OT Josh “Jimmy” Simmons (Official Thread)

2.5-3MM for a proven commodity OL?

Do we even have a choice?

How do you know he’ll rebound from his injury?
You don’t.

You’re betting the odds that he will based on general medical guidance on his type of injury and any detailed info he is sharing with you. All of that goes against whoever you think you are going to get instead of him with those same dollars.

Welcome to professional free agency. Good thing we have a top talent evaluator and developer like Frye on our side. I’m certain he’ll make the right decision.

I’m not against paying him. I’m just concerned that he’s going to struggle returning from the injury. He’s a big guy and his weight could be an issue and hamper him.

Are you better off trying to use that money for a the NW tackle or another transfer?

Yep, tough decisions…

They need to head for Costco to get the quantity they need to unfuck the OL.

I mean that’s a lot of money but he’s a first round tackle when healthy so he’d be worth it provided he stays healthy.

I wonder in situations like this if 1.5mil+ another 1.5 if he stays healthy would work?

But even if Simmons said it’s all or nothing you make that deal.
