ThatJaxxenGuy Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 (edited) Aj Green signed for 8 mil. I was really flirting with that idea, but Hard pass at that price Edited March 17, 2021 by ThatJaxxenGuy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to tell what the market is for those guys though, I could see that process dragging out till after the draft. Clowney will get a small-ish contract this year and everyone will scream “why didn’t we get him for that!” And then he will stink for 7 games and go to IR.... repeat yearly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wackywabbit Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 I don't like letting Fort go for that bit of cap, at all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope that's it, because if we're talking pure performance Fort has been such a gift for us and he's certainly the superior player to Board(Who we just resigned).

M.10.E Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 (edited) I mean, I just don't get it unless we're about to have another shoe drop. He's better than Board on defense and also plays ST well. Chris Board may be the new coach favorite on the team. Edited March 17, 2021 by M.10.E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SalvadorsDeli Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Yeah it's a weird one. We only saved what, like 500k by signing Board instead of Fort? Could be a vote of confidence in Malik Harrison too. If they like him and Queen to dominate the defensive snaps, then Board fits better than Fort in terms of having a settled role as a blitzer/dime safety. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We invested significant draft capital on Queen and Harrison so I think it's time for them step it up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Board struggled in sub packages last year according to most observers. I know Ken McKusick in particular had real issues with him. He was probably our worst LB from the bunch. So this might be a move we don't have clarity on for some time or until the next domino falls. 🤷♂️ IDK, it's a weird one. I'd expect Fort to take a back seat as Queen and Harrison continue to ascend, but we got burned the last time we rolled with our two young options(Young & Peanut) and Fort was a savior on the heels of that decision. So I'm a bit surprised they'd roll the dice again and let such a stable, productive, and reliable option go like this. Best wishes to him if he doesn't come back on a cheaper deal though. He's made some amazing plays for us the past two years. Certainly has come a long way from Lamar snatching his ankles in that joint practice against the Eagles and definitely overcame the journeyman club carousel hell he was in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SalvadorsDeli Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Rodney Hudson traded to the Cards, so I guess we can kiss that dream goodbye, even if it was unlikely from the get-go. Very interesting to see Arizona as another team deciding you don't have to choose between WR's and OL's when building around your mobile franchise QB. Very interesting indeed...
