I believe Malcolm wanted a reworked/new contract this time last off season, but he for sure said once the season ended that he wouldn't be coming back on his current salary. So it doesn't seem like it was the FO giving him the opportunity to get one last big deal. He forced their hand by saying publicly that he wasn't playing with the current financials. His loss will definitely be felt... given that he was our surest tackler, defensive and possibly overall team leader and most consistent defender not named Cox.

I really hope this shyt isn’t true, because that would mean we just passed on an elite receiver who ended up getting traded for nothing.
And I guess I understand letting Malcolm Jenkins go, but we've done nothing to upgrade that spot. Mills is trash and McLeod wasn't great last season.

fukking kidding me??
I knew that sounded suspect af that Howie wouldn't know about Hopkins being available.
It looks like we’re chilling this season and see what comes to us instead of tryna force the issue.
IE, we not tanking but we not about to put ourselves in a tough predicament we can’t get out of in the future (Alshon Jeffery)

Howie and Doug did say we was gonna get younger this year.
I agree that's the right move but signing FAs under 26 with upside seems like a no-brainer

Think we should explore signing Eric Reid if he comes at a $5M to $6M price tag
