Adam Caplan wrote on his Twitter page Monday that Anderson's $2 million roster bonus is due on March 19. "The clock starts ticking for players who have roster or option bonuses coming up. Derek Anderson's $2 M RB is due on 3/19, source said," he wrote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballpeen Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 Nothing earth shattering here...we just saw stallworth released. He had 1 mil due 3-1...it was easy to make that decision now and allow him to start seeking his other options. Anderson won't be as simple as we will: A...try to get him in to a friendlier deal, or B...try to find some sort of trade, which probably couldn't happen until "A" happens. I guess there is a "C"....that would be trade Quinn before we have to make a decision on Anderson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mopaji Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 So basically the tweet says "If DA is going to be cut, the most likely time for it to happen is before his roster bonus kicks in. We don't really knoww if he'll be cut but if it were to happen, it would be before he gets his 2 million" This should be nominated for the most insignificant thread of the year.

"B" you may disagree, but DA's trade value is zero. "C" Never say never, but it's 10X more likely Quinn is on the training camp roster than Anderson. But in the best interests of the team, one or the other HAS to be gone & Holmgren's smart enough to realize that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gips Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 I fully expected DA to be sent packing well before the march 19th roster bonus ,he just isnt worth what he is paid... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. T Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Sounds like this whole QB controversy will come to an end. Phil Savage created a monster with the contract he gave DA and then not being able to trade him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gipper Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 I don't know. If the Roster bonus is ONLY 2 million dollars, (Yea, more $ than any of us have, but still peanuts in the NFL Monopoly money game) and if they at all would expect DA to compete even for a backup slot, the 2 mill doesn't seem to be a lot in the scheme of things for a "potential" decent backup QB. DA was the QB for a couple of games they won at the end of the season, wasn't he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, i know releasing him the the probable move....I am just saying it isn't as easy as the move to release stallworth. There are still some variable at play that the team will probably try to explore up to the end. daydog...it was more a board joke then namecalling....sorry you took it as such.

Drunkandstoopid Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 This all relies on what Holmgren and Mangini think. If they want DA on the roster in some respect, the 2 mil might not bother them, more likely you'll see a new contract dropping this years price tag with more for DA IF they decide to keep him after that. Most of the people here can't keep in mind that this team is essentially building from the ground up. I didn't expect them to win their last 4 games, but I expected better play the last quarter of the season than any time of the season. QB was the last of their worries this season, and may be the last of their worries next season... Holmgren even said so a week or so ago, the QB's gonna look bad if the line can't block and the receivers can't catch.... He pretty much described the Browns' QB situation the last year or two. I still think he keeps one QB, probably DA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA was the QB for a couple of games they won at the end of the season, wasn't he? And to go along those lines....if some deal could be worked out, DA is more attractive to a team if they don't have to pay the bonus. A bonus paid DA and a pick might be enough to get Kolb or some other QB, or some other deal. That is why i said i think there are variables at play that don't make it as easy as simply releasing DA today. Why hold him now if you know he's worthless, sucks, and everything else??

HaydenFox Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 On a related note WTAM was reporting the Browns have shown interest in McNabb this morning. Today on espn chris mortensen was talking about the qb situation and how many teams have expressed interest in all 3 quarterbacks. The only real specifics he gave out of all of the teams was that the rams had expressed a lot of interest in Vick and that the browns and heckert had indeed enquired about and showed some serious interest in kevin kolb. He didnt really go into any kind of detail but he did in fact say these things about the rams and browns. Also he said that he believes andy reid is very serious about mcnabb returning to philly next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT (and this is only my opinion) that holmgren will push for DA to stay and opt to get rid of quinn. remember holmgren was in the northwest while anderson played at oregon state. probably took in a couple of games.

Zombo Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 If we were to acquire Kevin Kolb would all of the Quinn Fags become Kolb Smokers? Talk about untested QBs ... Kolb has a 68.9 rating in 130 attempts ... and doesn't appear to be mobile at all with 21 carries for -1 yards. He and Quinn came out of the same draft, but Quinnn was drafted higher, has more experience and more mobility. Where does Kolb Mania come from other than we have a Philly GM? The guy has had one good game and it came against the venerable Kansas City defense. Let's pry McNabb loose and draft a guy.

Zombo --bunch of Kolb Smokers man, people get all upset at the mention of anything not interesting to them. nobody's smoking kolb (i know i ain't). you'd rather have the old guy come in than someone that will be around for 5 or 6 years? it's not like he's the only thing this team is missing, so basically we're still in the rebuilding stage. who wants to go from a team that's a couple of wins away from the super bowl to a team that's 2 or 3 years away? the whole idea of having to pick sides: quinn or anderson, is flippin' gay in my book. f 'em all, big and small!
