So just throw that into the mix. Here's the tweet, in case it wasn't posted... Got to imagine that team will be all over him in FA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In reality that means we've only got 8-10 we'd want to utilise now. Collins would easily eat away 2/3rds of that. So, we simply have to make some roster/contract moves. I'd suggest at least two players on significant contracts will need to be moved on, either cut or traded, or we see a raft of contract restructures. Dont see how we can retain all of Norman,Reed, Z Brown, Davis, Kerrigan on their current money. I would release everyone on your list apart from Kerrigan. Free's up around 24m cap space. HTTR What's the hold up with the new deal for Brandon Scherff, thought they would have had it sorted by now. HTTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExoDus84 Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I'm kind of souring on Collins, honestly. It's not exactly a secret that he's a liability in coverage. I know he'd be playing SS, and not FS, but I think it might be a good thing to sign a safety that can cover, especially if we're going to have to fork over $10-12M per to sign him. No safety is worth that kind of money if they can't even lock down RB's and TE's. For similar money, I'd rather have Earl Thomas/Weddle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earl Thomas is going to break his leg for the Dallas Cowboys. i'll pass!!!! Weddle, maybe, depends on the asking price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't make sense for the Browns to trade a G like Zeiter unless he's included in a package deal to get someone big in return. G/C/G combos are important, especially for a shorter QB like Mayfield. They won't trade him just because they like Corbett. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wit33 Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Earl Thomas is a much better football player than rest of the safety market. If going to spend, get the future hall of Famer on a contract that pays him big money in first two years with ability to get out easily after.

HigSkin Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Must be the year of Safety or something... Makes a lot of sense. -Joyner (fits, but pricey) -Amos (fits probably the best) -C. Geathers (more of a SS only; No) -Glover Quinn (fits well; might want to be on a contender) -Darian Stewart (fits well) -Adrian Phillips (stud this year only, young--sounds like Bruce signing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Releasing Collins I get. He was a good LB getting paid elite LB money and they saved almost $10M in cap space. Zeitler's playing to his contract. Again it only makes sense if they're getting someone equal in return, like Dee Ford who Dorsey drafted in KC. Edit: saw your post, or a package deal for OBJ, and maybe they'd take Oliver off their hands as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would Gibbs keep Ramsey then trade up for mediocre Jason Campbell? God was a hot mess this QB position has been since Gibbs 1.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they offered a 2nd round pick and the Skins wanted a 1st. And this was before Ramsey ever played a down for the Redskins lol...I think the next offseason the Bears made another attempt and that time they offered a 1st (I think), which the Skins decided to turn down.

Gibbs saw more value in having Ramsey as a backup to Brunell then draft picks. Gibbs always valued veteran players over draft picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
