But also true that when the Thomas-to-Dallas stuff started, Dallas wasn't the dumpster fire they are now with zero chance to get Thomas a ring.

Maybe he doesn't actually care about rings.

The cap is a myth. If you want a player.....you can make it work.

I’d offer them a 2nd this year and 3rd next year.

I’m just saying, if they play the long game in every situation, you’ll end up with a 1st ballot HOF QB who had amazing stats for 15 years and no rings to show for it...

I don’t think a trade for Earl changes the future outlook enough to say that it’s really going to hurt their next 5-10 years. At all.

Exactly.

That's certainly a possibility.

So we’ve gone from “wait till next draft for our QB” to “wait until the next draft to fix our defense”.

.

They won't give him a long term deal, or they won't give him a long term deal that he feels is a$$eptable?

The latter, not that the distinction really matters. Every player in the NFL wants to get paid.

Yep.

He gave the Seahawks a discount on his last extension because the LOB all were getting deals. Now those guys are gone and the Seahawks are handing out money to everyone else like Tyler Lockett and not him.

I remember when the Patriots had a young Tom Brady and signed Rodney Harrison, that seemed to work out pretty well for them.... Just Sayin'

Probably have the guys starting this year wont even be on the team next year.

Houston- cap casualty
Ford-???
Scandrick- will be 32
Parker
Berry- healthy? Possibly? Maybe
Bailey and Ragland are free agents. Dont know if I'd bring Ragland back. Bailey is good but not reliable.

They are going to need all the picks they can get.

Yeah, because they need more Speaks', KPass', and DOD's.

I really don't get that mentality, you'd think with what's going on right now everyone would be all in.

He's a safety needing a new contract. It's not gonna cost that much. Maybe a 3rd.

Paying more than that is crazy.
