2014 cap hit $18.4ml
2015 $26.4ml
2016 $27.4ml
Though the last two years could be cut.
The question is do you keep him through the contract and hope to lower the cap numbers,cut him loose or trade him away if the right QB becomes available and restart the offense.

My point about the team ageing rapidly is they are all the same age and need long term replacements in the next couple of years.Its the sane question,do you keep them till there best days are gone or let them go for players/picks that can offer more in the long term

It will be what it will be.... If Drew is ok with a substandard line so he gets paid then he will not be getting paid for long. If he can say healthy with a substandard pass blocking line at a cheap price then so be it.

Some people are ok with $8000 in rim riding on $50 tires.
