Why not just pick up his 5th year option if you're going to go that route? It would be a lot cheaper in the long run. Or don't pick it up and look to work out a more team friendly deal before he plays out his last year. The idea is to avoid a franchise tag. To avoid having one of our players play at an all pro level just as he becomes a free agent. That never ends well.
nah that madness has to stop..at some point aplayer needs to play into anew deal not giving one that hope he plays up it..with LVES injury history, lack of experience on the field and recent struggles, why outbid yourself?
it happens far too much around here and im ll for letting LVE prove hes worth keeping..it will be better to overpay a guy whos arrived then one who might someday be good and overpaid and they never arrive..
LVE has shown nothing at this point to need to pick up 5th year option or worry abut long term deal. Seriously this draft shows we decided to get some youth to push these guys just in case we end up with an all new LB core for 2022..
we were more then patient with SLee all these years but just cant be using emotional responses with payer ie being loyal to popular players, they need to out up or be gone.. so what if they lave and become all pros somewhere else that the risk you take and i as GM wouldn't sweat it..
you dont being in this many new LB options if you are satisfied with those on the current staff
