All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
It's not tricky at all. We would have to pay someone to take his contract off our books.
Yet we'd have to replace EJ which despite what some would say, to me, is no easy task. As he's the list of UFAs to be. None of them really have EJ's upside and doubt we get any them as cheap as EJ is getting paid. You could make the argument for Locker but I don't like his accuracy and inability to stay healthy.

Most of the guys on this list are unacceptable. I am not sure how Manual is going to respond to his current situation that certainly is a tale that needs to be told. However, we need QB play this is not about money or draft picks. If Manual is going to play the way he played this season he certainly needs to be replaced. I hope he wakes up and watches Orton sling that ball around and decides to put some frigging zip in his step for cripes sakes!

Light either comes on and we have a future QB, or it's next draft and we have no first round pick where other people do. If the light never comes on, he'll be riding the pines here until his contract runs out.
EJ was 2-2. For a back up, that's pretty acceptable.
he also looks pretty dialed in during the games. he was fist pumping the win in some of the replays after the TD. He seems like a good soldier, we have him for a couple more years and he always was a project QB.
i think you want to keep him until someone unseats him. if we draft another guy and he outperforms EJ, then ej gets moved or cut. otherwise, no need to establish another hole on a team that his having a lot of holes created by injury.
