agarcia34 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 (edited) Would be scared to see what his contract would be if he came to Vegas. Your already over paying for his name even if he would sign to a good team. Would be a ridiculous contract Edited February 24, 2021 by agarcia34 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Raiders make no sense for Watt if he's trying to win a ring. What could he possibly add to his career in Vegas? $$$ among other things.

oakdb36 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 If money doesn't matter, he'll sign with GB. I think GB won't be close to what the others can offer though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not him. I actually don't think he should sign for us either if I were him. But who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But who knows. We need to focus on getting the QB situation under control. For any players that uses winning or playing for a potential playoff team they need to see that we have the most essential player locked up and ready to go along with the coaches and front office having a singular plan. Money is generally the #1 factor but you have to sell the player on the city and the organization. You want Carr meeting with potential FAs and them asking if he is going to be the starter next year. Like it or not Carr is our ambassador to potential FAs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But who knows. I could see JJ Watt becoming a Raider. Didn't Gruden say he wanted an alpha leader on the defense, and Gruden loves big name future hall of famers. JJ could be looking for one last pay day, and the income tax rates could come into play in this situation. I hope we get Leonard Williams or a younger Edge but I could see the possibility of JJ being that Witten type of pickup. Of course bigger role and more money. Depends if JJ wants to get paid or ring chase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Money is always king in this world I think him asking for a release clearly shows its not about money but about other things (enjoying your workplace & wanting some succes). I also don't think its just about getting a ring, otherwise he would have allready been signed up for a mini 1 year deal at the Bucs. And even if it is just about the money i would stille expect not much net difference between the best offer and offers from contenders. Net as in after taxes and taking into account that playing for contenders will improve his chances of continuing to get high $ endorsement deals. Sure there will be a difference that is massive for 99% of the population, but i would be shocked to see Watt sign with the Jets because he would make $30 mil net in the next 2 years over going to the Packers or Bills for $25 million net. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnlyGlove Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 I like the look of Adam Butler from NE for DT, pair him with Dalvin Tomlinson from NYG. draft a DT in the second day. Get Takk back in over Nassib or Key. D-line starts to look miles better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
