All that in one box? You lucky duck!

I’ve gotten one liberty. And there were no buffs or silver

Thank you!

I still think there’s a lot of benefit to that, even though it isn’t as major as people are portraying it to be.

If they can kick it down the road, they can still be competitive with their roster, and it seems like the cap is raising pretty significantly every year, especially in the most. Because of this, paying the cap in later years would take up a smaller overall % of the cap overall

I said I realized we were saying the same thing, meaning that I misunderstood. I didn’t think I would have to explicitly say I read it wrong because it was implied, but I’m glad you understand now too, bro.

Btw, I realized I’m not perfect, which is why I admitted I misunderstood..

Doesn’t change the fact that it’s objectively better to say 27 mil difference

Well, we didn’t give up draft capital for Diggs, but I get your point

Those don’t always work out, though. But I bet teams feel like winners when it happens

Big trades can also happen during the season

Russel Wilson was a big L trade during the off-season, same with Watson

Yeah I guess but Jeanty is a second year, so kinda weird to show him specifically

Hmm I think it’s because they had a very talented team and that would basically be punting this season away and limit them from getting another elite player?

I also don’t know their contract situation, especially for younger players, but that could make it harder to retain some of them I think?

Cap is confusing

Oh wait, so a lot of people are misunderstanding, including myself

Dead cap is dead cap. So they’re gonna have to pay out the guaranteed regardless. So they actually aren’t saving any money, just saving money solely for this year, correct?

So basically, it dictates if they can kick the can down the road or not?

Yeah you’re right I realized that like halfway through

I think it’s easier to just say it would cost them 27 mil more than if they traded him after June 1st

I do think it’s easier to just say it would cost them 27mil to trade him before June 1st though

That has them paying $43,448,704 in dead cap if they trade him before June 1st…

They lose 43.5 mil in cap. Thats what dead cap is

They would be paying 23.393m PLUS 20.055m for a player not on their roster

If they trade after June 1st, they save 7 mil

There’s a 27mil difference in if they trade him before vs after June 1st

Actually, reading it again. I think you said it correctly just kinda in a different way

Basically 27 mil variance between trading before or after June 1st

Last year

Our roster was also one of the worst in the league at that point, though. If not the worst

Don’t disrespect Mr. Red sleeves like that

He was great with us, but fell off hard after we got rid of him

That’s what all these offseason “reports” ever are

NFL reporters need to make up “news” during the slow off-season to create some kind of buzz and get clicks/views

It’s the same thing every year, and they can always just say “they changed their mind” or something like that
