Barrett to Dolphins

[Third Eye]

Performance steadily declining, hence he was cut because his performance was not worth his salary and cap figure. Sound familiar?

I mean I would rather have kept AVG, but maybe he didn’t want to stay. This at least gives us a serviceable vet at edge till Chubb and Phillips return.

 

[circumstances]

This years Melvin Ingram. One year 5m would be my guess

except Shaq started every game last season, and Ol' Melly hadn't started a full season for quite a few years before we signed him.

i think there is a vast difference between 2024 shaqster, and 2022 ingram.

He's better than Ingram at this point. At least I hope he's better (faster!)

Led the team in pressures and coming off an injury doesn’t sound that bad to me.

 

[Sticky Gloves]

Would have highly preferred AVG at this money

 

[eMCee85]

I like it I like it!

 

[Jssanto]

Good signing. We should still draft an edge rusher to start opposite Barrett to start the season. Then when Phillips and Chubb become available we can work them in slowly to the rotation.

Do we have any timeline guess on when they can return?

Van Ginkel wasn't asking for 5 million with incentives.

 

[The Goat]

Older pass rushers can give you better stats than every down production.
You just can't plug them in as a three down player. They are rotational players.

Yep. This.

Would have highly preferred AVG at this money

He can earn up to 9mill. Slightly diff to AVG contract

 

[Feverdream]

AVG got 14m guaranteed... plus 6 more available if he plays a second year.

Barrett's contract hasn't been listed yet, but it is probably 6-7m with incentives that he probably won't get.

Realistically, the AVG contract is about double the one we handed out.

 

[ForksPhin]

Anyone who is still ripping Grier is just blinded by hate right now. The moves we’ve made so far with letting players leave and signing smartly-priced contributors have been excellent. I’m actually far more pleased with the team than I expected to be at this point.

 

[phinsforlife]

why the ghost of shaq barrett, instead of just keeping van ginkel, who we actually know? i dont understand this one

 

[cullenbigcstill]

His dip in production came from an injury and to the loss of his daughter in a drowning accident.
