Yeah, I have to imagine they'd definitely prefer to move him somewhere else than a Division Rival.

 

But their options are very slim. Could be a Bledsoe to Buffalo situation where when it comes to the most return, they don't have much of a choice. The Giants and Patriots are the only real places still needing a Starter off the top of my head and they both pick in the Top 6.

Everyone knows they need to offload him for Caleb, so I don't think they're getting the return they're asking for.  Might be a case of beggars can't be choosers.

Denver needs a starting QB.

Beane has no money, either in daylight or dark. 

If there really has no money it makes no sense to have prioritized the signings they have made or leaving almost $10m on the table with Josh.

Some have suggested Pegs could have put a cap on him this year

I doubt it but think Beane knows this a critical year and can't make big cap mistakes so he's going bargain shopping. 

If they take a step back McD will throw beane under the bus.

I think he was always going bargain shopping ….but would have thought Josh’s $10 mil might have helped in that department … there are a hell of a lot of depth  still to fill … 

 

Maybe all 11 draft picks are making the 53 this year …

"the nfl salary cap isn't real" - Dan Fates

 

One of my favorite lines from the Combine was him saying that they were talking to Beane off the record and that Beane told him "anyone who thinks the cap isn't real is an idiot" in a "more colorful manner" and that Fetes had to own up to that being his favorite thing to say.

I could see 7 or 8.

Everything we did went into getting out from under 42+m over the cap, re-signing Daquan Jones as our starting 1T, re-signing Taylor Rapp as one of our starting Safeties, re-signing AJ Epenesa as our DE3/DE2, re-signing Cam Lewis as S3, signing Mitch Trubisky as QB2, signing Nicholas Morrow as LB3, and Matt Haack at Punter.

 

We're at where we need to be to be cap compliant for the league start tomorrow and be able to file the moves we've made. That's it.

 

Until we hear that they've done a Taron Johnson extension, an Ed Oliver, Matt Milano, and/or a Stefon Diggs re-structure - we effectively have nothing. Not having any of that done combined with only getting 16.5 from Josh and only getting 2.5 from Douglas on a re-structure instead of an extension really hurt.
