Edge rushers are flying off the shelf and getting PAID. I have a strange feeling It’s going going to be Terry Fontenot stealing him to Atlanta.

Alright guys.

Put LSUJD_04 down for "Trey Hendrickson will have a new team before the day is out"

Hopefully we get lucky and he's out with a shoulder for the 2 games vs us in that case.

With as hard as it is to find good pass rushers I don’t see why we can’t pay Hendrickson even with the cap situation. You can give him 3 years $30 million and backload the shite out of it when the cap will be much higher so he only costs $2-3 million on the books this year. I just have no confidence in Davenport shouldering the load and while I like Granderson, we know what we have with Trey.

Can we pull out the old Exclusive Franchise tag?

You're assuming he would agree to that, though. Given the market, he may not. If he leaves, let's just hope for a huge deal to increase the likelihood of a compensatory pick next year.

I wish we would have put a 2nd round tag on him.

Easy 2nd rounder in my opinion.

He is not a restricted FA, so we cannot put a 2nd round tag.

Okwara just got 3/$39 to stay in Detroit and he would be the guy I’d most closely out Trey’s market value at.

They are going to give extensions to all 3 of Ramcyzk, Lattimore and Williams this offseason so that solves the remaining cap issue. We are only $5 mil over right now. Extending all 3 will give you about $20 million more. The draft class will cost about $7 mil assuming they keep the picks they have which won’t happen. So you end up with around $7-8 million to sign free agents. Extending Armstead frees up another $6-10 million so they have room to add good players. I’m sure getting Jameis is the first priority.

Shaq just got 4/$72M , ~$18M/yr.

I’d imagine Trey commands somewhere in the $12-$15M/yr range, just my guess.

No way is he being signed to a 3/$30M contract.

Barrett and Hendrickson is not a goo comparison. Barrett is on another level. I could see Trey getting anywhere from $9-13 mil annually but not $15 mil.

It probably will be the Jets. They have over 60 mil in cap space. Hendrickson has the luxury of going to whoever overpays him the most.

The Jets suck arse & they have a lot of money to spend.

Looks like Trey to Jets is going to be a done deal pretty soon.

Jets are about to get a plus pass rusher & also gashed against the run. He has to be a starting DE with that high of a salary.

Yeah no doubt. For whatever reason we let guys like hicks and ninkovich head out the door and keep guys that can’t produce
