Twitter: McCarthy: Lawrence a couple of weeks away

[Stash]

he's a couple months away from not being on the team anymore lol

It’s probably nothing, but part of me wonders if they keep Lawrence out because they’re afraid he gets hurt again and they can’t release him in the offseason if he can’t pass a physical? A long shot hypotheses admittedly, but after what the team went through with Jaylon? I don’t rule anything out.

His salary for this year is $21,000,000.00.
Way to go Jerry.

I say way to go Stephen.

Ok, so if we only paid $5m than it would have been fine with you? What the heck would saving $16m do for us right now? You going to find a free agent right now? Somebody packing groceries? Sitting on the couch? c'mon man

Did you know that surplus cap money can be rolled over?

DLaw isn't walking thru that door to save this team anyway. What's the point of having him if he's unavailable? I'm not against DLaw, but moving on from his contract is creeping into the discussion.

I always though our "depth" was overrated. Armstrong and Golston are just JAGs at DE. And DT never had any real studs and the two guys people thought might help in Gallimore and Hill appear to be weeks away themselves.

Teams are going to try, and will likely be, quite successful at running the ball down our throats for the next 3-4 weeks. This Atlanta game should be a gimme and it likely won't be.

On the DL yeah. I meant overall. My fault.

The injuries were tolerable early on, but they are now happening at key spots where the drop from 1st string to backup is significant.

We aren't at all deep at LT or edge, and thats gonna bite us if it doesn't fix itself with health.

He was a couple weeks away a couple weeks ago…time to move on from this overpaid bum…

 

[lukin2006]

After the Anlae release I really thought the culture was changing…it appears not to be the case.

Cap hit of 25 million.

6-6, NFCE will be wide open.

more like 8-4 ill take it il also take 11-6 feel its still get us back many layer right before the playoffs to improve our chances.

What the heck would saving $16m do for us right now?

Is this a real question?

This seems to remind me of the past when the Cowboys would say an injury would be a couple of days, it would turn into a few weeks. If they said a few weeks it would turn into a few months.

Lame.

I get it, we overpaid for him. What difference does it make now? It's not like he is never playing another down.

Yeah there is no bigger DLaw fan here than myself but if he can't stay on the field he cannot help the team. He needs to get back on the field and make an impact or an exit strategy from his contract needs to be a top priority this offseason. I assume at some point we WILL get both him and Gregory on the field for a stretch of games.. That's when we will see the true face of this defense and find out if it's capable of helping us make a deep playoff run. The current group has one and done written all over it.. I don't care how good the offense is..

 

[Doomsday77]

Is this a real question?

Ok, maybe not using correct grammar here. My point is no one has a crystal ball, hindsight and all of that nonsense. Yes, we overpaid. This is nothing new.

A couple weeks ago he said a few weeks away

4 is a few and 2 is a couple.
