Genuinely curious. I'd imagine this had less to do with money and more to do with the damn good culture going on here.

It's easy for them to deny, something his agent never did. He just wasn't ever staying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albeit, that was under different management but the owner has stayed the same. Now, I wouldn’t pay Scherff because it’s too much money to dedicate to a guy who can’t stay healthy but this team is going to miss him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully his contract is the highest ever for the position so we get a decent comp from him. His health and questionable play for me was enough to not want them to pay him top dollar, but it isnt my money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as this team isn’t winning consistently, the leaks will occur. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aceinthehouse Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I also say Scherff was good, but never great. I think he was overrated to be quite honest. He also has an injury history, that I'm glad we didn't committ too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A TRAIN 89 Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Some of the money being thrown around for players is wild. Rivera is better off being aggressive in the discount bin. Mid-tier players on short-term deals. Big money free agents rarely work. Not just here in Washington, but everywhere. Off topic, but they should definitely trade down in 1st round to recoup more picks. Especially if they are targeting WR in the first round. There are plenty. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I would not argue with a top-end addition at FS. The Brandon Scherff deal reminds me of the Andrew Norwall deal for the same Jags for a similar player.

aceinthehouse Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I know we got money to spend for FA's. Apparently, were 1 of 3 teams sniffing around Safety Marcus Williams (saints). The Jets & Lions being the other 2. He's being rumored to command anywhere from 12-16m a yr. He's a good player, but that's ridiculous. I'd rather shoot for Kyle Hamilton or draft one in the 2nd Rd. And pour our resources in LBer, TE possibly & O-line if necessary. Hell, honestly. Id rather call up Arizona & see what they want for S/LB Isaiah Simmons.

e16bball Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 More inertia from Ron and the Inside-The-Box Boyz. There’s just absolutely no creativity with this FO. There were options for them at DT, largely related to having depth and a good young reserve like Settle at the position — specifically, trading Payne or trading/cutting Ioannidis to free up financial resources and to potentially bring back some draft assets to recoup what they gave up for Wentz. Especially because I don’t see how you can justify paying Payne after you paid Allen and hope to pay Sweat/Young down the road. But instead, as usual, it’s the straight-line approach. Nothing to rock the boat or shake things up. Nothing to get ahead of an impending problem (the DL salary crunch) and try to solve it a year early instead of a year late. Just the typical approach of waiting until they’re absolutely forced to make a decision, and then being disappointed to see that their hands are tied. Just like with Scherff. It’s just a very .500 approach. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
