We eat $21.8 million in 2020 and nothing in future years. I expect we'll see a restructure soon to push some money into future years to open up cap room in 2020.

Yeah that what the numbers look like but there’s usually something reported that’s not totally accurate until a trade like this happens. Just gonna wait a couple days until things are finalized but yeah a Goff or AD restructure are coming.

Maybe BoB’s an evil genius and they are trying to build a speedy offense like the Chiefs, and David Johnson also returns to dominant form. They get a #1 Corner at Pick 40. They have a Top 3 Offense and make the AFC Championship. 
 

Just trying to give Texan fans hope in this dark BoB Era. You never know right?

pick 40 is definitely going to be an edge rusher.

IF Bo'ob had acquired an awesome pass rusher, I could understand... but Cooks at his salary (but you couldn't pay Nuk) in a deep WR draft is asinine 

Edit: NVM  Rams eating a big chunk of that

According to Spotrac,

2020: $8M

2021: $12M

2022: $13M

2023: $14M

Still would rather have Nuk

Yeah we’ve seen that number for a while but there’s always something ending up different in the end. We’ll see soon enough.

In those cases, there was typically offset language. In this case, we traded him. We paid his roster bonus already, and the other money comes from prorated bonuses we paid in the past. I don't see a way around it.

Expect most of those to be gone by 40, including Okwara. Perhaps Terrell Lewis is his thing, but kind of a reach. 40 is not a good spot to need an Edge Rusher.
