If they go the extension route, the first 2 yrs will be guaranteed. So 1 yr @ 14 million with an ext starting after next season above that number. Or possibly 25 guaranteed over the next 2 seasons on a 5 yr deal. Don t know which route ends up getting taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucsfan333 Posted March 4, 2019 Author Share Posted March 4, 2019 The tag takes up pretty much all our cap space. DJax will be a Buc until about the fourth. Gholston, E Smith, and Anger too. Would leave is with ~$20M in cap space. I really hope we can move Brate. Would free up $7M more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgarrett12486 Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Really hope we hold off on extending him right away. He seems like he's gonna mail it in when he gets a new deal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trade Brate and I guess expect the bucs to make low risk FA pick ups. Ramon Foster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lil' Shorty Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 If we sign a bottom 5 LT to an extension with $12-$14M per year he better be priority #1 on BAs accountability sheet every day to start team meetings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottom five is harsh. He's middling at worst. And maybe at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence the reference to BAs accountability sheet.

He's been a consistent middle tier tackle. Not a top ten, not a bottom 10. Somewhere in between in his 4 years... He's also been very durable, which only helps him... I don't have a problem tagging him, even if it's above his value. I just would like to see us make him prove he can take that next step before we extend him...

There are 64 starting Tackles in the NFL. That’s not average among starters. At the end of the day none of this matters cuz he’s staying in Tampa. My only point is he’ll be paid top 10, maybe top 5 money to be the 46th best Tackle. Wonder where he’d be if Guards and Centers were in that ranking too.
