Agreed, there’s no differentiation between OT and OG as far as the tag goes 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So any OL that gets franchised gets the same designation, whether they're a tackle, guard, or center. Needs to be changed. Needed to be changed 10 years ago tbh.

He did but the roster is going to be super tight this year, so he be one of those casualties. We’re gonna actually see some good guys cut from the team, instead of keeping crap guys cause we need to fill out the roster. So hard to get use to this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he going to be a RB, are we going to carry 4 RBs. Are we going to cut a WR that we like, we have OBJ Jarvis Higgins DPJ Schwartz Hodge, we cutting Hodge to carry Felton? Are we carrying 7WRs? Do we cut Jano? I think we really need a FB like him IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NFL might have a nba style cap spike coming soon with the Amazon money coming next year and fans back in the stands. So it might not be that crazy of a number.

zelbell Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Is the Transition Tag an option for Wyatt? would basically give us right to first refusal and see what he’s worth on the open(ish) market Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWil23 Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Tbh, I know this is unpopular, but I’d let Teller walk and get a third round comp pick for him. He plays a very replaceable position from an analytics standpoint and the difference between him and a replacement level RG or slightly better likely won’t net more wins. Lots of guys to pay yet, and if he won’t take a discount then I’m not holding my breath here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I would love to keep him, his position puts him very low on the totem pole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats fair, and at the same time this next offseason/draft is going to be freaking huge for us. We need 1 more really good draft of guys to step in and learn and be the guys of the future so we dont skip a beat when all of these guys like Teller, Clowney, OBJ, Landry, Njoku, Bitonio ect leave the team. I know losing talent is inevitable and this season all the chips are in the middle--but I just hope to position ourselves like other great franchises and have the young bucks already waiting to step in and take over. After this year when we lose a lot of talent and pay guys like Ward/Baker---we are going to need to rely a ton on guys with rookie contracts to contribute. Guys like Bryant, JOK, Delpit, DPJ, Felton, Togiai, Wilson, Lecounte, Newsome are going to need to be ready to take over.

NudeTayne Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Wouldn't we rather sign Teller than extend Bitonio/Tretter in a season or two at 70% if per season of what Teller will get now? If he's reasonable in his asking, I at least consider it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's reasonable in his asking, I at least consider it. I think I'd rather let Teller get a big deal next season elsewhere if that's what he'll get. Then you get one more season of Bitonio and Tretter in 2022 to evaluate how big of contracts we will need to dish out to keep them on the back end of their careers. It seems like the safer route. Every guard we plugged in last year performed well enough, even if Teller's freakish physicality added to our run game. I'm less confident in replacing our starting center with Nick Harris/whoever. Also I feel like even if Bitonio's age starts to show, the guy has almost always been healthy and is another coach on the field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
