DogofWar1 Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 Herbert for 2 is a fun hypo but practically probably a bad idea. Herbert's contract is HUGE. We have cap space now, but the team is fundamentally not in a position to absorb that large of a contract for the next couple years. Herbert cap hits 2024: 19.3M 2025: 37.3M 2026: 46.3M 2027: 58.3M 2028: 71.1M 2029: 59.5M Now sure, you can probably re-configure the contract in 2027 to keep those last 3 years from killing you but it's gonna cost you later. Basically, all our extra cap space now would go to Herbert, and we'd have to make roster sacrifices to fit his cap hit later. While every team with a franchise QB has to do that dance eventually, we'd be accelerating our timetable for that by 4 years. If our team was maybe in a better position, maybe. If you were say, San Fransisco if Purdy sucked, it might be worth it. But we are too far away. We need some time to build our core and hopefully do so while the QB is cheap.

The Rook Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 1 hour ago, illone said: McCarthy odds to be drafted by Washington went from +2600 down to +430 Is it "drafted by Washington" or "drafted second"? Just curious, because they can be different things. The Rook 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rufus T Firefly Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 23 hours ago, Rex Tomb said: The guest (Kedric Gohlston maybe?) said that if Harbaugh really thought JJ McCarthy was such a stud, why didn't he use him like that then. They relied so much on their defense and the RBs to grind out the games that McCarthy was asked to do very little, but wouldn't Harbaugh want to use those supposed skills and talents (ala Andrew Luck) if he really thought they were there? Why did he not run his team in the way that resulted in a National Championship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you had Patrick Mahomes on your team, would you build the team with an intense focus on running the ball, defense, and having Mahomes just be a game manager? If you have a stud QB, why wouldn't you use him that way? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won it with their incredible defense and excellent run game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DogofWar1 Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 Interesting banter here 5:25 to 7:30 Basically saying all the McCarthy talk is owners meeting people getting in on the bit talking about JJ at 2 and making content for their media friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 Its coming from Harbaugh and his brother is probably helping him out too to throw him a bone. If QBs go 1-4 then Harbaugh can steal Marvin Harrison jr. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
