Trade our best player and set franchise back years. Brilliant strategy. Fools. That's all it is. Especially the "No team is winning the SB with a $20MM WR" thought. No team has won the SB with a $20MM QB neither. I guess let's just move on from Matt and Julio and rebuild. Ergo Proxy, Vandy and ATLSlobberKnockers 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Brady is the only exception he’s the only one to win with a contract of 20+ Wilson Wentz/Foles Brees Rodgers Flacco were all on cheap deals when they won. Look at last year’s playoffs team.

Well it didn’t make us win but when they are on a rookie deal vs making 30 mill+ you can easily add talent. Browns Cowboys Bears Chiefs Ravens all have better chances than us right now. Talented QB for pennies. Can trade for and pick up elite talent in FA. Sounds sexy to me Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sounds sexy to me I get the argument you're trying to make. We don't lack for talent. Of that group, the Chiefs are the only team I'd agree with. Browns are just an exciting 7-9 team. Cowboys lol. Bears are a QB away...still. Ravens have no clue what they're doing on offense. You don't trade away an MVP QB because he's taking up cap space. The Saints didn't lose to the Rams because of Brees contract. They didn't lose to the Vikings because of Brees contract. They should have been in the NFCCG and SB the last two years respectively. They choked, but not for lack of talent. We trade Ryan and Julio and end up with a bust at QB and WR and then what? More picks doesn't equal more talent. It just equals the opportunity to land it.

Hey man all I am saying is if you can get Pro Bowl talent on a rookie contract, you have better odds to stack the deck. It’s part of the reason we went to the SB in the first place. But once the bill comes due you can’t be afraid to pull the trigger on them like the pats do. You want 6 SBs or none because once Julio and Ryan retire you will still be a falcons fan wishing we had one Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Even at his age. Even still, Brady's cap hits last year and this year are higher than Ryan's. Same with Brees. So again, it hasn't hamstrung the team.

They have to keep drafting well. Can't have anymore 2012-2013 type drafts. That's what tanked the team, not the contracts. Like you said, if they keep finding cheap talent, they can weather it while the cap increases. ButSkiuup and Ergo Proxy 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Malachore 9,464 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 So you think they are messing with Julio's money in an attempt to keep MT out of camp for a week? And you think Julio would be ok with that?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But, goodness would that be hilarious and brilliant if it were even slightly true? Julio hasn’t signed the deal but the man is out there living his best life not worried about a thang like Stevie Wonder. MT is in his home playing thumb war with his agent until Julio signs his deal so he can gage his worth... That, is funny my friend.
