Do you want to provide your formula for how it should work?

never say never......I cannot see that happening any time in the near future but it could eventually depending on how the organization handles things. He easily deserves a bigger deal at this point but he knew that would be the case. I dont think there is any panic anywhere but it will get redone IMO...I think next offseason.

He will get a reworked deal if he pushes for it and he has the leverage to do it, you don't want Josh unhappy. The one they should have said no to was the last extension for Diggs because Hill got a big deal.

I would say you trade back if he is the only clear first round grade left. Beane has a history of getting to the draft position where there is a guy at more of a need position that meets the value.

The extra one is common

16,000,000,000 cents

Not sure where they are cap wise but I don’t want to restructure Diggs. I think they can gain some more space by extending Johnson and. Maybe a couple other minor moves. I don’t expect much more but as FA goes I expect low end wr safety dt de and ol signings. Kinda like Rapp and puna last year type deals.

Yes

Good contract for a. Rb. Where is the Beamer can’t draft third rounders guy.

The Dolphins are gonna get some comp picks

They needed someone to push that tush

I like Mack.....the Chargers are nuts with those two contracts

I give them credit, the easy thing would be to bend over and give him the bag. He is a good QB, but they recognized what he is not and were willing to move on.

My guess was 3 years 60M, underestimated a little, I will try to do better.

Agree with the premise here, this is why we should not give big dollars to good players like Knox and Gabe Davis.

Does Kromer agree?

Its the nature of the contractual situation, 5M for Pitt benefits the Broncos cap by 5M, why would the Steelers or RUss want to do that.

I agree, this is a real possibility.

It might end up being a 13th rounder...........dont count your chickens buddy

The team is not cap compliant yet, like 12M over and has a bunch of holes to fill on the DL and safety and WR and backup OL. They need money for the draft class, practice squad and replacement guys due to injuries in season. I don’t see them skipping the JA restructure but they can choose to do a full restructure or partial. Also the bigger thing for them to avoid is restructuring. Diggs. They need to give themselves a way out IMO if needed (not advocating for getting out). So just not doing that is a win for this off-season IMO. Bottom line is beane did some good work but a lot of work still to go. We saw conservative Beane last week. This week is likely to be drunken sailer Beane.

Mods should consider revising the title of this thread to something like "Chris Jones signs with KC 5yr, $158.75M, $95M guaranteed". People seem to be confusing the guaranteed with the total value. His AAV is 31.75M

They can easily do both...get younger and sign DQ. They need numbers, 4-5 at that position, right now they have 1. I think signing DQ to a modest deal (6M per year is the projection if that is true) makes sense as does drafting one plus another in FA or the draft.

Are QBs allowed to sign in the nfc?

I live in NE so yes I did. He averaged 3.5 YPC

First, I listen to Marino's podcast and I enjoy it because he is pragmatic and brings reasonable arguments, he is not always right but his thought process is good. What Marino said is what would need to happen. Knox is a restructure, not an extension. Not sure what you mean by same outcome without extending, guessing you mean restructure but that is what he is proposing for Knox already. Dawkins is an extension and that is needed to lower his cap number, he is in the last year of his deal.. He already has void money next year so they could add to that but they could extend him to keep him on the team after this year. I hate the Zeke signing, he is done, I would rather keep the 6th or 7th round pick.
