We back from the dead bruh. Only valid argument is whether or not the money was well spent.

Time and health will tell the story.

But there is no valid argument the money was well spent. We retained everyone from the worst interior dline against the run in the league. We spent $40 million to keep a QB who alienates half the fan base and hasnt won a playoff game in his 11 year career and is coming off 4 injuries in 2 years at age 34. If we wanted to alienate half our fan base, at least Kaepernick would have been cheaper and has won playoff games.

There was never any doubt we could get under the cap. It was just a matter of whether we kicked the can or burned down the house to do it. There was no way to get under the cap while unloading the wrong players AND adding the right players. That is the problem with Mickey’s system. Now we have Kellen Moore coaching Payton and Allens players.
