Vikings got Sheldon

[RCATES]

$11M for Sheldon means 4th rd not a 3rd compensatory. He basically chose the better team. He knows Hawks window has closed.

Phew. Glad that's over.

 

[naholmes]

Do we even get a comp pick now?

Yes, it doesn’t matter that it’s a 1 year deal.

 

[Str8OuttaSkittles]

no still a 3rd im hearing and also sheldon can do one always thought of him as a mercinary
facepalming right now

 

[Kinger95]

He’s not 3 mill better than dontari Poe so whatever that’s fine. I don’t think he’s ever been on a playoff team so it’s not like he’s a winner

I heard 1 yr $15M on 710, but it may have been a guess. Either way, I don't pay him over 8M anyway. He did not have the expected impact here to overpay.

On the contrary. He's a quitter. An infectious disease that can spread.

Well....

Wish we had that 2nd rounder and Kearse back. :?

 

[bbsplitter]

Question - why didn't the hawks transition tag Richardson? Wouldn't that have been close to the reported 11 mil they were willing to pay him?

 

[BBQHawk]

Window closed? Suicidal hawks fans rage on.


Eeyore lives

I dunno if DT is a position when you wanna spend big cash . IMO the difference between a 12 mill a year guy and 8 mill is sometimes pretty minimal. And I also feel like there’s always good DT’s in every draft even into the 40’s

It hurts even more when you say it out aloud.

i take poe if nobody could see what was coming with sheldon then.. was clear he goes where the money is im certain he was asked half way through the season would he stay and he said whoever has the biggest check

Richardson is the quitter IMO. He gave up some huge run plays in his gap several times last year that were costly. Seemed very up and down with effort.

 

[Coug_Hawk08]

What an awful trade. 2nd round plus 8m for marginal impact. Now we will be lucky to even net a 4th round comp.

FO flipped out on the Malik Injury, we would have been fine.
