ravishingone Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 (edited) I really think it comes down to 2 moves for Brady to be satisfied. I ll assume Jensen, Gronk, and Godwin are re signed and they lose Cappa. 3 potential replacements for Cappa- Leverett, Hainsey, and possibly re sign Stinnie. Do they re sign Lenny or who is the replacement? Answer at WR3. Looking back on the year, I do wonder if Brady was not happy about not going after OBJ. AB just wasn t acting up before the Jets game. May be he feels annoyed because he felt the organization was not doing everything to win a title. Or he felt the organization should have just paid his incentives to keep him from imploding. Looking back before the Rams game was there more worry about the OL or the lack of weapons to attack the defense? Just speculation on my part.

bucsfan333 Posted January 25, 2022 Author Share Posted January 25, 2022 I don't think it really comes down to anything other than whether he and his family decide he should play another year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. I expect his decision publically available shortly after the SB. I would be surprised if this turns into a GB and Favre situation.

ravishingone Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 *IF* Brady retires, it is good to reflect how the Bucs have been linked to big names QBs who came available. First. Brett Favre leaving GB. Bruce Allen thought the deal was done. Dom was pushing hard to acquire Jay Cutler from DEN. Of course, Brady leaving the Pats. So when BA mentions "Door 2" he isn't deciding between Gabbert and Trask. Also, he has the full backing of the organization to think big. No doubt in my mind Rodgers is option 1 behind "Door 2". Will it happen if Brady retires? No clue. I'm confident Greenburg would find a way around the cap. Example, might cost them not re signing Jensen besides Cappa not returning. Instead of franchising Davis, let him test the maket then hope to re sign him long term to lower his cap hit initially. Notice, I did not mention Godwin. He's getting re signed long term in any scenerio. So with all this written, it is basically guaranteed now Brady is returning. You can thank me later. 😀 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious how this all breaks down in dead money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
