oldmanfan Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 I'd like to see a G or edge guy still brought in. But with remaining dollars I'd like to see some extensions, in particular for Hyde and Poyer. They make an excellent tandem and extending them now would be a move that would help keep our D solid. I'd even consider doing Tradaveous or Milano now. Certainly nextyear though on them given they'll have around 100 million in space Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would still consider it though. Those two make a great tandem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the real total leftover is less. It also doesn't account for the approximately $9M needed to sign our draft picks (as currently projected by Spotrac), and whatever other money we'd want to carry over into next year for signing guys mid-season as guys get hurt. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watkins90 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 I wouldn't extend White until his contract is up. I wouldn't extend Milano until his rookie contract is up. No sense in paying more for a player you don't have too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct - Just trying to keep a running total going. He is adding them little by little Edited March 12, 2019 by Reed83HOF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't extend Milano until his rookie contract is up. No sense in paying more for a player you don't have too. There's a couple reasons you'd sign White early. However , it's a year early, so I wouldn't consider it until next year. One is, reward a player that has out performed his rookie contract and protect against him playing careful in his final year. Second is, while you'd have to calculate the difference in re-newing his contract vs his rookie contract pay a year early, you'd likely pay less per year vs waiting. 4 minutes ago, oldmanfan said: I just think he's the linchpin.

seven&nine Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Rookie contracts cannot be extended until after their third year. So White and Milano can't even begin negotiations until next off-season. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 We are actually in a position where extensions do not need to be paid out......but I fully expect them to roll a large portion of this cap over..... This was the whole point of the dead cap crap sandwich was to get our cap under control and KEEP it under control. 10 draft picks upcoming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many players in the NFL that are not superstars can you name that have been signed to extensions with 2-3 years remaining on their contract. It really doesn't happen and we would be giving money and cap space away for no reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the bank we have next year, 2020 could be fun if these guys are smart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
