Get StartedWe need J. Bell.
You probably need to break out the Layne jersey.
Wow, this was sad. People need to be fired for this. And as controversial as some may find this idea, maybe entertain trading Calvin. He is the only person I feel that has any value. Might have to eat some of his contract, but I think we could get a haul for him.
This product on the field is atrocious.
You can't really eat contract in the NFL. When you trade a player, the signing bonus money stays with your team (that is, you're on the hook for paying it and the cap space associated with it). The yearly salary (normally non-guaranteed) goes to the team receiving the player. You can't just toss in money or retain part of the contract to grease the wheels on a trade like baseball.
