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.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.

      I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.

      Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
