Lambs 5th year option picked up

[Adreme]

And he deserves it..he's gonna be a top 3 wr for the next 5 years

Um are some combination of Chase, AJ Brown, CK, Jefferson, Adams, and Hill retiring soon (and those were just the obvious ones)? Lamb is great but lets not overrate our own players.

Who are the other two in your estimation

How so, are you saying that actually trading Diggs is inconceivable, can not be done?

Having “leverage” has nothing to do with something being “inconceivable” or impossible.

 

[Jfconrow]

If he plays on that 5th yr option his agent should be fired

Try to trade Diggs and get whatever you can.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

To be expected. Hopefully, a deal will be made soon. Sounds like they want something done around May.

I do think that's likely the move to make. Especially with this being a CB heavy draft. I could see getting at least a 1st for Diggs.

Sorry but you are making zero sense.

Old news.

Happened today so not really old

So we have huge contract decisions after this season Cee Dee, Diggs and Dak.

Speaking of 5th-year options.....check this out

 

[StarLord]

Our 80 year old owner/gm sees us as a player or so away from the Super Bowl, I don't see him trading a pro bowl starter for draft capital when "this could be the year."

Now's the time to get the extension done when you got 2 years already on the books.

CeeDee had a breakout year and changed a lot of minds…..mine included

Zeke approves of this message

I think Diggs is going to get a 16-18M a year contract. Or be traded. What they don't want to do is let him play out his last year.

Lamb will get his extension before the season starts. I predict around 23-25M a year.

This is just my opinion. I let Lamb play his 5 years and release him. Sign Diggs.

Good, dont even care about the numbers, CD has already proven to be an WR1 in this league and for this team.
More interested in the term from my perspective.

ironic that not what was being said even 4 games into last season LOL most said without Coop lamb is 32 at best and needs protection from a 1 to succeed says he drops too many passes which BTW compared to many other greats he does not , some other young wrs drop as many or more ie chase and Jefferson or an olde TO drops too many all the way to the HOF and what still top 3 All-time. Narratives always make me laugh when mist are unfounded and busted all the time... wow has the tide has turned for another great 88.

Anyone that has their 5th year option picked up plays on their 5th year option. Maybe I'm misunderstanding you? Even if Lamb gets an extension, he still plays on his 5th year option. It doesn't get negated.

right the new money wouldnt kick in until the 6th year , typically, thats the way i understand it..i could be wrong..

You're not wrong. Any extension doesn't start until the 6th year. So he plays out his 4th year and 5th year option. But they can restructure those two years. So if he got a 4 year deal starting his 6th year, they can spread that out over 6 years. That's why you don't wait to extend a player you know you want to keep. And why 5th year options are favorable.
