  • They are indicating he is now going to Carolina too. Can you spell distraction? 

    Let me know when he's a Brown......otherwise, meh....

    We coulda/shoulda just dropped a 6th or 7th and it woulda been a done deal weeks ago.....

    Read a musing today that McCoy just might drag out signing past the upcoming mandatory mini-camps.

    Agree.... $13mm was not a barrier... at least not if we really thought McCoy was a key piece to add to our 2019 puzzle.

    I was thinking that may be a possibility. We'll see soon enough.

  • Looks like he is making the decision among 3 (Browns are one of them) over this weekend.

    Well...it would NOT be a trade, as he is a free agent.  The Browns would not have to give up anything to get him but money.

    Maybe your problem is that you have not been giving your wife enough "sacrifice squeezes". 

  • Good luck in Carolina Gerald. Time for us to move on.

    Mike

  • what did he end up signing for? was it a lot more than what the Browns offered? I mean he's not gonna start there either...what's the point then? 

  • 1y/4M guaranteed, total value 10M if hits all bonuses

    Carolina now has only 8m for all rookies and UDFA.. not much.

    So the next shoe to fall will probably be Carolina cutting/trading Dontari Poe's 5.8M/3.3M hit over the next 2 seasons.

  • 1 year 4M at signing/3M base/500k Camp Bonus/500k per game on 46 man active/Sack bonus=6.5 sacks =500k. 8 sacks-1.5M ect.ect./250k if he makes the pro-bowl/250k if Panthers make the playoffs(ah nah! see Saints)..Total deal could MAX. 10.25M..Rumors not confirmed*--McCoy took less money than other deals? is rumored, to play the revenge card against Bucs week 2 & 6 while staying in the familiar NFC South..and no issue in Tampa giving McCoy's #93 to Suh Monday with Arians saying "McCoy just don't fit our Defensive scheme"..?..guess i will be grilling the wife some tv dinners..all this week😉

    So, a couple of questions:

    What did the Browns offer him, if known?  (can we assume it was less than this incentive laden deal?  Did the Browns offer an incentive laden deal?) This deal also leaves the Panthers with almost -0- cap space.  Someone above said they would need to cut their other starting DT to make room for McCoy

    And does this indicate that the "I want to play for a certain contender"  was just a smokescreen?   The primary cog for the Panthers, Cam Newton, is just coming off serious shoulder surgery...the kind that cause  Andrew Luck to miss a year.  And even with him the Vegas over/under for that team was projected as less than both the Browns and Ravens:

    Carolina Panthers

    • 2019 Win Total: 8 (over +100 /under -120)
    • 2018 Wins: 7

    Bottom line....he wasn't getting the money he wanted from the AFCN teams, and the incentive laden contract was the best he could do....and maybe the other incentive was to play against the Bucs twice a year.  That..I can understand.

  • Eh, don't need him anyway.

    @poeticg said:

    Eh, don't need him anyway.

    Need?  Maybe not.  But the Browns could have used him, for sure, in my mind, given a shallow depth chart at DT:

    T 65 Ogunjobi, Larry 17/3 91 Price, Brian SF18 94 Davis, Carl W/Bal 96 Ekuale, Daniel CF18    
    DT 98 Richardson, Sheldon U/Min 93 Coley, Trevon SF16 99 Lawrence, Devaroe T/NO
  • rumor is the Browns offered him 8. They don't know if that was after incentives. And signing with Carolina he gets to play the Bucs twice a year. Ah well, at least he didn't stiff us for the shitbirds. Still tho...i'm not comfortable with our interior D if either Sheldon or Jobi get hurt. I don't want to see Jobi out there playing hurt like he had to last year.
