swoosh Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 For a 6th round pick, Gage is exactly what the Falcons could have hoped for. Very solid as a #3 type weapon, depending on the offense. He was raw coming out of college and at only 26, his best years are still ahead of him. Figured some team would be able to outbid the Falcons. Interested to see the terms here. Wish him well, I enjoyed watching him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally he dropped too many balls for me to be happy with but his effort is relentless and his style was fun. I'm hoping Tampa backed the truck up for like 12-14 mill, but I doubt they did haha.

FalconFan13 Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 If it's less than 9 mil a year im gonna be pretty upset the Falcons couldn't bring him back for that. But i wouldn't give him more than 11+ mil a year and anything over that imo is an overpay. He was solid and liked here as he put in good effort but he did drop alot of balls at times and always dealt with some small injury. The injury thing is probably because he goes all out for a catch jumping in the air twisting his body and landing hard alot. The effort is much appreciated but not always a smart thing to do all the time for longevity and reliability lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Hooper at 750 yards and a few TD's under 10 mil is a better value than us throwing 18 mil at a 900 to 100 yard receiver. To me if we can do something like this we will be ok WR - Pitts, 2nd or 3rd round pick, mid tier FA WR pickup, OZ, Darby we would be ok overall TE - Hooper, Pitts, cheap Blocking TE, cheap TE with upside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FalconFan13 Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Hmm 3 for 30 and 20 guaranteed. Thats right in the middle of what i was thinking on him. I think i would have been ok with 10 thinking it was a slight overpay but not bad. Hopefully falcons can find someone similar in talent or with more upside for around the same price or less.

Soko Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Thought they’d be in on Landry, but might be a bit out of the price range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But no one in the world thought Kirk was getting a mega deal either, WRs seem to be getting a bit extra on top this year for whatever reason. But I agree with you 7-8 would be a good signing, and 10 mil is the top end, go north of that and you can forget it. We paid 10 LOL not happy about it at all. 3 for 30? Godwin needs to be compensated properly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say this for Fontenot so far unlike TD he has his set numbers and so far they are pretty fair on what he will overpay and what he won't. Now theirs still a whole lot left in FA to still possibly overpay but i like what im seeing so far. I felt TD would overpay to get his guy more often than not at times.

An extra 3million over the contract life is pennies, especially given the fact he will likely not see the whole term. It probably had more to do with the guaranteed money, but even that is relatively minimal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why people stay in debt and don’t know what a budget is. Glad you don’t control my bank account my business or any organization’s purse strings.
