And, what's more likely IMO, is that we trade OBJ for Godwin and then re-sign Godwin to a big deal. I don't know that it happens, but it would be more likely. That's a little pie-in-the-sky for me. I'd be absolutely shocked if we were able to swing that somehow. OBJ's trade value is not what people think it is. I think we would be lucky to get a 4th and a 6th for him, tbh. He's got a bloated salary, is perceived as a drama queen, and is approaching 30 and has had several lower body injuries. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps so, but TB12 wants him, and after this year, I wouldn't be surprised to see the "push" of the cap money with a Godwin/OBJ deal. Granted, I'm not counting on it, but it wouldn't shock me.

Really good energy and played hurt and never slacked. Way to prioritize veteran leadership Edited March 9 by MSURacerDT55 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I feel like he's a splash playmaker, not a consistent presence. He flashes, but doesn't usually play a complete 4 quarter game. I know most interiors don't, but that's why I wouldn't pay him what he's making currently. I feel like you can find what he offers between 2-3 cheaper options in a rotation.

Cheaper options aren't always the best way to go, we obviously value chemistry in the locker room, they'll for sure restructure his contract and probably draft his successor (in addition to having Elliot) And who cares if he flashes, if you pay close attention, he makes those flash plays when we need him the most, I'll take that 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If he's really a great locker room guy and a hard worker off the field, sure. Let's keep him around. I don't even hate the idea of keeping him around. I just think if we needed to create money somewhere, his contract would have been one to look at. I feel like he was probably the biggest reason we lost that Raiders game, when I went back and rewatched it. He got his lunch eaten all game long and looked like he had conceded defeat after the 3rd quarter. That's when I kind of gave up on Richardson as a long-term part of this team. However, if he really is a hard worker and a team guy, definitely should keep him. 1 minute ago, MSURacerDT55 said: And who cares if he flashes, if you pay close attention, he makes those flash plays when we need him the most, I'll take that You are right. He would flash in opportune times and could actually generate interior pressure. That's valuable in the NFL. I guess I want a more consistent player in there, but those guys are incredibly hard to find in this league. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
