What makes a long term deal out of the question? With the cap going up considerably In the next few years and the shitty Hurney contracts finally starting to come off the books in the next few years....why can't we sign him to say a 4 or 5 year deal with more of the money coming in the 3rd and 4th years, or something like that? I think he really wants to come here, and the more I see I think it's a real possibility.

Don't like the "I want a long term deal" part. We can't afford a long term deal.

 

Nicks already admitted the other day he will to play one 1-2 yr cheap contract to prove he can still play. I can see DG working a solution here right trying to figure out how bring him in and sign him come Tuesday. Nicks is the most likely guy we have chance at. Then keep Smith around and drafting 2 WRs  in the first 3 picks some how. That's the best option we have right now. Nicks ain't the grestest WR. But when healthy then he can be solid.

I disagree.  We have cap room and the cap is going up substantially over the next 2 years.  I think we can sign him to a long-term deal that is more reasonable this year than a 1-year deal.  Imagine a 5-year, $35 million deal. 

 

Yes, we will have to sign Cam, Luke, and Star.  But the bad deals Marty made will be falling off the books.

      Where will the wins come from? (my early predictions)

      By rayzor · Posted

      Sober. Still feeling it. I really like how the schedule is laid out for us. Perfect for a new HC and rebuilding team. Aside from the Bengals, there aren't  any good teams before the bye. Chargers will be, but they're having to figure poo out just like we are and they'll be coming here for an early game. That one is a toss up. I like our defense against them. I think we'll give the Bengals a fight, but I wouldn't put money on us winning that one. But the saints can be swept. They're beat up and just don't have much going on. They'll be at the bottom of the division. I feel like we will split with the falcons and the bucs. There's nothing scary about the raiders or that washington team. Chicago is another toss up, but they aren't scary either....not yet anyways. We're getting them early in the season so I like our chances. I especially like our defense against a rookie QB. And the broncos....boring. Giants....again, boring. Looking at this, we've got a good defensive thing going on. I think the unit will be better this year a d we're in season 2 of Evero. I like us especially against rookie QBs, and we'll have at least 3 we're facing before the bye. We come in and play smash mouth football and just keep hitting (pounding) away and I think we're competitive. It's that schedule after the bye that scares me. Hopefully by that point they've built up a lot of confidence. You get a scrappy dawg that's got some confidence and a lot of fight in him and you've always got a shot. I think that's what we'll be this year. This year isn't about winning all the games. It's about building confidence and learning what we've got to do.

      Does the Canales era have a new vibe?

      To be honest I just haven't been paying attention. I have PTSD from all these shitty Tepper hires. I'm just going to wait and see what takes the field.

      What is extremely rare?  Taking a young quarterback when you have a starter?  If that is what you are referring to, at one time it wasn't that rare.
