He is on a rookie contract and good enough to bring to camp. With the exception of Adams, none of the wide receivers are guaranteed spots next year.

HighCalebR Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 If Bulaga walks do you give Elgton a shot at RT? Or are you signing a band aid and drafting high? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elgton is a guard. I don't mess with a good thing. I'd sniff around the Jack Conklin market (if he hits FA) and if that gets too high a seriously ask Veldheer if he'd play a year at say 5m. That means I've got a hole to fill in the draft though so I need to sure up WR,TE,ILB or IDL in FA so I don't go into the draft with more needs I than I can fill.

You don't think he'd be looking for the bigger payday outside if he could hack it? I'd be super leery about the Veldheer option but I guess thats as good as option C is gonna get.

If not, Billy is probably better than most other options (for 2020). I wouldn't like that move much Edited January 24, 2020 by JBURGE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boondoggle Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Any thoughts on Spriggs? Bring him back as RTO and let him work if we don't resign Bulaga or even resign him anyways as a backup/future to Bulaga (RTO) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's your starting LG for the next decade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we could just hit on a starter in the 4th that'd be greeeeat. 6 minutes ago, CWood21 said: Nope. He's your starting LG for the next decade. You dont think Elgton is looking at the difference in $$? Or we just figure out a way to assuage that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
15412 Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 (edited) Agree on Jenkins. While he's likely not the next Randall McDaniel he is a stud as a LG with an unknown ceiling at OT. I really have soured on Billy H. If he can't play inside can he really be better at OT? Didn't Denver try him there? He's in my coyote house. I would guess we still have a leash on Spriggs for a reason. If it doesn't cost much to bring him to camp by all means do so. Expect nothing. Hopefully we can re-sign Bulaga AND bring back Veldheer. In the time they had both were impressive. If we lose Bulaga, OT becomes mi numero uno need. Edited January 24, 2020 by 15412 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elite OG money is $13M. If you're a top 10 OG, you're getting $10M+ easily. Elite RT is getting $15M+. Top 10 RT money is $7M+. There's better money to be had at OG than RT.

Brit Pack Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Choices for me are: 1) Go young and expensive and get Jack Conklin in (if you can) -$15m per season 2) Go cheap and keep Veldheer -$5m per season 3) Keep the status quo and keep Bulaga -$10m per season The thing I have with Bulaga is the idea of better getting rid early than a year late, especially with his injury history.

The pay for guards has gone up exponentially the last few years. There's a bigger premium on interior pressure. You can always scheme away from the outside pass rushers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
