Franchiseneedsme Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 SO I like Tyrod. Problem is he is severely limited, but he also has his strengths. Last year he signed a team friendly deal after finding out the rest of the league doesn't view him as a starter. I would love TT for like $9M a season, not $18m-$20m. Would TT sign a 3 year deal worth $27m? Guarantee half of it, and I think he might take it. He doesn't seem to be a money chaser, this is undoubtedly his best spot to play, and the fans would love him for signing that deal. Also we would be in great position to build a great team around him. I know it is very unconventional but this year could be the perfect storm for us to use leverage. Flame away. But I like TT for a discounted rate, If it takes market value to sign him he isn't worth it.
JOE IN HAMPTON ROADS Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 He's not that limited ... first QB to take us to the playoffs since Flutie. Draft one or two or three, but keep Tyrod another year as well. 3

Victory Formation Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 I'd offer him 2yrs/24 million. I think that's what he's worth.

NoSaint Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 Why does he take less to stay? coach that benched him thinks race is a factor poor scheme fit not great receiver talent id venture he could find a better fit if we lowball him drastically 2

Only then will there be consideration. I think the turnovers we forced contributed as much if not more than Taylor

I remember Richard Sherman saying that, not Taylor.

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 Will it really be that hard to replace a QB that passed for 2,799 and 14TD's. Taylor needs to be gone after this year. 1

Dorkington Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 I still think he's good to have on board until a new QB is developed, but I think the asking price will be too high now that he's taken us to the playoffs (so to speak).
yungmack Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 Wait a minute, what's this "at our price" business? I'm not kicking in. You'll have to rely on MAJBobby for the big bucks.
NoSaint Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 On 1/4/2018 at 2:45 AM, MAJBobby said: Did this past offseason didnt he?? Expand Clearly he will do it EVERY offseason. Also in that list- how many people were arguing he had poor history with our brand new coach, for instance? You are doing that thing you like to do (especially with Tyrod) where you overstate things because you believe them not because they are factual. 1

Expand Did he not take a paycut to come back here instead of going into a weak QB UFA Market? Is this not a much much stronger UFA market coming up along with a strong draft? otherwise no leverage Edited January 4, 2018 by MAJBobby
