Bye bye DJ.
This is "DT money":Yeah , I think so too …. I didn't think he was gonna command DE money.
DT money is quite a bit less. Hell I was thinking he might get $8m or so with that being pretty fair for both sides and they are talking double that with the franchise tag.
I still believe Reader signs long term reasonable contract.Tag... you're it.
Tag... you're it.
Hope you're correct but as season progressed & then Mercilus extended, my view changed. I would not pay him over $8 m and definitely no tag unless they can somehow play it for some picks and if none remove the tag. I like him but think Blackson can be the guy and want to see Vanderdoes. People need to remember DJ played away from the Nose while Dunn and V was Nose. I think he will get at least two offers of $10 +.I still believe Reader signs long term reasonable contract.

Your last sentence sums up the situation. I'm not sure that Miller, JJo or Clark are going to be a consideration to stay if not for on the cheap. I feel that we will see creative pay negotiations/renegotiations (including large signing bonuses that can be prorated over 5 years) and potential pay and trade deals, while the Draft produces some surprising results in the later rounds. As far as Reader, he has shown only 1 very good season and may be convinced to re-sign for a nice signing bonus and $10-11 million salary figure.What do you consider "reasonable."
I don't know what to expect of this front office by committee …. We really have nothing to base an opinion off of.
Reader has earned a hefty payday , he's been the one piece that's held the front end of this defense together most of the season. I'd hate to see him leave but ….
They will have quite a few FA's to deal with aside from what they do with Watson and Tunsil.
Roby , Miller , JJo , Hyde , Dunn , Fairbairn , McCarron , Fells , Addae , Weeks , Clark , R.Johnson , Cole.
Only $60m in projected cap space , no picks in the top 2 rounds ….
They are gonna have some tough decisions to make.
Great overview. Jjo should coach, Roby come back, Miller and Clark walk (Tytus back), Dunn Fairbairn, McCarron, Fells, Addae, Weeks, R JOhnson and Cole should be a reasonable deal and worth coming back. I like Docs view on Reader's deal. Remind him there is not always a LPC type fun on every team. The big elephant is whether DW4 breaks the bank or holds a little back to help build a better team. Your life and family's life is not different at $30 vs $35m per year is no different. I like Hyde, but really depends on what he wants. He may just want a freaking home by nowWhat do you consider "reasonable."

I hope DW takes a look at what Brady did. Brady took less to make the team better to maintain their competitiveness.
That extra 5 million could mean keeping a player to help win a Super Bowl to get more marketing/advertising deals to make up for it.
I didn’t see Tunsil in either of your posts. Shouldn’t he be there?
Just look at Aaron Rodgers and the Packers and how much money he commands off of their salary cap. Hard to build a team when $35 Mill is gone. Deshaun is really young and will want to get his money I'm sure. QB's usually give the discounts later in their career when they've already secured their fortune.

Soooo no Caserio??
I could be totally out of my mind but for some reason I'm feeling Caserio will end up here in some President or VP role and can't shake the feeling they will bring in Josh McDaniels as HC.
Yeah I know, it sounds nuts but I just keep getting that feeling.
Would McDaniels & O'Brien accept McDaniel's being the assistant head coach and offensive coordinator?I could be totally out of my mind but for some reason I'm feeling Caserio will end up here in some President or VP role and can't shake the feeling they will bring in Josh McDaniels as HC.
