Rangers9 Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Just one more thing. That year the agents complained to the NFLPA about unusually low salaries a lot of players signed one year deals. Because they felt or they knew that salaries were being rigged. Players don't like to sign one year contracts. And btw this was not the only time the union either made that claim or took the NFL to court on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well Matt Cassell for one last season was traded from the Bills to Dallas and started games. And Kellen Moore who wasn't signed by Dallas until early Sept after getting cut by the Lions played and started a game for Dallas. And I'm sure with all the Qb injuries there's lots of them. And Fitz by the way played well with Houston in 2014 especially towards the end the season just before his injury. And he didn't play well under Gailey after signing that starter's contract.

Moore was on the Cowboys practice squad and backing up cassel and weeden before playing.. Romo seems completely healthy now.. But if he or any other starter went down the team and were interested in signing fitz during season , the team is going to go to the #2 right away. It will be their job to lose first while fitz gets in football shape and learns the system .. So is fitz really going to sit around and wait for a starter to have a yr ending injury, and then wait for the backup to falter ? Lol doesn't sound like a solid plan to me.. Fitz should sign the 3 yr deal and get to work before jets lose patience and bring in another vet to backup geno..

Rangers9 Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 If we're talking about the Cowboys they lost all of their games without Romo. As for Fitz he's been with many teams is smart and could learn a new system quickly. I think right now Kellen Moore is their backup Qb. Dallas has over 6 mil left in cap space but probably could scrounge up some more. I could see Fitz signing there even if Romo is healthy. You know Jerry Jones doesn't want to go through that again. And some people in the NFL think that Fitz is a starting quality Qb just not a franchise Qb. I'm totally speculating but I can see Fitz fitting in on a lot of teams. And there will be injuries. I think his preference would be to stay with the Jets. But I don't think he'll take Mac's 3 year deal. It's a bad deal even if at this moment in time it's his best offer.

I doubt Jerry would pay much more than 6 mil for a #2. And fitz would rather go be a #2 for a yr and risk chance of not playing this yr ? That won't be good for him next yr.. Or he can go back to his comfort zone of Marshall/decker /Gailey. Maybe the jets would be willing to sign fitz for 1 yr 7, 8 mil. But last we know he was telling us all he was " ready " to only accept a 1 yr deal for 12 mil. Which the jets turned down. So as far as you know he is not willing to accept a lower offer at this time.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slats Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 13 hours ago, Rangers9 said: Well we'll see what happens if a guy like Tony Romo goes down again. Last year it killed the Cowboys season. Do you think Jerry Jones would let that happen again. Or let a few million bucks get in his way. It would be a little suspicious don't you think if he didn't at least inquire about Fitz's availability. Or do the owners consider Fitz to be Woody's property. Anyways your argument which you and like 5 other guys keep saying ad nauseum that there is no interest in Fitz so he has to take the Jets offer is full of holes. Because in 2016 there are no job openings except on the Jets. That could change in a second. Hard to take you seriously, criticizing other people's theories, when you're still tossing this horsecrap around. Fitzpatrick remains a free agent in June because his demands far exceed his actual value. That's it, in its entirety. The Cowboys have had ample time to bring in Fitz just to kick the tires, knowing that Romo could break his collar bone brushing his teeth this morning, but they chose not to. They could easily just not be interested. The fact that Fitz is refusing to sign the extremely generous 3/$24M deal in front of him makes him less attractive on the open market. Rather than offer more than that for Fitz, I'd think the 'Boys would either actively get involved in the trade market for a longer term solution (Glennon, Kaepernick), or let their own rookie take some lumps en route to another high pick. Fitzpatrick is a weak armed journeyman in the twilight of his career. The idea that some team is going to want to make him a multi-year starter should their starter go down, or that next year -as Fitz approaches age 35- the starting job offers are gonna start pouring in is ludicrous. He had a strong year with Houston two years ago, and they dumped him for a late conditional pick. Had a career year last year with the Jets, and the Jets are unwilling to commit to more than one year with him as a starter - and that's only if they can lock him up as a backup after that! The rest of the league is disinterested. This market you imagine is all in your imagination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main reason for it is mostly to keep Fitz under contract as a low cost insurance policy for Mac to cover their asses in case the younger Qbs can't take over in 2017 or 2018. I don't recall ever seeing a deal for a Qb like this one. I think (but don't know) he'd take a lower one year deal over that. And if he has a good year for the Jets then be in a better bargaining position assuming there will be other openings in 2017. IMO a take it or leave it offer to a player is not the way to go.

I don't think he's weak armed but he's definitely doesn't have a howitzer and isn't your prototypical starting franchise Qb. But he's a good Qb and in the category of being a starting Qb. And starters get paid more than 3-24. The last two years being really obnoxious deal breakers. Just give him the one year and let him leave. If he plays well he makes more money if he's terrible like you say he loses money. Chances are he'll take the average on a one year ($8 mil) if Mac continues to play hardball.

Indeed, the Jets are offering more than any other team - if any other team is offering anything at all. So yes, that's utter nonsense.

Sorry Dude, you're the one making wild assumptions with your conspiracy theory collusion excuses. I'm looking at the facts of the situation as they stand. There were a number of starting QB openings this year, and teams chose to fill them with guys like RGIII, Mark Sanchez, and Blaine Gabbert rather than turn to Ryan Fitzpatrick. Only Denver even took a look, and it was brief. Fitz had a nice year, but teams know what he is - even if you don't. Most teams will have to go thru their starter and backup before they even consider Fitzpatrick to start for the their team, and even then they'll probably scour the trade market first. And even then, it's unlikely that they'd offer more than 3/$24M. Fitz' entire market is the deal the Jets have offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were not a number of openings if so please list them. Only at Denver and according to reports they contacted Fitz's agent and were interested but that was in March and they couldn't reach an agreement. I think maybe now he wishes he would have signed that deal (reportedly 1 year for 7 mil) but didn't expect this kind of hardball stand by the Jets. He wants to come back but also wants a better deal. As for SF they have Gabbert who started games for them last year and Kap. No way they are going to pay both Kap and Fitz at the same time. We're talking 32 teams and almost no openings in a season. But that could change. As for having to take the Jets offer because it's the best offer. Well a lot of people won't do that if they think the offer is below market. They will either take another position that pays less but offers in the long run a better chance to earn more money. Or decide to stick it out and not sign and hope things change in the future. This is what some players did a few years ago when agents complained about price fixing by owners and contracts were markedly low that year. They signed one year deals for less money. And that is no CT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
