I don’t want to start cutting good players like Boyd if we don’t have to. 8 mil isn’t that much.
If we cut Hopkins, all of a sudden now we need three new starters. I’d rather add more bodies to the oline and not subtract them. A lot of times it takes lineman 2 years to fully recover from an acl.
Use that 72 mil (if that’s what it is) and resign your own + sign two legit offensive lineman and all of a sudden the line looks a lot better going into the draft. We need depth but also better starters on the right side for sure.
Yes cutting Hopkins causes us to improve at that position and maybe thats why we cut TB as well. Thats $14M. we can get Bozeman for far less.
Why would we EVER pay for a player who costs more than his production at the expense of keeping JoeyB healthy?
Can you name every WR that played in Super Bowls with Tom Brady? Brady, oline and defense took the money. That should be us. Tough D, awesome oline and Joe can make everyone else look good. In my opinion.
