What will Jimmy's trade value be in the offseason?

LOL, this conspiracy theory about Jimmy is funny.

Say what you will about the guy's skill level, but the man played through a chipped bone and torn ligament in his throwing hand. I can only imagine how much that hurts. He endured a season where he had to answer questions on a near-weekly basis about how he felt being the starter and having his replacement under him. And he played and competed his butt off.

This is a competitive QB that wants to win a Super Bowl.

Ideally, Jimmy would've gone into the offseason healthy, and get traded to a competitive team of his choice while he still had his No Trade Clause and a team was willing to absorb his salary as-is. The shoulder surgery hurts him immensely. At the rate this is going, he's not going to get cut/traded until his shoulder is healed, and it's going to be relatively late in the offseason when all the other QB dominoes have fallen. As a free agent, he's likely going to end up on a bad team and/or a bad QB situation, presumably at a lower contract price than his $27M. Or, if he stays, he could still earn the $27M, but it's gonna be a long awkward season being on a team that, at the end of the day, doesn't want him and has his replacement.

The surgery needed to happen for his long-term health as a QB, but it really hurt him in the short-run on where he goes in terms of QB situation this offseason.

No it doesn't. No agent is gonna make you get surgery you don't need and lose out on millions of dollars. That $7.5m is only gtd until he's cleared. Why would they fake that s**t so he has no trade market? It hurts him more than anything.

i'm not saying all of his theories have legs, but jimmy is influenced by his agent as i brought up another incident

So give up a huge extension for 7.5 million? 10% of 7.5million over 10% of 20 + million?

No. That was just some b******t Martellus Bennett was spewing. Not one other person backed that up

I thought he was referring to the Hawks game last season.

But, yeah, I don't buy what Bennett was selling. That guy is a jackass. No way players (current and former) go to bat for him, as often as they do, if he was that guy.

without getting into the specifics/possibilities of this deal I do agree ANY deal with jimmy will include conditional pick(s). how could they not with his history?

Yeah and we can pull one over on em if we tie it to team success not to snaps or games played

He would have needed to be traded in order to see if he would have passed a physical.

Activating that injury clause after the no trade clause was a great strategy on the part of JG and his agent. Doing it a week before free agency was a way of sticking it to our front office.

he could have had the surgery after being traded, he would have passed a physical just fine even with the shoulder.thumb injuries. But he and his agent knew there were no takers in the trade market.

Smart move by JG and his team man...

Jimmy having just had surgery on his shoulder means he can't throw a football in the moment or have full range of motion of that shoulder.

Therefore he cannot pass a physical. It's pretty much common sense dude.

You can still trade for a player who doesn't pass a physical but you assume any and all risk in doing so.

So now it's a career ending shoulder injury?

The narrative just keeps on changing.

We all know he can be traded with the injury, but before being traded he would need to find a team willing to trade for him.
