WFT's Off-Season Thread

[Monkeydad]

Great news with Payne.

The #Dolphins and Washington Football Team are in agreement on a trade to send guard Ereck Flowers to WFT in a deal involving a swap of late-round picks, sources say. The deal is being finalized. Frees up some money for Miami, while giving Washington an OL to compete to start.

There goes the Guard pick in RD1

maybe that means they are planning a draft day trade involving Scherff?! Then i would love this trade!! We would be getting his replacement at a much lower cost and using him as ammo to move up and take QB (Lance or Fields) or LB (Parsons) or ???

It's possible but I doubt it. Flowers plays LG so I don't think we acquired Flowers to replace Scherff.

Remember when everyone on here ( including me) was just killing Bruce for signing Flowers? He was arguably our best linemen and was pretty damn good at LG. This is a really good move if he can still retain that level of play we saw from him the one year he was here. Good move WFT!

Sweitzer would replace Sherff in his scenario.

I just see 26 million per year for 2 guards and think why would they add 9 million if they didn't think they could do something with the 17 million that Scherff is getting . . . thats a TON of $$$ for 2 guards!

Solid move.. WFT's plans for Oline is now intriguing . So far, the Oline will be: Lucas, Flowers, Roullier, Scherff and Moses.

Another solid move. I don't think it changes the draft plan though.

He comes cheaper than his first stint in 2019, and will compete for a starting spot. The O-line is deeper now.

Ereck Flowers thought he could get away from us? Muhahahaha!!

[Monkeydad]

I like it. We basically saved Flowers career, he was horrible in NJ, solid with us.

[MTK]

I'd really doubt we're moving Scherff.

18 million for Scherff

9M for Flowers

5M for Schweitzer

plus a 3rd (martin) and 4th rounder (charles)

-----------------------

vs a total of 14.5M for our tackles, 15M for our WRs .. positions much more impactful then guards ...

I dont fucking get it

and I dont view Flowers as an upgrade over Schweitzer .. and its a massive overpay .. wtf

Flowers is a JAG, Schweitzer is slightly above a jag

-----

Couldnt we have used that 9 MILLION DOLLAR CAP HIT this year on signing Scherff long term and reducing his cap hit this year or resign Allen?

9 million in a 187.5M cap year is huge ... for a average at best starter .. at a position we have already invested heavy resources in .. for a position that yo shoudnt be heavily investing in ..

I think Wes and Scherff's contracts both expire after this year. So they won't be on the books next year. Not sure how many years Flowers has left. Hopefully at least 1 more.
