Whole time I was reading it, I knew he wasn't going to include us. Low and behold, he didn't. Obviously no big deal, but just something that annoyed me a little bit I felt like venting about.

Even $45M evaporates pretty fast depending on which positions you need to fill in FA. Byron Jones and Logan Ryan at CB have a market value of $14M, a free safety will cost $6M or so, if they wish to sign a WR1 like Anderson, Watkins, or Corey Davis that will be $10-12M, then you've got to re-sign the guys you want to bring back, and the draft class will cost somewhere around $6-8M to sign.

We should try but should be fine. Know we put money into next year, but some of those guys will get extensions to smooth it out and the new CBA bump.

Howie was hedging his bets on a potential work stoppage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They already freed up 8-10 by declining Nigel’s option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncapped year would be an easy dump of that stuff though yeah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
