Carter is a slot guy. Hope they don't move DeJean outside.

John Metchie we hardly knew ye

Michael Carter is paid well. Sounds like DeJean is moving outside, which is yuck. Just don't like this if that is the end result. We'll see what happens.

Let's see some tweets showing how Carter is actually the best cb in football now.

When him and Devonta reunited at practice. Haven’t seen him since.

I don’t love the idea of moving DeJean full-time to outside corner tbh… I think he can be good, but not elite like he is at slot.

Mine was probably watching him and Bigsby fail to field all those kickoffs against the Rams.

Carter is more than likely a depth piece. I don’t see them moving Dejean outside full time. Fangio has talked many times about the desire to keep him inside

Well i thought cornerback would be the spot they’d make a trade as the price would be the most reasonable

Don't like the idea of dejean outside

Well, he costs us next to nothing. His 2025 cap impact should be $1,191,176.47 for us -- 9/17th of his salary ($898,676.47 which is 9/17th of $1,697,500 base) and $32,500 bonus for each game he is active (9 games is $292,500). $1.384mm of his 2026 comp is guaranteed, with $4.016mm set to become guaranteed on the 5th day of the 2026 league year. I don't see us keeping him in 2026 and 2027 with cap numbers over $11 million, so it's a rental I bet. So $1.2mm this year, $1.384mm of dead money in 2026.

Fangio just said yesterday it was easier to find a slot than an outside but they just hadn't done it yet

A Joe Douglas deal it is. Getting a slot was what l kinda thought. Almost inevitable. Still got time for another move. They could really use 2 guys.

Thoughts? Is Ertz beginning to make a case for HOF consideration?

I brought this up a while back and it seemed like the majority thought he didn’t have much chance but it’s starting to catch on a bit in the media. I’m still not positive but I think he has a shot.

Just now, Sack that QB said:

Oh wow. That's huge. I'm assuming he didn't give up the $1.384mm that became fully guaranteed on the 5th day of the 2025 league year, but if he did, then no cost in 2026 if we move on.

Why not just do the Roger McCreary trade if we wanted a guy inside. I like him better than Carter as well

Someone can break down his contract better, but hes on a 3/30M deal. Highest paid nickel in the league. Certainly not depth.

Could have kept Rodgers cheaper and left DeJean where he belongs.

Vic was just saying he doesnt want to move DeJean. I wonder if he will even play Howies 30 million dollar man.

The Roseman in season special.

He gave up money just to get off the Jets. Lol. From highest paid nickel to costing us no money?

See above -- depending on whether he waived the $1.384mm for 2026 that is fully guaranteed, it's a 2 year cost of $2.575mm ($1.19mm this year, $1.384mm dead money in 2026) or just one year, $1.19mm. No big financial commitment.

I thought John Metchie was for next year. Oh...

We'll see if this is the only move they make at CB.

Really have not liked Howie's non draft pick moves in 2025. Bigsby is looking pretty good in recent weeks, but aside from that, I dislike almost every move he's made that wasn't a draft pick. I don't think this move is terrible in and of itself, but I don't like it if DeJean moves to full time outside corner. He's so Fing good in the slot.
