imagine thinking that you can justify overspending on the backup RB position by pointing out that you can't trust your first round pick RB to handle a full workload. bad value on bad value.

but yes, they should complement well. good thing it's short term i guess.

Incentives don't count against the cap IMO.

depends on the incentive. if they are categorized as "likely to be earned" or not. and that depends on whether the player has hit those milestones in the previous year, iirc

if they aren't "likely to be earned" but are met, then they count against the cap the following year

Seems like the perfect way to reinvest your OL savings.....

Unless Jacobs has a chronic issue, man.   I'm starting to think Gruden needs to be tested for CTE.

This won't be much on the cap if we cut our backup RB. A net of ~ 3 million if we move on from Richard. That being said, I agree that we need to continue to invest into the defense. I'm not sure where things are on that front.
