Drafted him and then in SF helped facilitate/influence his trade there. Or my guy Glowinski who was the RG for Wentz last year in Indy. Indys RG and LT both declined to resign with the Colts and their 9 year TE retired. Players also publicly expressing their frustration with their FO/owner. The wheels are falling off and they're more dysfunctional than us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solving the Commanders’ salary cap issue created by the Carson Wentz trade - Hogs Haven Thanks for posting this. The main takeaway from this article was the below imo. Quote Cap space isn’t an unsolvable issue for the Commanders. With the $7m available after adjusting for Deshazor Everett and $13m from a simple restructure of our new starting quarterback’s salary, the team could enter free agency with $20m in available cap space, which wouldn’t be so bad. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMacAttack Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Will be interesting to see what kind of market Collins has. His safety days are behind him. (Like opposing receivers) 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koolblue13 Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Shame about Collins, but not shocking at all. I cant wait until early in the first quarter of our first game, when Wentz hits Terry in stride 60 yards down the field and a lot of people's tunes change. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWJ Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 We have a lot more work to do this week/weekend to get more money for FA. Restructures, extensions, more cuts, if possible. Maybe a trade. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooleyfan1993 Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Wait. We had 28 million in cap space after trading for wentz right? How did cutting collins get us down to 12M? Didn’t we save money? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWJ Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Just now, HigSkin said: Imagine if we had signed Russell Wilson. 😂 Well, HigSkin we'd be getting an older QB by 3 or 4 years as Wentz is younger, the extension would have been much more thank Wentz and we would have lost our 1sts and more picks for the next 3 years. We would have had a better QB though. We shall see how this plays out. IF we can protect for Wentz and get another WR to team with Terry and another RB we may be ok. I'd like to see us trade down in the 1st definitely and possibly 2nd and recoup some picks we lost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were down to about 5.5-6.2M, Collins bought us another 6M but that dead cap...ugh! Really had hoped they'd treat him as a June 1st and spread that dead cap out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or do you think they want/need the 6.5 now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillBill26 Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 I keep seeing LC savings at 6.5. Couldn't they designate him a June 1st cut and have more room this year? Add in the 13 mil if we restructure Wentz, and we have about 20 mil for free agents and another 5 for rookies. Only 10 teams have more than 25 mil in space currently, so we can be competitive bidding for some mid tier guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, with more staying power this time. But yeah, nothing about the demeanor of Landon Collins made me think he would NOT hit the open market unless they overpaid.

I’m not sure why, but i kept seeing we had about 50M in cap space before the trade for wentz, 33M doesn’t seem like a lot for the moves we needed to make pre-wentz.
