Not really. It balances out Cousins’ cap hit between 2023 and 2024. Realistically, Jefferson’s largest cap hits aren’t really going to be seen until 2025 or even 2026.

Well JJ's cap is likely going to go up even this year, assuming they sign an extension, so they will start to spread the money starting 2023-2027 years, so there will be an impact of an extra ~$10M in some of those years, should they decide to push more Cousins related money into 2024 and 2025 Edited March 6, 2023 by CriminalMind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An extension adds money and years to end of a contract. A re-negotiated or new deal would impact this year's salary cap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrplChilPill Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Given what Carr just got and what Jones is rumored to be getting, Kirk will want 40 million per year......or more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say ‘no’ to 40 mil/year. If this is the case, just ride out the last year of his contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is why the Vikings this draft or next year need to draft a QB. Paying 39+ mil for a aging non Tom Brady QB has disaster written all over it. Ryan, Rodgers, Manning's, Big Ben, Rivers have shown that eventually a QB will hit the wall. Kirk discussion is no longer is he good enough to win a SB or not in my eyes. Kirk will be here regardless and be the guy 2023. Kirk has one to two year window before age/cap turns Vikings into bottom tier team looking for a QB anyway.

dc_vikingfan Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 The fear of having a bad QB is too much for some fans. Teams will have to overpay QB but there's a line to everything. Look at those teams with the highest contracts and look at how much talent they had to give up on to fit these contracts. Then look up the QB's who can overcome having less resources and are still true title contenders. 6 QBs from this list didn't make the Playoffs. 4 QBs from the list won a SB and 2 of them won it a decade ago. The idea to overpay since these teams did is odd. Especially considering if the Vikings sign any these QB's for their contracts excluding Mahomes and Allen you would be upset. I'm fine if want Kirk back at these prices because you feel he's worth it and can win. However, just saying give Kirk the contract because that's the going rate doesn't make sense to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
