Not resigning Davenport Armstead, and Hill will save a lot of cash next year.

We have a serious case of the next man up syndrome.

We have next men capable of stepping up.

True Dat. Surprisingly. Especially with all the talent we let walk gave us with the contract restructures during the offseason.

Don't be surprised to see a new face on the roster with the new cap space Loomis just created with the restructured contracts.

i’ll bring another player in here as a comparison. Let’s look at Peat. He was taken at 13 and no trades were made to get that position. Everyone loves to attack him and his play. They make fun of him and joke about what a bad pic he was. Yet has been there and played through injuries and remained a starter. In his first 3 years he started 37 games.

Davenport was taken at 14 and three picks were used to get in that position. The injury excuse is made constantly for him. In his first 3 years he has started 14 games.

I’m not even saying Peat has been a “better” lineman than Davenport has been DE. But I do see a double standard in the way Peat is “evaluated” considering the comparison of draft capital invested.

As for the draft picks spent discussion, I know all don't feel the same way. However, my view is that Davenport plays in an performance driven sport, if you pay a high price for a player, then that naturally comes with expectations.

If I bought a car for £25000 and it broke down more than a £500 car did, I'd be annoyed.

On the bright side Peyton Turner was impressive against Carolina..
