Unless Chicago or the Raiders offer something that can't be turned round I doubt anyone will. The dead cap hit is massive. I think it will be a next year deal if he leaves.

He's fantastic and honestly I'd be more than happy with Dak if something isn't sorted there. But for me if the front office thinks soneone like Mac Jones is a franchise I would be very aggressive moving up if they are there in the 15/20 range. The scope a rookie QB deal gives you for future cap years is unreal.

If not I'd be looking at a one year deal for a QB now and looking again next year as it looks like either Dak or Wilson could hit the market. See how wants what out of the likes of Winston, Fitzmagic, Trubisky or even a trade for Minshew. Someone that either has huge upside or a steady hand. Worst thing would be to give a player a deal that might tie money next year if a top QB hits the market.

Not to be a doom merchant but my fear this year is the Defense taking a massive step back if Brown, Rankins and T Rex go from the front 4, that alot of depth/rotation and snaps lost, add that to Williams and it could be ugly.

"Two receivers to the left, Garcon to the right. Manning in the shotgun, puts Collie in motion. Looks in his direction...it's picked off! It's picked off! It's Tracy Porter again! He's runnin' free! He's gonna go all the way!

So this is where OTC currently has us which I expect there's about a day or two delay as they review the contract numbers publicly reported by the league office...

Note: Total Team Cap Space in red, upper right, just above the chart of players, contracts...

Kamara and Thomas should be the next candidates to have contracts re-worked...

Loomis will be reaching out to Lattimore and Ramczyk to have their rookie contracts extended into lucrative veteran contracts; if I'm their agents, I wait till the cap goes up next year...

Kwon and Emmanuel Sanders on the trade block... which means they’re likely getting cut.

Agreed bro.

Especially considering he's a underwhelming player that has been injured a lot as of late.

It wouldn't surprise me to see Latavius Murray cut as well.

Wonder if SP saw what I saw at that fateful practice at Tulane stadium. I've been dogging him since, not that he doesn't deserve it. Popeyes Sammiches are overrated.
