Chiefs Can Weddle replace Berry? - Page 17

TigeRRUppeRRcut · 08:46 PM

Weddle had a down season playing on a horrendous San Diego defensive roster but the man is a proven product and is hungry for a title. Berry on the other hand seems to be $$ driven and is showing no signs of giving us a home team discount with the rumors going around the NFL. I find that disappointing given how the organization stood by him during his illness. Despite being 'comeback player of the year' his game footage was actually quite mediocre with only 55 tackles, poor coverage of tight ends, and oftentimes late to help corners on deep routes.

For 2 years, $12 million...I can't help but think that Weddle would be a great fit in this defense* and gives us adequate time to draft a long term replacement. This also gives us the ability to retain Howard and spend money on either Sean Smith or a free agent corner/linebacker.

Weddle, Poe, Howard, Houston, Peters would be a helluva lineup!

Has anyone here taken or would taken a team friendly deal at their work? I'm guessing they'd tell their boss to get ****ed

No shit.

Option A :

Do what's best for you and your family

OR

Option B :

Do what a bunch of beer-swilling ham and Eggers want you to do so they can still watch you on TV every week.

And they say the ship ain't rigged, LOL

(Cue all the 'Houston and Hali were hurt' bullshitters)

Let me cut that off now - Zombo and Dee Ford ran PLENTY of blitzes during the regular season (and at Houston).

Why, on earth, oh WHY would Sutton decide to Zone our defense to death against Brady??

On phone, someone embed

At least he would use stats to troll. The guy just had the best season of his career AFTER chemo and you choose to use THAT as the reason why you think it's good to let him walk?

Yea you are definitely one of clays minions. Only they would be foolish enough to defend him after this whole place called for his banning.

Eric Berry best season? Give me proof. His numbers are significantly down from his first three seasons

TigeRRUppeRRcut · 02-25-2016, 02:52 PM

If Berry could show he wants to get better and wants to improve like Revis does, constantly elevating his game, then yes let's max him out. But the guy is taking advantage of his early accomplishments and living off those credits. If he gets the money, I hope I'm wrong about him. Good safeties can be drafted and plugged in almost immediately. That's why their free agency contact ceilings are not as high as other positions

safeties have a pretty high contract ceiling, they arent CB or DL/pass rusher high, but they are pretty high

The guy worked out and busted his ass while undergoing chemo so he could come back and play..he maintained weight..gained a pound..the guy is dedicated to football and to be a top safety in the league to say anything about him living off his early career is not accurate in my opinion

Wow. You're really raising the bar of stupidity here.

Revis has consistently whored himself out to the highest bidder. If anything, he's all about the money.

And he's perennially an elite player at his position for continually evolving himself

You'll say just about anything it seems..

Berry's arrow is obviously pointing up. He's got two All-Pro nominations in his last two full seasons played.

As it stands now, he's got one less than your male lover Earl Thomas despite basically missing two entire seasons. In entire HOF careers guys like Ed Reed, Troy Polamalu and Brisn Dawkins finished with 5, 4, and 4.

We don't need him. I'd rather sign David Bruton than Eric Weddle.

Bruton is gone. He's going to get starter money.

One of his minions? I thought I WAS Clay? Now I've been downgraded to one of his minions? Why do you say that?

Also, you ARE Blackbob.

Probably. He already said he wants the contract that Justin Bethel received and I don't see Denver being able to pay him $5M a year. He also said he'd play for any team in the NFL except the Patriots

Edit: With that being said, if Elway can't get Malik signed then Bruton and Trevathan could be who Denver tries to keep.
