Evan Mathis
 

He still hasn`t signed with a new team. Do you think we have a shot at him?
He would really push our Oline over the top I think.

Re: Evan Mathis
 

It all depends on what kind of deal he has on the table and what he is looking for. He may be unsigned because the interest is low, maybe because his price is higher than what he is getting, or maybe he is weighing offers. I will admit the quiet on his front leads me to believe he may be available on a one-year make good deal.

Re: Evan Mathis
 

Exactly what I think. Could be really worth a shot

Re: Evan Mathis
 

Yep ... an aging vet looking for a lucrative contract. Training camp is upon us. I say let's see what we have in camp.

Re: Evan Mathis
 

He wanted 6 million. Maybe he and his agent are waiting out the first major injury, or maybe they are truly playing hardball.
Be interesting to see where he is in 3 weeks.

Re: Evan Mathis
 

So all 32 teams have passed so far?

Hmm... That might say something.

Re: Evan Mathis
 

hell yeah bring him and take a look see. never know. played next to nothing his first few years in the NFL so the thread is not as worn as most might think. price has to be right

Re: Evan Mathis
 

Nope... Evans and Lelito both make the Pro Bowl this season.

Re: Evan Mathis
 

Do we have money after this Galette thing or not..... We are on the hook for Galette's guaranteed money I understand, but as far as if we have cap space now because he is released..... I am unsure.

Re: Evan Mathis
 

Galette only gave us 100k in relief this year and cost us 12.1 in dead money next season. So, whatever we had before Galette deal, we have 100k more now, so insignificant.

Re: Evan Mathis
 

Jr has to sign some where. if he signs for league min we are pretty much screwed.

Last i heard we were some 3 mill under but do not quote me on that

Given the fact that our defense is more of a question mark than it was before i could understand going with a solid veteran addition up front.

It would appears that Drew's stress level just went up 10 fold.

IF THIS OFFENDS YOU GO TO HELL!

Re: Evan Mathis
 

Brees restructuring in '16 could help the JG albatross around our neck

Re: Evan Mathis
 

lot of talk that Atlanta is looking.
Again, if he is stuck on 6 million, I don't think it's going to happen. Where he screwed up was only getting a 5 mill signing bonus 3 years ago, and he gets practically nothing this year.

Re: Evan Mathis
 

There is no restructure of Brees. 2016 is his last year. Signing Brees to a new deal could help lower the cap hit of 2016, but that would mean a new lucrative deal for Brees.

Re: Evan Mathis
 

Whatever we need Payton will do it.

Re: Evan Mathis
 

A new contract would mean his deal is restructured. I'm sure it'll be much friendlier than the $26 M it is now.

another rental to ponder:

buyer's market

Re: Evan Mathis
 

From what I have read, a whole lot of cash paid to a player who hasn't had a whole lot of production over the last few seasons.
