    Talk of releasing Jones. Sad but true -- adios amigo

    The only rival to that is Detroit during the Matt Millen era. I cried when they fired him.

    Joe Barry OUT AS DC

    Yes and no. Disclaimer: I have only coached my 2 sons hockey teams and my goddaughters t ball team, no Lombardi here, although our teams were really good.

    For both questions, I would think less confident. Last year we had a healthy (for 1 game) LT that has been one of the best for a long time. We don't have that anymore.

    "Gute handed Jones to Minnesota for a difference of a mere 1 million or less than 1/2 of 1 % of the salary cap. Jones turned down 6 million and signed for 7 million." I don't think it is that simple, but I am sure some of the cap knowledgeable members will help. I believe we saved about 5...

    I just read that we traded our future HOF QB last year for a draft pick or 2. Can anyone verify that for me?;) More importantly, knowing the plethora of RB's in FA, why would anyone trade for a $12m contract when they can wait for him to be released and sign for just over half that?

    I agree with the move, but like many others here, he was one of my favorites. Sad to see him go.

    The GM has to be able to not only keep the current team relevant, but make sure long term there are replacements and depth. With 5 in the first 91 picks, we have exactly that chance to build solid depth and future starters/rotational guys. I think we may have a top 3 GM on our hands.

    Preston Smith Restructures 2024...saves $2.4M BUT Sack Incentives Added

    I thought we cut him because he was hurt his 3rd year and had a big $ if we kept him.

    A Jordan Love Contract

    Everyone needs to take Love out of the equation. His agent will work out what he thinks the value market is, and between that number and the team's number, the negotiations start.
