Justin Herbert - Bolts Franchise QB Official Discussion

[dmac_bolt]

Maybe that was the problem.

We hung on too long to those guys.

IMO he doesn't have the "it" factor. The niceness is just another red flag on top. But he will make some dazzling throws and our attention span as a species is just too short.

I have to fire you as our GM. If you think removing Herbie from the roster will improve the team, you just can’t work here.

Popper’s prediction for Herbert: My projection for Herbert’s extension if it happens this offseason: six years, $295 million, $135 million fully guaranteed at signing.

If that is what the contract is, he'll be 31 when his contract is up and in line for another payday.

Can Herbert win a championship while taking up so much of the cap?

He hasn’t even won a playoff game

Mahomes is in his 3rd SB.
Second while taking up cap.

It is definitely possible.

I love Herbert. He's a top five quarterback. But no individual player is worth taking up so much cap space that you can't field a championship-caliber team.

Most people have Tom Brady as the greatest player ever. I don't, but I consider him the smartest. Or perhaps he was the luckiest because he had a rich supermodel wife who allowed him to accept less money so his general managers could put better teams around him than Peyton Manning and Aaron Rodgers had.

If you're Patrick Mahomes paired with Andy Reid...yes. Is Herbert as great as Mahomes? We shall see. Will Brandon Staley ever develop into a coaching legend? Not very likely.

Josh Allen is ring-less. Aaron Rodgers has only one in 16 years as a starter, which is ridiculous. Peyton had only two, and one of them was after he took a pay cut so Elway could build a great defense in 2015, a year in which Peyton sucked and Brock Osweiler started some games.

As much as I love Herbert, I'm not rooting for him to become the richest player in NFL history.

Eli has two and he is the worst of the bunch you named. And he was taking up cap.

Just saying there is a chance.

Doesn't matter if his cap hit is 50 or 20 mil.

We have a curse to overcome.
