Mitchell, Ginn may hit the market

Dammit!

Dont let Mitchell leave. We made a mistake before by letting Marlon McCree go. Dont do the same with Mitchell.

Im fine with letting Ginn go. Hes a no3, not a no2.

Just for speculation only, Calvin Pryor in the 1st now if Mitchell aint retain?

You're fine with letting our best return man since Smith did it go? And at this point we don't even have a #1 so #3 is fine

Let's say Person knows something--anyone can say on a Saturday that it is not looking good by Tuesday when they have had the entire offseason to sign these guys.  However, I will play along.

 

Gross leaving may have impacted these decisions.  Finding a LT is more important that a S and a one-trick pony WR. 

 

Mitchell and Ginn agreed to one-year deal to showcase their talents hoping to get a good deal.  We didn't commit to them for more than that year, so there is no reason to expect loyalty to us.

 

Let's look at the positives--Mitchell was a bit of a loose-cannon, one-dimensional safety and we can find another.  His value is escalated because he was a surprise starter who performed well enough to start.  He was not a star.  Nor was Ginn.

 

If we do not re-sign Ginn, it could alter our first round pick choice.  Maybe Beckham Jr over Jordan Matthews, for example.

Someone else can do Ginn's job on ST. You dont overpay for him just bc hes a fine returner, but average WR.

The dude was arguably our best receiver last year... Did you even watch? His deep threat was underutilized because of our offensive scheme but it allowed smitty and Olsen to get open many times.

Yeah cause we have such a huge talented crop of receivers right now. We can afford to be picky.

You rather use that money that youre going to give Ginn for a relaible wr: Tate or Roberts.

Ive never said we were good at WR. But, Ginn is def not going to solve the answer. Im sure a lot of wr on the street can match Ginn's 500 yd season in 2014 if thats what youre worry about.

    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.  
    • They will still be a playoff team but they aren't contenders anymore IMO. They won't be able to spend like they have when they went to a SB and proved he couldn't carry a win at that level with a really good team around him. Now he is going to have to do it with less to spend around him. They just locked in to being a playoff bound team that's going to be a known speed bump for whoever will represent the NFC in the SB.
    • Hmm. I think he'll live up to it. Last year, about half of his team was on IR it seems, at one time or another. Year before, Super Bowl appearance. Year before that, playoff run after being third on the depth chart and being pressed into service. Is he one of the greatest in the game right now? Nope. No chance of that. Is he in the top 10 going into next season? Pretty good chance of that.  Would 20 or more teams in this league love to have the guy as their starting QB. Most likely so. He's a good QB who can implement his coach's game plan to a T and has both the confidence of and confidence in his teammates. That'll take you a long way in this league if you've got the right cast around you, and he does.
