paco Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Dumb question.... but was Jones a cap casualty? I wish I checked a day or two before they updated OTC, but if I am reading it right, that is a 1.3 million savings. Considering they need to carry over every dollar they can, maybe they figured they could go cheaper with less drop off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike030270 Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 It's disappointing. On draft day they said he was as good or better than Lattimore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohio State has just a edge in that department so I would never believe it, lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way the bonus would count. It was already paid and is prorated. They eliminate the base (I think I saw this year was 1.3, but whatever), freeing up an extra million to roll over.

Robmarina9 Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Well, Douglas in particular is better off . Miller, never saw that he had any spark. Jones is now going to Jaguars.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid had a story that made you root for him. Played bad and good at times, but was good value and belongs in the league just as a backup or maybe as a safety. Seems he was better suited to play in zone coverage. The guy knows how to play the ball and get turnovers but the problem is he was left on an island too often and didnt have the speed to stay with WRs. Wouldn't surprise me if he is a solid player elsewhere if they use him right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree that they need to carry over every dollar they can into next year but didn’t we give james a raise to be about a million in base as well though? Depends who you say got his slot on the roster I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Road to Victory Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 One of the worst parts about cutting Cindy Jones is that we could’ve traded the pick we used on her and the pick we used used on Donnel Pumphrey to trade up and draft Dalvin Cook. Can’t believe Howie wouldn’t make that trade. Everyone here wanted that. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manz2821 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Such disappointing picks. Jones especially. Draft in Philly, Crowd going wild. Jaws came out and picked Jones and I was so excited. Little did we all know he would turn out to be such a dud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Douglas was a very good player that was playing out of position, dude is a safety all day long, I have no idea what's on Schwartz's mind. As for Shitney, horrible pick X 100 based on going in the second round (43 overall). This is why it kills me every time I hear accolades for Howie, he needs to be sent to the unemployment office........ASAP!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they don't change to a proper GM, then make Howie only business side like Joe Banner was and get a new VP of Personnel. The idea of the structure with Joe Douglas was good he just didn't pan out. Keep recruiting from teams that draft well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
