At least JJ put an end to this foolishness. Enough with the Tomlin BS. Notice that they picked up a UDFA FB while not resigning FB Watt? What happened to Tomlin's big speech about signing brothers there? I thought there were so many great reasons for it? Not so much with Watt now? What happened?

What happened is Derek Watt’s contract ended.

We just signed Connor last year and Herbig bros this year.

I think once both contracts end we may not resign one of them or wither of them depending on age, performance and cap structure.

I believe you are the only one who truly
believe all we do is sign bros. That was never the case.

and did JJ really put an end to this? The dude is retired. No one ever believed this was going to happen.. oh wait, you thought.. lmao :p

Anyone who led you to believe that JJ could walk in and sign a contract for us was lying to you.

His rights still belong to another team.

So it's good or bad that they replaced cutesey brother Derek Watt?

But, if the brother thing was so important why didn't they re-sign him? I mean, Tomlin did a video on the subject and how crucial it was, why haven't they re-signed Watt if it's so awesome?

probably because our FO doesn’t use absolutes when discussing these things.

really important doesn’t mean “by any means necessary” or “lifetime sibling contract”

[feltdizz]

so you want Derek to return? :)

Well, the Watt contract doesn't involve either of the above, no now what? Booooooooooooooiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnn nnnnggggggggggggggg. "He went there but da ting went der."

Yea, we just NEED those 9 attempts for 21 yards, (2.3 avg) and 1 TD for $3 mill. How could we live without them? And, plus he's interictal in our 24th rushing game, per attempt, as well. He is a must in that 4.2 ypc effort. So, why hasn't he been re-signed? Tomlin spent the time and energy to do an entire video on the importance of signing brothers, after all.

He explained why he felt it was an advantage, nowhere did he say it was "crucial". Those are your words.

He hasn’t been resigned because we replaced him with a younger, more athletic brother.

You were saying?????????? Odd that right after Rooney made him shoot this video they didn't go into any contract talks with Derek Watt, isn't it? It looks like Tomlin got told "Knock off the brother crap" to some degree. No more $3 million FBs who virtually produce nothing. Budda bing, zap, powie!

Not odd at all. They moved on from Watt for another brother who looks to be more versatile in the passing game.

Only thing odd is trying to make it into more than it is. Players get released or re-signed every year. What’s weird is thinking being a brother is enough to never get cut or released.

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, right. Why was D. Watt signed again? We were told how awesome he was gonna be...yea, not so much. Brother connection helped little, team was worse due to his signing.

D Watt was signed to play FB and play ST’s. Who the hell thought DWatt was going to lead us to the mountain top?

Nick Herbig looked pretty damn good last night 1.5 sacks , 2 QB hits , blew up a couple run plays ... what more can ya ask from the rookie in his first in stadium look

I really think people are underestimating him due to his size. He seems to be more impressive than Dupree or Highsmith looked at this stage.

I agree , but the key word is at this stage ... lets see where he stands in a few more weeks ... I for one am definitely hopeful that we just restocked the cupboard before it was empty

[Oviedo]

Cutsie brother play from the Heywards and Herbigs are going to win games for us

And we can just continue to laugh at the annoying little gnat who coined the phrase
