What to do with Isaiah Wynn

[Pape]

The thing that gets me is how could you be this bad in a Contract year?? Really hope he's saving his money.

he needs a tip or two from Agholor on how to maximize a contract year...

Nothing… let him walk after this season if you can’t trade him.

I think this as well... If they are stuck with the Cap Hit hes still probably more useful on the roster as a backup than cutting him and having to sign a street FA as a backup?

 

[Froob]

What they should have done is not picked up his option and not traded Mason.

But they can't put the toothpaste back in the tube...

Maybe they can trade Wynn but who replaces him? Cannon? They just sent him back to the PS.

Or could have re-signed Karras. I'd happily take Karras or Shaq over Wynn.

If they can trade him, there is no cap hit... its literally saving 100% of the balance of the contract because its fully guaranteed...

To me, it's the instances that even a total non-expert like myself can see him costing us points and killing drives. Every single game, you can point to at least 2 drives that were successful before suddenly going kaput from him missing blocks or getting penalties. He wasn't an all-pro before but you could win with him. He wasn't this bad. Something is off.

To add to what @archstanton543, said, it was idiotic of Bill to pick up the option of a mediocre player who landed on IR majority of his career, then trade a G who was actually dependable for them.

Mason wasn't great for us last year and ask Tommy how he's doing down there in TB.

Also, we had no choice in picking up his option, Cannon wasn't on the team and we all saw how Herron looked at RT.

Onwenu is better than Mason, just ask TB.

Imagine if he was @ LT no forget about imagining .

Should have re-signed Karras then. Was great for us. Not sure he's been great for Cincy but he was very good for us and gives us depth for Andrews.

I didn't think Mason was that great, but he was way more deserving to stay than Wynn. Wynn is one of those rare players that got rewarded for absolutely no reason.

 

[PatsFan2]

Trent Brown is one of if not the Best LT in the game right now.

From what I heard, they tried, but were outbid by Cincy. I think next year, we're looking at a Brown/Strange/Andrews/Hines/Onwenu. Would like to upgrade Andrews, but he is what he is.....but as is, with Cannon in there at RT, I believe we still have a top O-Line in the league.

That situation with him worked out great, nobody is willing to guarantee him much money.

Yeah, I think the issue with Mason is pass blocking, with Wynn it's attitude/motivation. I would have thought on a contract year, he'd be super motivated to perform his best. Games 1-3 he wasn't horrible, but game 4 was an absolute disaster!!!

Regarding BB I guess you can fool yourself when you shop for the groceries too. I would have walked away empty handed.

By the way, who else do you think gets traded by the deadline? Depending on their record, I'm leaning towards Harris going to a contender allowing Rham to take over.

Not going to lie I really like Harris.

For the value, there's no question he's the best.

I think they will move a receiver, probably Bourne or Agholor to make room for Thornton reps.

Honestly, I’d like to see them trade anyone who won’t be on the team long term. Agholor and Wynn would be great to move. Not sure they can move Harris since playing Rhamondre without a quality back up is playing with fire (if they dealt Harris and Rham goes down there is no starting caliber back on the team).
