LinderFournette Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Wonder the terms but if its a multi-year deal maybe he takes linders spot next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk if I like Shatley being the guy though its almost a given linder will get hurt again at some point. shatley doesnt seem to do a bad job when hes called upon. while it would hurt us depth wise lets not forget we could draft someone to replace linder next year but at worse shatley can be a stop-gap solution. FWIW hes graded by pff as the 26th best center and he was colored on it as average. could do better but we could do worse for a starter. im just trying to make room to keep guys like ramsey and Ngakoue. IMO jack can walk at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Linder is healthy all 16 games it'll be tough to cut ties despite his injuries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Linder is healthy all 16 games it'll be tough to cut ties despite his injuries it wouldnt be all that hard granted hes playing well but we can only have so much money tied into the OL. i mean were looking at 6 million due for cann in 2020, norwell getting 14.5, linder making 8 million. somethings gotta give there. for a reference point we have only 38/39 players under contract for the 2020 season and we are already at 12 million cap room left.

Well 20M of that is Dareus who is absolutely not playing for that salary. So really it's 37/38 with 32M cap space. Still 8M for Linder is a bit rich, and I would not be opposes to drafting a mid round guy there to be depth and possibly take over. If theres a position in that OL where mid to late round picks can develop into starters, it's at Center Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tugboat Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Good signing. You want to continue to lock up and retain this sort of quality depth who can play. Especially when it comes to versatile OLinemen who are familiar with the system and can play in multiple spots and even start in a pinch...at a low cost.

As good as Jalen and Yann are, I doubt either player gets $20M the first year of their contract. Thats QB money. So the space you free up from letting Dareus go is simply eaten up by one of these deals (likely Jalen's) plus a bit of Yan's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
