Josh Sitton
 

Here's the answer to our problems boys! With the John Kuhn connection we've gotta make this happen!

Wow that is a surprise. Wonder what the deal is. If he's healthy then... make it happen Loomis!

An All-Pro left guard has literally just fallen right into our laps... Now would be a great time for Brees to sign that extension he was willing to sign for Josh Norman so we can make this happen.

Better than signing Evans.

So nfl.com says they're hoping to trade him, but will release him otherwise. Likely due to salary cap constraints. Our cupboard is a little bare on draft picks but I would happily send them a 6th, or 5th if we have one.

Ah, I wasn't sure if it was the 5th or the 6th we traded, knew it was one of em. I would still do a 5th. It would be worth it to keep him from hitting the market. Mccain probably won't make the team so we should get our 7th back.

Well at least that'll cut short my multi hour draft watching next year

Why in the world would the Pack cut him this close to start of season? What does McCarthy know? Proceed with caution.

I am guessing refused pay cut, but that is just a guess

jeanpierre 09-03-2016 02:53 PM

Re: Josh Sitton
 
So the Packers are just letting him geaux because?

When the rest of the league heard we were cutting All-Pro Jahri Evans loose, teams just lined up because we foolishly let him geaux?

I'd feel better trading for a guard a team is retaing but has the depth at the position to make it happen...like the Eagles...

Something's wrong that they're cutting him loose...

The reports at this point seem to suggest exactly that. Even more reason to keep him off the open market. If a bidding war starts we're not likely to win it.

You should be a psychic.

Okay, credible source, maybe we can kick the tires...not to hard a kick...

If it's just contract issues, then at this point I would send a 3rd rd for him. He's a proven player.

He's a free agent now... Packers released him so no need to trade.

There were some really strange cuts around the league, but this one definitely catches the eye for obvious reasons. Sure would be nice to reel him in.

He can be had. Loomis does his kick the can down the road contract.
Let Byrd walk next year.
Probably would have to be a 3 year deal.
7 to 8 million a year might be the price.

Keep Barns as your swing OG

LG would no longer be an issue for a couple of years.

Still up in the air is Peat and and his future at RT. Cutting Strief in 2017 would save few million also.

Well they can free up 1.67ml each by cutting Lelito and John Jenkins

He's all about his money. Don't blame him. The Saints can't afford to pay him.

The Saints can afford anyone they want. They have $12M to $15M in free cap sitting there in the Brees savings account. Loomis knows he can tap that if needed. He also knows he can cover the $30M if he doesn't need the cap in 2016 and still sign Brees to new deal immediately following the season just like the Colts did with Manning twice. Don't forget, Manning's agent, Tom Condon, is also Brees' agent.

Re: Josh Sitton
 
The Bears just signed a huge contract extension for their top OG today. 10 million per season!!! Maybe now they might not want to tie up as much money in OG's as Sitton will cost them quite a bit.

Chicago Bears have reportedly locked up Kyle Long long-term | FOX Sports

What I fear though is that Ryan Pace learned from his time here just how important having two elite guards can be.

Maybe they just want to keep their franchise QB upright. I mean keep Cutler upright and he will throw for 4,0 hahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahahaha

I'm hoping he thinks thats if you have a short QB like Brees who struggles (more so than others) with pressure up the gut.

Cutler could have a line like Dallas did i the early 90s and he would still screw it up

Pace is just gonna make himself out to be a fool when its all said and done, all he's doing is making himself a punching bag by Rodgers.

I do think bears finish second in north this year though?
