Pace make the call NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Midway-monster84]

Please dear god sign the man ! He’d be our best O lineman instantly.

 

[WestCoastBearsFan]

Pace is too busy looking at his 1936381947103th TE /s

 

[msadows]

Was pretty bad before going to NO. That is a thing of worry.

I'd take him in an instant.

Please. Then let ifedi/spriggs/massie battle it out at RT.

He was one of the best guard prospects in the last decade.

I could live with that. Massie would prob be the odd man out because of his contract.

 

[remydat]

Should already be signed by Pace. How did his former team not give Pace the heads up?

No he wasnt.

84.9, 72.8, 75.1, 80.3 before going to Saints.

 

[redgrange19]

Needs to be signed today.

PFF is trash.

 

[msadows]

I think we still have cap?

And we have a gaping hole at RG with only scrubs competing for it.

He'd start instantly and be on a playoff caliber team.

 

[msadows]

This is the moment we've been waiting to cut cordarelle patterson for!

lol jk

 

[Discus fish salesman]

Won't he get more than any of the other guards that were available this off-season? Which would likely put us above the cap without some maneuvering of other contracts?

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have him, but I don't know if its workable

Better than just making up shit.

Pace should be converting money right now to get this guy. I wonder if this will be a Gipson type deal. Wonder how much NO still owes this guy.

2020 Dead Cap: $5,125,0002020 Cap Savings: $7,750,000

He was averaging 8.5/yr. I'd assume he's probably still worth near that? Maybe a mill or two less. IDK if we have the cash without cutting.

We have 9 million in cap. 7 million once we sign rookies. Can get to 14-16 million by cutting CP, Shaheen, and Ben Brauk. It is a no brainer to go after him if you are pace.

Offer her a year year deal for 3 mill.

 

[remydat]

8-10 million a year should get it done and should be doable I think.

 

[Probie2429]

Josh Sitton 2.0 situation. Pays to be patient.

 

[playthrough2001]

Some of you guys are ready to shell out 8-10 million to a guy that was just cut by another team? The market is pretty dry in general. I’d love to sit across the negotiating table from anyone willing to make a deal like that.

Also, Pace will have better intel on Warford than any other GM because of his relationship with Loomis. I would like to see him added if there isn’t some issue we’re not privy to and the price makes sense considering the context.
