The veteran tight end is re-signing with the Packers on a two-year deal worth $8 million, according to multiple reports.
There are, however, conflicting reports on Lewis’ guarantees. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Lewis has $4 million in guaranteed money, but NFL Media’s Tom Pelissero reports the deal includes $2.1 million guaranteed.
Nope on to the draft!any number 1 WRs left?
The market is the ultimate way to test value.Another player who went out, looked around at what Free Agency had to offer and came back to a place he knew would be good for him and he'd be appreciated.
Because very little of his money is guaranteed, this year or next. So it would be a trade and restructure, which would benefit both parties.I see a lot of posters are thinking we are going to trade for JG. How do we take on his salary with around $10 million left in cap space. If he gets cut I see us going for him. But a trade looks like it is out unless we trade a player with a high cap figure in return.
The years of bad drafting and refusing to pay for big talent in free agency has left this team depleted at all levels. Since they've got the money to spend, they might as well pay retail for (theoretically) better players now rather than hoping to get lucky in the K-Mart bargain bins and late draft rounds.Bill is even out here signing multiple STers... feels like he has little intention of drafting many guys.
I think Caserio might of been the issue after all.Watching BB conduct the Free Agency orchestra has been nothing less than the performance of a maestro. Veteran roster just begging for the crescendo: its QB of the future.
That is more than likely the outcome.IMO - Pats want Jimmy but are telling SF they won't wait around forever. SF doesn't want to pay him his big salary, but he has no incentive to restructure down because he knows they'll just cut him and he can sign where he wants. Their window to be able to get anything back for him is closing as the days pass. Hence - they are inquiring about Minshew who is starter level in case they can't get a QB they want in the draft. Send a 5th for Minshew, get a 2nd for Garoppolo, save $24M in cap. Maybe swap Gilmore for Jimmy - they need a corner, and without Jimmy they have the money to pay Gilmore what he wants.
The ceiling is the running game and defense playing so well in big games that you overcome crap play from the qb. It’s possible but really hard to go all the way with.I think Lazar means current QB1 and not future QB1....
Right now I think the team’s ceiling is the 2009/2010 Jets or the 2017 Jaguars, teams that could be stacked absent the hole at QB. The advantage is that we’ve got the GOAT as HC instead of buffoons in Rex or Marrone. Of course it remains to be seen if the rest of the team actually plays like they’re stacked; at least the holes look gone though.
