I was going to say whatever Toney's cap hit is, offer him that and cut Toney. The bad news is OBJ ain't playing anywhere for 2.5 mil and change, and it would go all the way against our cap to cut Toney this year. Next year, Toney has a 14.4 mil cap number if we keep him, but nothing to release him (5th year option and all, I'm assuming).
Long story short - Toney is too cheap to cut to make room for OBJ, that will expect at least three times what Toney is going to cost us, not to mention eating the 2.5 mil to sign a guy to a 7-9 million dollar contract.

Watson had Pat and OBJ had Lamar. OBJ would have had much higher numbers if he had Pat as his QB JUST for the sake he can actually consistently catch the ball.:-) [Reply]

someone post OBJs separation stats on here, they were God awful. Not saying I'm against it on a skinny deal, but I don't think OBJ wants skinny, he already has a ring. [Reply]

OBJ ain't coming here, and Toney ain't getting cut. Unfortunately.
I just hope Toney can get his head right, because he’s a weapon if he does. [Reply]

Not sure what the problem with Toney is/was (besides the obvious drops). They never seemed to send him downfield. His most productive game as a Chief playing WR seemed to be his first. Maybe he just couldn’t get the playbook or maybe he just isn’t that good. [Reply]
Toney was injured from the first moment of training camp with the meniscus tear and surgery...didn't practice and played that first game and couldn't catch a cold.... all down hill from there.
I still think there is still a chance of him being somewhat productive....but he's injury prone, his fast twitch moves and violent running style just cause injuries at this level and makes him inconsistent. [Reply]
