The Stewart Situation (I know right? Never been discussed before)

Question:

If you were GM and you're sitting in Gettlemans shoes cap & player wise, would you cut Stewart in June and just take the cap hit?

I ask because I think he's great...but it's a waste having him and his contract here. Think about it this way: we cut stew and Godfrey in June and CG's savings cover the JS cap hit. I know that's not how it works but I think we need to just ditch Stewart. We're not trading him barring a restructure and we don't need him to get to 12-4.

On the unquestionably sound and well-researched afternoon program on WFNZ, the babbling moron (Mark or Marc?) personality stated, "I have heard from players that Stewart is considered to be very soft." 

 

Still, we will probably cut DWill and Stew's fate will be determined this year.  Why pay him while he is injured and cut him when he gets healthy?

I thought the idea was to not have our franchise quarterback be our leading rusher again. There are people who actually believe the solution to our run game is to cut our one RB that consistently sees the field? There are no guarantees that Stewart will ever be the same again.

 

I don't think either will get cut this year.

I wouldn't, no. I'd wait until after preseason and see if he a) makes it through healthy or b) still has enough left to play after so much nagging injuries. I wouldn't just go ahead and get rid of him now and take the hit, that puts yourself in a lose-lose situation.

You can't get any savings from cutting Stew this year. It will actually really hurt us to do that.

This is not even a topic with the way his contract is written.

No need to even talk about this.

Thread end.

You missed the point. Given its a hit and not something that saves money, would you still do it. Just asking the question.

If anyone gets cut it will be Dlo.

 

Why? DWill has done a lot more in the past few seasons then Stewart has and he has stayed healthy as well. Who would you get to replace Dwill? Barner wouldn't help much. The guy gets tossed around like a rag doll when he gets hit and Stewart can't stay healthy anymore. So releasing him would not be an option neither.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By lumbeecheraw75 · Posted

      overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
