Rumor: Mortensen: Witten to retire **merged**

[CouchCoach]

Uh, he couldn't have made this decision before the draft?

Yeah, my thoughts exactly but maybe the job wasn't offered until now? They just had the auditions, the one that the tallywacker texter failed.

 

[CATCH17]

Ian Thomas,Indiana.
Mike Gesicki,Penn St.

Gesicki isn't a traditional Y tight end though.


Goedert is the best pure Y available imo. Ian Thomas...


The move should've been Eifert. Witten retiring late screwed that up.

I’m sad for Witten. He deserved a ring. He probably looks around and knows this team re-building after letting Dez and Romo go.

 

[Rayman70]

damn it.

 

[glimmerman]

I would normally assume that, but the "meet today with Jerry before making the decision final" seemed really odd.

Very odd. Something is happening. And Witten don’t like it.

 

[remdak]

Wow, the Vander Esch pick pissed him off that much

 

[tyke1doe]

Wow. Team leader leaving his team in the dust. Go chase the $

Better to go out in your own than to be Dezed.

 

[StarMan2112]

The disrespect Witten gets from some of you is disgusting.

 

[bayeslife]

He couldn’t have retired two months ago?? I mean I love Jason but this is just another need

 

[StarBoyz83]

If it's true I'll miss him. Hes for sure a hofer. Dont think he will be missing too much this season anyway. Guess its finally time to get some young athletics te's going.

 

[nightrain]

This is very strange. Something happened to change his mind. Something he don’t like.

From what I understand, he's been in talks with MNF for a couple of years now

 

[Rayman70]

This is very strange. Something happened to change his mind. Something he don’t like.

nah..I think he was taking his time deciding.

Based off this, only showed interest in David Wells?
San Diego St, same place Escobar came from.

 

[BlindFaith]

I would normally assume that, but the "meet today with Jerry before making the decision final" seemed really odd.

I'm sure he was waiting on if he got the gig. Didn't he just interview for it a few weeks ago?

The team knew he was in decline. I think they are ok with Jarwin, Swaim and maybe Rico.

It wouldn't surprise me to see them add a guy later in the draft now.

 

[Rayman70]

Goedert at 50 is very real now. I would even trade up to get him.

 

[408Cowboy]

How will it affect the cap? And how does it compare to if he did this before the restructure?

 

[CATCH17]

I’m sad for Witten. He deserved a ring. He probably looks around and knows this team re-building after letting Dez and Romo go.

Agreed.

I wish we could've got rid of Garrett too. It would be a nice clean start.

 

[Jenky]

Trouble for DAK.

 

[SportsGuru80]

Gold Jack Wit done.
