Michael Thomas agrees to 5 year 100 million extension

I love him. I really do. But this is going to wreck this franchise for several years to come with the cap! $61 mil guaranteed is going to make free agency a nightmare in the next couple of years. I can't see how they're going to pay Kamara at this rate.

By that time the cap will be higher, Jordan and Thomas will have restructured, and who knows who the quarterback will be, and what he'll be earning??

The alternative was going into the season with Tedd Ginn as your #1. Easy call

I'm afraid you do not understand cap dynamics.
