his huge contract...

Man I think this would be a CLASSY move by Ron... I know the big cat loved him. He was over there at his house all the time. They had a great relationship.

Who started this thread? Instant swag! I think this would be a great move by the organization.

I am looking forward to those that disagree for various reasons that they will try to explain to me like I have no idea about his career...

I am 100% behind this move and really hope we do it!

I for one would welcome Jake's presence as a mentor to Cam. Would be a nice bridge from the past to the future. I mean, if you consider what we're looking for in other veteran QB's - experienced, mentor-ready, high-character guy - then why wouldn't Jake be at the top of our list?

The only reason I can see for not wanting him back would be if you think the QB we sign will actually end up playing. I've never felt that way, so as far as I'm concerned bring Jake back. I've always loved the idea.

Many here have said in the past that it's a waste of a roster spot on a guy you won't play.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
