I'm fully prepared to go through the eye of the shitstorm, but... who would be more helpful to this team. Hardy or Jackson?

 

Hardy by a mile.  Guy can play DE at a high level for every down, and is what... 25?

 

Our front 7 is envious good.

Many still don't understand how flexible and creative teams can be with the cap if they want someone bad enough. I'm not advocating for or against Jackson, but we could absolutely free up the cap space if the team wanted him.

Are people forgetting examples like the recent Flacco contract? He's earning 20+ million a year, yet his first year cap hit was 6 million.

There are always ways to get deals done.

His contract isn't guaranteed.

Give him guaranteed $$$ at a lower number.

I think he'd do it to play with Cam.

Unless somehow, he is way closer to Cam then we thought and was willing to take a pay cut but I doubt it.

Would you take a multi million dollar pay cut to work with your best friend??, when you guys can still hang whether you work together or not?

No way he takes the kind of pay cut we would need him to take.

First, I don't think its happening, because of his contract. But if Eagles were determined to move him, and Panther's gave up a three, might they take back a RB contract or Godfrey to lessen a cap hit?

 

They definitely wouldn't take back a RB because they have 3-4 capable backs now. 

 

But they do have a need at safety. I doubt Godfrey would be involved though. Player for player type trades are sorta rare.

Not to mention... Godfrey is an average safety at best making far above average money..

      DJ Moore trade talk

      By TD alt · Posted

      I mean, if Moore really wants out, then it would behoove the Bears to make it happen sooner than later. X is a lot younger and cheaper, and may be a better fit for Johnson's musings than a disgruntled, unnecessary, overpaid vet. If they can dump his salary and maybe get a fourth or so in return, it may be worth it to them. As for development, I'm not concerned. You're talking about a seeming bust, a day three guy and a UDFA. They are developing relative to their ceilings. I doubt any of them will ever command the coverage, money, or the respect that Moore has acquired. He's a tier above them. Yes, even X.

      OK, now it's time to discuss a couple of yesterday's problems. Let's talk "Evero."

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      IMO, if Ceedee plays against us, the game probably goes the other way. Same with Tyreek Hill and the Dolphins. Our team just isn't designed to beat teams with two high level receivers like that. But when you look at the league, how many teams really have two guys of that caliber?  There's nothing wrong with defensive adjustments, but sometimes I think a lot of fans want Evero to call a different play like a game on madden, and defensive football just isn't like that. That said, I thought we did a much better job this season against the Cowboys of flipping Jaycee and at least making them work for it, opposed to last season when they literally just lined CeeDee up on the other side of the field every single snap.  For us to just straight up switch to consistent man coverage, or a different zone, or whatever, we likely would consistently need different personnel on the field. Doing it a few times a game is a gamble and can work, but if we consistently run man coverage against the Cowboys, eventually a RB is going to beat a linebacker, or something of that nature with our personnel. Part of the reason Evero likes this scheme is that, while we have our defaults and presets, what we do is very multiple, and you can do a lot of different things pre and post snap. We are a challenging defense to read. But as you said, if guys are getting beat, it doesn't really matter what you call.
