Not an option. That’s oversimplifying the situation. The reality is he’s on the backside of his career, coming off of a major injury, and moving him saves a substantial amount of money against the cap.

Exactly, i have no confidence a slightly above average tackle coming off a major injury will perform better than a 1st through 3rd round pick, or free agent of similar talent level. The fact there would be a cap savings would be a bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just butt hurt at the prospect of losing both Swartz and Fish. Let me dream they will both be back. 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he doesn’t have trade value so you are right that it’s not an option. you dont know that..or better yet define "much of it" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sith13 1,746 Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Not sure if the estimations were specific for Fisher's case but wasn't the info on him returning by the TC? That's basically when a veteran lineman starts practicing so I think the front-office still has a chance to make their own decision based on performance. oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was someone's time table but if its an achilles tear it could easily be closer to a year. Everything I found on the recovery time was 10-11 months but somewhere someone said he could be back by TC. Time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palangi 788 Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Spencer brown looked pretty good in the senior bowl yesterday. He is a 6'8" 314 lb tackle from Northern Iowa. Could be had in the second round Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad this draft is loaded! oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
