I hope it was made up for so many reasons. Although Watson has a No Trade Clause, so...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either that or the Texans using the rumor mill to try and generate heavier offers. Albright already weighed in that we aren't as interested as the national media is reporting. I'd put more weight on that than a dozen of these talking heads trying to create conversation with random stuff that can never be corroborated. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could very well have the best offer out there. I also could see us moving on to another guy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s almost always paying top of the market prices for good, sometimes, great, but rarely elite players. I get it, it’s a tool, use it like any other, but holy hell man. 45 million for Larry O?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly not a sustainable way of building a roster for the most part we’ve done bargain bin deals outside of JJ3/Conklin/Hooper tying large amounts of cap space to guys like Kirk or Larry O is crazy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conklin’s number is fair, he just can’t stay healthy. Hooper was a huge goof. 2 minutes ago, zelbell said: tying large amounts of cap space to guys like Kirk or Larry O is crazy Yeah, I just don’t see guys like that moving the needle at all. Like, is Larry better than Hicks? Idk man lol. I doubt it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownie man Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 We made an offer. That’s a lot more than people thought we’d do. but I’m cool on trading Newsome. I’ll pass on that. Hard pass. Get ready for a huge receiver draft. I want 3 guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nugpimpen Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 With the cap set to explode in two years, i'm not surprised these deals are that large. If the cap weren't going to rise dramatically, these deals would seem even worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People say this all the time, and while it has some truth, signing middling players to expensive contracts is always bad business. It never looks good in hindsight. 2 minutes ago, brownie man said: We made an offer. That’s a lot more than people thought we’d do. did we? Or did some dude just say we did on Twitter? That looked like the fakest of fake news of the day tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
