WFT's Off-Season Thread

JMO we should of let Scherff test the market.

Even if no more cut, some real bargains for the patient in free agency. Interesting question I don't know the answer to, do you sign a FA WR 75% as good as the elite for 40% of the price?

To me if you do that you may as well keep Sims and Sims, and maybe group Harmon with those 2 (he's still a relative unknown quantity). To my mind if S. Sims wants too much then we let him walk and maybe bring in a 2nd tier FA to replace him like for like (Davis type?), but that could be a zero sum game at best.

More like, we go after and land one of the big targets, or draft a #1a/#2 WR then pick up a 2nd tier guy in the lower rounds. I doubt we get Robinson or Golladay, as mentioned elsewhere they're likely to go where there's a QB. But Fuller or Samuel would be good #2's to Scary.

I don't have a big problem with tagging Scherff. It's a one year rental while we have chance to draft in a replacement. It might be nice to get a trade offer, but I doubt it, and I don't see along term contract coming in the next few weeks unless he agrees something more cap friendly; why would he?

Unless they plan on making a massive FA splash and try to be a contender, tagging Scherff makes zero sense IMO

Yes I am OK with tagging him, I wonder which tag it is? Will they let him search out other offers, in exchange for some day 2 draft picks. Apparently both sides wanted a deal, so someone is fibbing. Annoys me that it reduces our cap flexibility un-necessarily. With all the Gs that are going to be free agents the market is going to be depressed. Wonder if ex-Carolina guy, Norwell?, who signed for Jax and may be released because of his large salary may be on Ron's radar.

Obviously the coaches really like Scherff. I don't have a problem with this, my best guess is the coaches doesn't want to risk losing Scherff so they tagged him to gain more time to negotiate the new contract for him.

Not sure how many teams want to trade for a guard making 18 million and will be a FA again in 1 year.

What round pick would you accept for him?

If a trade were to happen, I'm pretty sure both Scherff and the team would do a new deal. And I don't know about compensation, but anything better than a comp pick would be a win.

If I'm BS unless I get a ton of guaranteed $$ in a LT offer I'm playing under the tag this year, collecting my $18M guaranteed, and hitting free agency next year for another bite at the apple. I think we just blew our shot at getting a long term deal done.

I just don't understand paying a guard 18 mil
