Dr LBC Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Um... ok. So the Giants end up paying his roster bonuses and we don't take the cap hit on that. If this nets us their 2nd, I won't complain. I'm just a shade confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamRod Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Complete overhaul of the linebackers. Barron likely gone too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Car_Ramrod Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 We better get a second out of this and find some thumpers in the middle. Just wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boboso20 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 It’s the Giants 4th and 6th were sending Tree and a 7th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StLunatic88 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 We are just shedding money, makes me feel like we are gearing up for something. Especially adding all these draft picks as well (which would supplement the rest of the roster with young cheap guys) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr LBC Posted March 7, 2018 Author Share Posted March 7, 2018 Last offseason was remaking the offense, this offseason is letting Wade remake the defense however he see fit. As long as Donald gets locked up and this means Joyner gets locked up to play FS, I'm willing to put my faith in Wade because he's done it time and time again. Tree's $7m roster bonus he was due (I believe due either tomorrow or the next day, since roster bonuses usually pay out the 3rd day of the new league-year) will pass on to the Giants, so that frees up another $7m in cap space which should give us the flexibility to lock down at least one of AD or LMJ.

Boboso20 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 We supposedly offered Tree to the Chiefs too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My gut - and the youth on this roster - tells me he wants the flexibility of being able to move around and go get specific guys they like rather than fret about worrying if they'll fall to them. Or, he's accruing assets to try and trade back into the 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BStanRamFan Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 How much cap space did we save for this? My roommate is a Giants fan and said we might be eating some of it. I believe there is a plan, but we are going to lose Quinn, Ogletree, likely Tru, likely Barron, likely Barwin all in one offseason. Peters is the addition. How much can we fill via FA ? Just in shock right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, he's accruing assets to try and trade back into the 2nd. Im good with either approach. Ive seen a few mocks recently with guys falling into the 17-18-19 range that I would be screaming for us to go get on Draft Day (Vea, Davenport, Edmunds, whomever it is that strikes your fancy) I also wonder if we are setting up a Cap situation that allows us to be a landing spot for some Free Agents that will be going with 1 year deals? Either for reestablishment of their Market Value (DaQuan Jones, Allen Robinson) or veteran guys ring chasing who only need this years money guaranteed (Bowman, Talib, Derrick Johnson) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have faith in what Wade Philips can do with young talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because that clearly was the expectation when bringing in McVay, you could tell by the contracts we were giving out. But we are suddenly really really good. So now we have to pivot to contending now, not in 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
