Healthy scratch. Why did they sign him rather than waive him for cap relief??

Even worse.

They, and I’m almost sure of this, signed him to ensure that they could waive him and no one would pick him up.

Really puzzling that JBB didn’t just buy this dude out and improve the roster and now 1.4 mil of cap wasted next year too

 

[Point21]

Philippe Myers May Head to Syracuse Soon

Brisebois outsmarted himself signing this idiot for next year before he played even a game for us.

 

[These Are The Days]

Yeah this is gonna go down as one of the worst trades we've made in a long time. We needed the cap space for sure but holy f*** man. I'd have just taken like 2nd round pick instead

 

[ccman68]

we were never getting anything of value back and we needed to take the contract back to make things work.

we can bury most of the contract next year and there should be no issue

 

[LightningStrikes]

What @ccman68 said. The premature extension is the only head scratcher in all this.

 

[Byrddog]

Told you guys how bad the guy was in Nashville. The only explanation was to take scraps to move Mac’s contract. Even if Meyers is waived he would not be picked up. His value is that negitive.

I never want to see him with a Tampa jersey on again. He is absolutely terrible. It truly is astonishing how bad his decision-making is under pressure. It is like an automatic turnover in the slot, gifting the other team an A+ chance.

[DFC]

Well now we know he can have a big game. Let's see if he can have two.

 

[RussianGuyovich]

Uhhhh didn’t Cole have a shitload of hits?

EDIT: guess he only got credited with 6 hits.
