I love this guys game. He's a great wing defender, can hit the 3 well, and would be a nice veteran presence in the locker room. He turns 32 in December of this year, so I wouldn't mind throwing a 3 year (3rd year as a team option) $7.5-9 million contract (2.5-3 mill per year) at this guy and play him as our back up wing, or he could possibly start at the 3 depending on who we draft or sign in free agency. What kind of offers do you guys expect him to get in free agency?
Francisco Garcia??

That is too much money for Francisco Garcia. I would expect him to get no more than $6-6.5mil. I don't think he's worth $7.5-9mil.

That's absurd. He's about to turn 32 at the beginning of next season. No way in hell he's going command anywhere near that much.
-
05-06-2013, 05:17 PMFlyGirlTruthfully, I was getting ready to say about $5-5.5 mil. LOL. I mean he can go ahead and ask for it but I surely wouldn't want it to be my team to give it to him.Quote:

Still don't see it. The only teams that would actually value him are teams that are in contention. They aren't crazy enough to even give him 5mil per.

05-06-2013, 05:22 PMFlyGirlWhat DO you see him getting then?Quote:

People are dying to get rid of Gordon (which i can understand), but you want to pay a 32 year old who has only surfaced recently 7.5-9 million dollas cash money?!?!?! Is there some secret i dont know about this guy or something?!?!?

05-06-2013, 05:26 PMSnarlyIf he's going to get a multi-year deal from a contenting team, I'd say about 3-4mil per which is about what Thabo and Allen got. If we're talking about a 1 year deal, it's very optimistic that he receives 5.Quote:

I don't think he meant $7.5-9 per year, I think he meant $7.5-9 over three years.

05-06-2013, 05:31 PMJJackisangryOk that sounds less insane haha. If we had to pay him that much Andy Garcia would have to be part of the deal. That would be nuts.Quote:

05-06-2013, 05:55 PMJJackisangryI like it. Start Andy at Color commentator and move Quinn to the bench. We can sign Gerry V and sit him behing Joel Meyers in the depth chart. Meyers/Gerry V. Andy G./ QB= championshipQuote:

They are top 3ish as far as the worst teams to develop you g talent in the league in my opinion. He also had some nagging injuries through his prime. He played well for Houston down the stretch and in the playoffs this year.Quote:

We dont really need to shed salary anyways in my opinion, and all the big contracts run out when the rookie deals begin anyway. I do talk about Gordon too much though so ill try to shut up lol.Quote:
