Makes sense... Still not impressed with this amature front office.

Its a sad day in ninerland when the fans have more common sense than Lynch. He will probably ask Garnett to be the new kicker.

If we don't at least tag him, I'm done with Lynch. Was already nearly done with him after the trade deadline and this will be the straw that breaks the camel's back for me. Being a doormat and not treating this like a business is exactly how you stay in the basement year-in and year-out.

It's not just about failing to keep arguably the best kicker in the league. It's about being a doormat and not treating this properly like a business.
Not at least tagging one of your best players is how you get worse and the rest of the league gets better. We're going to be one of those bottom-feeder teams that just bends over to the top teams for a loooooooong time if this is truly Lynch's mindset.
He'll probably let Kittle and Buckner go when their contracts expire too. Gotta be nice and let them go to wherever they want!
Seriously I'm appalled that there are actually fans in this thread already defending Lynch. I try to be realistic too but this is a big red flag for me. You don't let one of your best players walk when you have all the cap space in the world. You just don't. You ESPECIALLY don't do it just to be a nice guy when this is a competitive business.
Letting your best players walk is how bad teams stay bad and get worse.
Originally posted by swaccmac1:dudes going back home to Chicago .... we might as well start looking for a new kicker right now. his families in Chicago...I think I read where this dude has a love affair with the windy city. As bad as Chicago seems to need a kicker ,this will be a marriage made in heaven.... by the way, what does the free agent market for kickers look like this year?

best kicker in the league? say what...top 10 sure. Dude is going into his 15th season, he's not some young prime edge rusher or some s**t lol. he's a f**king old kicker.
not tagging a kicker doesn't make this team a doormat lol that's a horrible analogy. We also have no idea if they will or won't you can't tag players yet. I'm fine either way, there's plenty of good young kickers out on the market. I'll take the kicker from KC, NO, NY, Minn, Jags etc....
