Not anywhere near where CGM is as far as needing to be paid superstar money. Being paid almost the same as Thomas? That’s just goofy.

That was a bad signing, imho, a very, very bad signing.

Its that point, i dont think anyone saying trade Thomas is anything to do with him as a player. Its the fact the teams is so far over the top of the cap and some changes are going to be needed and you look at where it could be trimmed.

The Peat and Hill contracts where the bad ones imo. If Hill was the future at QB he would have beat Teddy out a year back.

In a ideal world the cap would have jumped like expected and you'd be making the contract changes and a few cuts,extensions to sort out the difference and keeping the core together. The roster salary is very very heavily weighted to a few players.
