I wonder if the Steelers would've made the playoffs if they kept Dobbs and started him over Rudolph/Hodges. If not, then they basically got a free fifth from Jacksonville.

I mean that does seem to be Rosens career trajectory. It’s not really his fault but it rarely is

They're not young prospects, they're very clearly in the adolescent stage of their careers! There's a difference!

200k vs whatever league minimum is seems like a wash when he's already had his big rookie bonus. and you can either sit next to tom brady and arians at practice or the browns. sure he can get hurt and be out of the league but this seems like a good gamble for rosen.

I really wish dude would just take a QB coach position already. He already did it unofficially with the Jets and hell even with the Browns (JFF credits McCown for that one good stretch he had). Just take the drat job and stop getting hit old man.

Hasn’t McCown made enough money in his career to not have to spend the effort to stay in NFL shape for just 12k a week?

I think being a backup or practice squad guy may pay more (And potentially have better hours?) than being a position coach. And if last season is any indication, I think McCown also genuinely wants to keep doing what he can, and potentially play if needed.

Position coaches from a quick googling get 300-400k a year and aren't hit by large men. I get he really wants to compete I just like him enough that I don't want to see him get wailed on by large men half his age.

Ah, I forgot the practice squad guys only get paid during the season, not like normal player contracts. I think it was McCown last year or before where it was pointed out he was making more as a backup/third QB somewhere than he’d get as a position coach even though he was filling that role too.

Loomis may have failed this time, but damned if he didn't try. https://www.nfl.com/news/inside-wild-backstory-behind-saints-last-ditch-effort-to-sign-jadeveon-clowney https://twitter.com/RapSheet/status/1302688128843554817 Making a final push late Saturday to land star pass rusher Jadeveon Clowney, the Saints got creative, attempting to pull off a move believed to be the first of its kind in NFL history – but couldn't get final clearance from the league. The Saints were working with another team towards a unique sign-and-trade deal that would've maneuvered around salary cap constraints to bring the free-agent Clowney to New Orleans. But talks fell apart over the NFL's willingness to approve such a deal, and Clowney wound up agreeing to terms with the Tennessee Titans on a one-year deal late Saturday night. According to sources informed of the talks, the Saints didn't feel they could compete financially with the Titans' offer – $12 million, plus $3 million in incentives – given budgetary reasons. So, they approached another team to find a workaround. (Sources didn't confirm the other team, which hereafter is referred to as "Team X", but it is believed to be the Cleveland Browns, who have ample cap space and a front office known for having a propensity for creativity, most memorably on display in their 2016 trade for quarterback Brock Osweiler.) The sides discussed parameters of a deal in which Team X would've signed Clowney to a one-year, $15 million contract and paid him a $5 million signing bonus. Then, Team X would've immediately traded Clowney to the Saints, who would've sent Team X a second-round draft pick, as well as a player to take additional salary off New Orleans' books. The Saints would've paid Clowney's remaining $10 million salary. Just one problem: The teams got word late Saturday the NFL was unlikely to approve such a deal. Other teams have, in essence, paid cash for picks in the past, including the Browns, who agreed to take on Osweiler's $16 million guaranteed salary in a deal that netted them a second-round draft pick. Last year, the Dolphins paid Ryan Tannehill a $5 million signing bonus on a restructured contract to send him to the Titans. And Clowney himself received a $7 million signing bonus last August from the Texans to help complete a trade to Seattle. But several executives from different NFL teams said they couldn't recall any other team executing such a deal involving a free agent who was literally only signed to trade him. One exec summed up the interpretation of the league's bylaws as: "Fundamentally, you can't trade cash." The Saints have long been willing to convert large base salaries to signing bonuses or add voidable years to contracts to free up short-term cap space. But there is great uncertainty about the 2021 salary cap, given a projected multibillion-dollar revenue shortfall related to COVID-19 that could cause it to drop from $198.2 million per club in 2020 to as little as $175 million. Entering this weekend's cuts, the Saints had over $260 million in cap commitments for 2021, according to NFL Players Association records. The Saints continued to try to rework their offer late into Saturday night, but without help, they couldn't match the Titans' offer. And after 5½ months on the free-agent market, Clowney decided to head to Tennessee instead.

I don't want to see the Saints succeed but that wouldn't been really cool to see. Have any other sports done something like that? The NBA does three way trades a bunch but I don't think they've done another team signs a player for a second team?
