Travelle was excellent this year. No injuries. Great play and you never hear to much about the guy. However.... He is getting paid too much damn money. Now I know JR said their will be no major F/A acquisitions in the off season and I'm not saying he will need restructuring this season but something seems a little off here.

He made $7,400,000 this year and is currently the 9th highest paid player on the roster behind names like Johnson, Williams and Beason... The end year is 2013 and it was a 6 year 35 million dollar contract. Now we have a few big signing coming up after this year like Jonathon Stewart and Steve Smith. Even if we lose/restructure Otah is anyone else a little concerned? He is 30 years old and has plenty of years left but the offensive line is really starting to concern me. We have no permanent RG and questions at both tackles. Meh. Sorry late night rant.

Wonder what we can get for him via trade? He may also be open to a restructured contract.
In my opinion he is our 2nd best player on the line behind Kalil and tied with Otah (when he wants to play and skip the Bojangles...)... So I do wonder what we could get in a trade but if he's gone....

Healthy solid line = :cam:

Stank ass line = :jc:

If not he very well could be done imo. He rated out as a way below average G and he gets payed like a LT. I love the dude but he might not be here come TC.

Bernadeu seems to play well on the left side of the line also Garry Williams is also pretty solid. Which may mean Wharton is the odd guy out, idk how much he accounts for the cap though.

What if he won't restructure? I never hear much about him so I'm relatively clueless as to his personality and demeanor...

He's a team first guy, one of the ones who paid for this past off season's work out. I think he'd gladly do it. Not many guys expect their contracts to go to full term, it hardly ever happens. That's also a reason total contract value is very misleading.

Anyway you look at it he's getting paid a lot of money. This isn't Madden Franchise mode.

      First 4 NFL starts - Tyler Shough

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      Has anybody actually said anything of that sort? (if they did, I missed it) I get why some folks rely on stats. I don't, and honestly I'm not sure why people keep trying to convince me I should. (it ain't gonna happen) 😕 Consistency is my big thing too, and the lack of it is why I want to move on from Bryce. But again, that's an argument I make without denying that he can indeed play in (and yes, win) NFL games. Hating bad QB play is fine. Denying when you see good QB play is silly. Let's be real for a second... This may not be you specifically, but there are some folks for whom Bryce can do absolutely nothing to win their approval. Some are always gonna want a bigger / stronger / faster / more athletic (in some cases, Newtonesque) quarterback even if Bryce does start to play consistently. At that point, they'll just shift the argument from "we can't win with Bryce" to "well, we can't keep winning with Bryce" 😖 You know all this as well as I do. So again, I want to move on from Bryce as well. I'd happily (hell, merrily) keep him as a backup, but I doubt there's a realistic path to that happening. But no matter what, I'm gonna keep my debate points based in reality, and I'm not gonna be responsive to "he just sucks" level persuasion. Is any of that unreasonable? 🤔

      Apples and oranges.   No one is coming for Jon Snow and the neutral party when they compliment Bruce when it is just normal talk about a game.  Which is the literal picture you are trying to paint above.  I mean that’s exactly what you argued. if you start a thread that is about the future of the franchise at QB going forward at QB and what we should do or are thinking! Yeah, the anti Bryce crowd is going to very vocal on that thread because the literal topic is extending Bryce and the future at QB (which is what an anti Bryce position is literally about.  Moving on.  The future) This thread? I literally called out people in their feelings wanting to make this about Bryce and their hurt feelings eroding over.  You can find where I literally calls them out go make another Bryce thread if they didn’t want to talk Saints and the most relevant thing about them.  And the thread went exactly as we all knew it would.   Bryce deserved player of the week talk for Atlanta.  I have always acknowledged his great games.  A shame there are only two

      Joe Person: Ickey is expected to be extended, Mays is someone we want to keep long term, TE, LB and OLB are our biggest needs heading into the offseason

      Then the offense will be the same up and down underperforming offense they are this year and our FO are filled with idiots.
