The problem is GB NEVER gives guaranteed money after the first year. Both Preston smith and davondre campbells new deals don’t have it. So what’s the motivation for Adams to sign a long term deal, when he’s already guaranteed the $20 this year, if there would be no guaranteed money afterwards- especially since gb doesn’t have the cap space to give him more guaranteed money this first year if he signed long term. its an interesting dynamic of two opposing forces Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Adams doesn't want to be tagged as top FA at his position - no one does. I think GB would be cool with one year on tag and then letting him hit UFA as that would be monetarily cheaper and safer than a gigantic long term deal even if short term cap hit can be reduced. But he is going to be pissed as that puts him as FA at 30 rather than 29 and that 30 is a psychological barrier for big money deals. I think he may hold out for awhile, make a big stink and eventually play. But I am guessing he isn't there in offseason. Maybe they trade him rather than go through the drama. Not sure his trade market is that huge since you have to pay him too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dll2000 Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Good Morning football said Rodgers should dump his salary so they can sign Adams. I find those notions silly. Everyone should get as much as they can. Owners can pay entire salary cap number just from TV deals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can give Adams whatever they want if they’re willing to spend future dead cap like they did with Rodgers. It makes sense to do it for them - they’re in a title window that closes the minute Rodgers retires or leaves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dll2000 Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 So Browns are reportedly out on Watson, but it is unclear if Mayfield is going to be their guy. Not sure what is happening there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes it harder. Also he played really bad last year albeit he was hurt. Not sure it would be more than one pick unless you thought enough to extend him. To me he seems to have definite vision problems in pocket due to his size when playing closer to LOS. I know other QBs have overcome it, but I am not seeing same ability from him. If he was taller I bet he is one of better QBs in league. He is just too short I think given his abilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayfield would get the Browns that, too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe. Not from me. That Indy deal was insane btw. They HAD to trade him. Ballard was looking at getting fired over it and he was squeezing extra picks out of Wash. Rivera is not a bad coach, but completely out of his depth as a GM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
