Mega "Where's Murray going?" Thread *Merge*

[Bleu Star]

It's getting pretty obvious that none of the contenders want to break the bank for Murray and he doesn't want to play for joke franchises like Jacksonville or Oakland.

I rate the chances of his return at 80% right now for $6-$7 million per.

I'm very hopeful it pans out that way. With each passing day, my confidence grows that Demarco will be back in the saddle. *fingers crossed*

Ryan Matthews to the Eagles...One less supposed suitor for Murray

That's Jerry and Stephen's fault. they did not have to franchise Dez. they could have extended him. but they chose not to do it.

That isn't true. We are willing to pay Dez. What we are not willing to do is overpay him. What he is asking for is unreasonable. The franchised him so they could keep him.

I like that they are trying to use a blueprint now BUT I agree with you on time due to Romo. The guys window is small and unless you get lucky, getting another top QB quickly doesn't just happen. So that begs the question who are you slow-playing/saving it for?

Yeah. Romo's great story(book) ending.

I want it for him. If Favre got it. He should too. Not another Danny white please.

$11.5M for 3 years; $5M guaranteed. Similar to the Gore deal. Demarco should be nervous about those numbers...

Yeah... that's a steal for Mathews even with his injury history. If he stays healthy for 2/3 of the year.... that's a great signing

I think folks just keep regurgitating information no matter the order it actually came at this point just to get pub.

Boom. Now from Schefty.

Bidding war between Raiders and Eagles for Murray's services. Good for Murray, bad for the Cowboys.

 

[erod]

The difference is Cobb and bulaga re signed multi year deals.

As are Beasley, Free, and eventually, Dez.

I think that's where he ends up. They are considered a contender more so than Jax and Oak and the money is probably more than Dallas is willing to pay.

Boom. Now from Schefty.

Straight BS imo. I think the agent is planting that info. Didn't Chip JUST say his moves were salary cap related? smh

 

[boysfanindc]

Eagles could pay Mathews $4M a year
and Murray $8M a year and would be paying about what Shady was going to cost them.

Plus they get back that fit their scheme better.

@tiffblackmon: In regards to DeMarco Murray- Jags GM David Caldwell says right now there's not a whole lot brewing. #JagsNation

@tiffblackmon: Caldwell had a brief conversation with Murray's agent last night.

I think the best Murray is going to get is 6-7 mill

I disagree. If he can get the whole Dal OL to be included in a trade to his new team, he could easily get and surpass the 10 mill mark.... LOL!

Time will tell with Dez could be a two year thing with him(franchising). I hardly would classify the Beaz and Free with Cobb and bulaga....
