Either he’s genuinely staying or he looked at the situations there and didn’t fancy them. Maybe he’s being smart and wants the right HC role to come up? Mind you that’s a risk because who knows what next year has to offer.

Rumors about a job in KC maybe opening up before too long.

Would like to think we could keep Sua Opeta around as a pending FA.

Hired an interesting DB coach from Seattle.

Also an interesting Dline coach from Seahawks.

I thought Slay was setup to be a reasonable cap hit next season at like 10 mil. Avonte tough to move on from and not realize the seemingly inevitable rewards when he has a stretch of remaining healthy.

Maddox is pretty easy to move on from he is a good slot CB but he will be 28 and never can stay healthy has finished a full season once in his career.

especially when cutting or trading Maddox after June 1st saves us little over 7m

The former DC in Seattle more then just little interesting like both Seattle adds they have given us problems for years why not add them

He’s proven to be a good player is the main point I see. Don’t need injury prone players that haven’t proven they are at least worth it when they are healthy. But needing six DBs. Have Blankenship and Slay. Sidney probably not a great option this season after the injury recovery with his career arc and such. I like having a proven vet that younger guys need to actually beat out to get a job. Instead of just getting things handed to then

Plus Maddox cap hit isn’t anything crazy. Just a very reasonable price for a proven vet. Taking away the durability issues you’d love to stack your whole team with guys like that.

Have to say I believed Rocker was the coach on D that was safe. How do you have that 2022 season near breaking the all time record in sacks…then get fired the next year under clearly terrible superiors?

Fangio wants to bring in his loyal guys he’s comfortable with. But something to be said for guys that can recognize talented people regardless.

DT from Miami,Wilkins, free agent. Maybe draws interest if he liked Fangio.

He’s a strong good player. Still peaking I’d say. All comes down to price. He isn’t a difference making player enough to roll out real large dough to. A quality starting level DT that is young and can be a part of a D longer term probably going to be an expensive accusation. Gotta think he easily commands more than Fletch did and would. Wouldn’t surprise me for Rosie to over obsess over Dline though. But I’d rather spend money elsewhere. Pick up two guys that play cheaper positions. A RB and a LB perhaps. Maybe a S. Get two difference maker level players at those spots for the same price as a quality DT that isn’t looking to be anything really special.

We ranked second in depth of target. 26th in time of throw.

Pretty well explains exactly the rut our O got stuck in. Siri and Johnson seemed to have a gameplan only based on relying on Hurts big play ability.

Hurts can be the ultimate big play creator too. He’s proven that. But really didn’t see much of any O in between.

I can see how some Hurts haters will blame him for holding the ball too much. But what I saw was an O that was only giving mostly the long developing routes.

Ravens rumored to be looking to tag their pending FA DT Madubuike

9m cap hit for a slot that pretty high when we are paying Slay 11m.

And he hasn’t been healthy that’s the main point we are paying the guy 9m to maybe get him 10 games… doesn’t matter if a player is good if he isn’t available

Hurts holding the ball isn’t a new thing though 3 out of the 4 years he held the ball longer or near the longest in the nfl… even his best year our SB run he was middle of the pack at getting rid of the ball…

So it isn’t being a Hurts hater it’s just facts stop riding the dude jock and stop making excuses for the guy

We don’t save nothing on Slay do we??? Not unless we trade him after June 1st then it’s like a 1.2m savings for 2024 

But releasing him we save nothing

I watch plenty of games where Hurts opted to take the deep shot on 3rd downs when he had the underneath WR wide open which took our O off the field.

By all means our O was bad but it wasn’t all just the play callers doesn’t give Hurts this excuse card for all His bad play down the stretch

Regardless,  you save a little in 2024

Can only go by what sites say of course they aren’t 100% but sportrac for now says if we released Slay even after June 1st we get zero cap savings.

maybe there is some other language in his contract that could offset things and we save some… But right now really looking like no benefit to cutting Slay outright… Looking like a post June trade or we keep him 

Mike Macdonald(ravens DC) going to be the next HC of the Seahawks. Looking like Washington going to pick Dan Quinn as there next HC

But shows with a trade we save?  That's the thing,  the trade takes into consideration the offset immediately...because the other team immediately takes on the future salary etc.   With the release,  it obviously can't compute the player being on another team yet.  

Usually the language in the contract has the offset.  To where the player getting paid from the new team ( if picked up after a release) provides same cap relief as a trade.
