We have not had a true leader on defense in a very long time.

Agree but Stephen isn’t spending any money. He’s more worried about the cap

**ChknFrydMFer** · 02-18-2021, 06:02 AM

I see what ya mean about JJ signing...but I feel it'd be a waste of $$ right now...unless they dumped a few people.

I'm comfortable rolling with DLaw, Aldon Smith, Randy

That said I don't think JJ would sign here anyway...looking like Bills/Browns are the top contenders

**MYOFIBRAH** · 03-08-2021, 04:04 PM

whoa

**TalonBrah** · 03-08-2021, 04:29 PM

Dak Prescott’s salary-cap number for this season will be $22.2 million instead of the $37.7 million that would have come along with the franchise tag - a savings of $15.5 million against this season’s cap.

**BigBallsMcgee** · 03-08-2021, 05:38 PM

big mistake

**cncman** · 03-08-2021, 05:48 PM

That's a lotta guaranteed for a post surgery toy with ceedeez nutz to throw to.

the first 3 years avg 42 mil per year
42x3= 126 million over the first 3 years
126 - 22 mil for this year
104 /2 remaining years = 52 million per year

Maybe it won’t count against the cap exactly that way, but I was doing the avg if we backed out the first year against the cap

**cncman** · 03-08-2021, 07:12 PM

Peyton Manning made 17.5 mil/ year at Denver. Brady made 25? For his Superbowl this year

looks like I was way off, not sure how they came to a 42 mil per yr avg over the first 3 years

I wish I understood the cap more, I just get confused

Same...What I'm seeing is 75mil for year 1

**TalonBrah** · 03-09-2021, 04:38 AM

How does the 66 mil signing bonus not go against the cap?

**Lunatic** · 03-09-2021, 04:57 AM

It does. It's just that it's over the length of his contract, so he gets a $13.2M bonus at the start of every league year.

A good website for NFL cap info is www.overthecap.com

It's witchcraft. I just stick to player eval lol.

How tf they got his cap hit to 22mill this year is beyond my depths.

just means we’re gonna pay more in the next few years
Not sure why they like to backload contracts

Speaking of, historically, you’ve been a huge critic of backloaded large contracts given to qbs of the cowboys

**JWeezy83** · 03-09-2021, 06:08 AM

Correct me if I’m wrong plz. If the contract is back loaded is it easier to restructure? Or is it vice versa . All confusing to me

**niospecv** · 03-09-2021, 06:29 AM

It's done. Let's move forward and hope for the best.

Yeah, they've been doing it since I've been really paying attention to that sort of thing. I think Jerry's thinking is the cap always goes up and he's generally had success kicking the can down the road with Witten et al. It seemed like every year from 09-15 they were always right up against the cap but still found ways to make moves.

It's actually really front loaded, I hate back loaded deals on guys that can't stay healthy or old.

Like when they were kicking the 88/94 contract cans down the road. Not a 27 year old player who's missed two games since 2013 before the ankle.

From what understand the biggest hit of this deal is 2023 when the TV money hits EDIT: biggest hit is in 24 @47

Was just looking it up on OTC.

44m 2023
47m 2024
13.3m 2025

Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, Wilson, Rodgers and maybe even Baker will be paid by 22...pushing this deal way down the list in top end money.

**5x10** · 03-12-2021, 08:32 AM

Jerry is done with covid
Said all home games this year will have no attendance restrictions

Boss making boss moves. $$$$$

**5x10** · 03-16-2021, 09:01 PM

Awuzie and Dalton are gone

**JUGGERNAUT1333** · 03-17-2021, 09:20 AM

I wonder what washed up bums we will sign in a month to fill the many needs our team has...…ultimately to be released in training camp.
