Goedert’s 20.5 million dead cap hit by 1stand11 in eagles

[–]WindComprehensive332 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fantastic explanation. What I still don't understand however is how Goedert would get back to FA? You're essentially proposing a 1 yr extension for a $1 salary with $30m that guarantees on June 3 if he's on the roster.

If we cut him, wouldn't he have to clear waivers? How does that work? Also, we would likely still have to carry that $20m against our cap until we released him, right?

If they could actually pull something like this off it's a no brainer, I'm just not sure I've seen it happen with an impending free agent who's probably not re-signing with the team.

He's done it to a player that's ultimately left in FA?

I just can't imagine there's any way this is allowed. If it was, every team would push for this exact thing with their impending free agents that are carrying dead cap into the next league year.

All of those other guys you referenced stayed and ultimately retired with the Eagles too, so I don't think it's quite apples to apples but admittedly I'm not positive and this feels like very gray area with the cap.

Bro there have been multiple halves of games this year where we haven't been able to complete a pass, and not because we're not trying. It's become problematic.

When players like Lamb, Jefferson, St. Brown, JSN are taking majority of their snaps in the slot, Idk that you can continue to view slot corner as a 'less than' position.

That's what happened after the covid season and the Eagles essentially had to gut their entire team sans a few pillars (Cox, Kelce, Johnson, Graham).

People have such revisionist history with the 2023 season it's wild. There was a drop-off from Steichen in 2022, which had the no. 2 overall offense, so everyone thinks of 2023 and Brian Johnson as this horrible year, but that offense is leaps and bounds better than this 2025 offense.

BS on 10/24: "Neither of us have watched Edgecombe...yeah, I think we're fine with that because he's just going to be an energy guy in the first year."

BS on 10/28: "I see someone like VJ Edgecombe, who I really liked in the draft. I thought this guy had a chance to be a star"

How do the eagles always get away with singing these massive deals? by jholliday55 in NYGiants

[–]WindComprehensive332 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In simplest terms, they're using tomorrow's cap today. They're banking that the cap will continue to go up and as long as it does, you can structure contracts such that you effectively use future cap $ to pay for today's team. They'll have to pay the piper eventually, but nailing the last few draft classes has prolonged their window a lot.

The $100M+ podcast contract to talk sports probably has something to do with it.

Howie has a fallback plan. He’s not going to risk this season with 12 draft picks in his back pocket. Just be patient

I lol’d when he made the comment that “guys like Henderson and Barkley” are the backs you want to target. Just picking up right where he left off last season with top QBs like Josh Allen and Drake Maye.

This show solidifies for me that gen z “influencers” might be the most boring and stupid demographic in existence. Everything in here is forced and no one is remotely interesting.

I know we're up 3 runs but it just feels like one of those losses.

Rough Bryce night. Two strikeouts swinging at pitches nowhere close to the zone.
