If you think we don't have any money to spend, consider the following:

The Carolina Panthers have $16.9M to spend this offseason according to this article (pretty sure this incorporates Reid's payraise)

The Saints, Bucs and Falcons have a total of $21.5M to spend, combined. Somehow, the worst team in the division (the Bucs) only have $3.6M.

We may not be rolling in the dough. But some good pickups to fill some holes will set us up nicely to take BPA in the draft.

I appreciate that! The glass is  half full! We will most certainly make a big little splash or two that will be well thought out and bring more than a ripple's worth of value. I guarantee it!

Bucs and Falcons yeah, id say they are in worse situation.  Especially the Falcons with the uncertainty what Julio may do again this offseason.

 

Saints always little to Negative cap and they still pull some crazy voodoo magic and lock people uo while resigning people.  I fugging hate the Aints, but their dam GM knows what the fug he's doing

  Yep. He can actually do 5th grade math unlike our Mensa candidates.

Don't know Lomis is that great. He just keep kicking the cap can down the road going all in whole Brees is still there.  Cap isn't hard to manipulate. You just have to decide if you are building long term or trying for one big run before Brees, Payton and Loomis all ride away in the sunset. Loomis is 63 having been born in 1956.

Falcons have been talking to Julio just like they were last off-season..he never missed any of training camp last year and I expect the same this year.  All of it was over blown by the media.

    • I am optimistic that we might be on the verge of fielding a sustainable offense finally. The Bryce stats listed above are definitely encouraging. I don’t want to overly inflate this and disregard the previous 1 and a half seasons of production from Bryce and “cherry pick” stats but do hope the benching turns into an inflection point in his trajectory.      Lots of excitement heading into this season. 
    • Summary The 2024 Carolina defense posted a 44.9 grade last year, which was the worst in the NFL since 2020. They also had the worst receiving grade in the NFL despite a QB that emerged in the second half of last year. TMac is most likely WR1 in this class and is now WR1 in Carolina He's going to be incredibly helpful on go balls, dig routes, and in the redzone. Highlights show just that: First highlight is Arizona vs. Utah. 4 verts vs. cover-0, TMac lined up alone on a go ball vs. press = we're launching it Second highlight shows his potential as the X. Runs a backside in-cut and the Tampa-2 MLB sells out on the corner route, leaving his back to TMac. Tough over the middle, explosive after the play. Sees TMac doing a lot of what Mike Evans was asked to do in Tampa. Third highlight shows how effective TMac is in the redzone and it's his one-handed catch vs. Travis Hunter. Brings "indefensible plays." Has size advantage that can beat guys, can jump, and has ridiculous hands. Will help Bryce in year 3 as it will allow him to continue playing "fearless" like he did after coming back from benching. Highlights show where TMac fits and re-emphasizes how he's going to make things easier on go balls, dig routes, and in the redzone: Fourth highlight shows Bryce vs. ATL when he hit AT vs. AJ Terrell down the sideline. Bryce has to hold the single deep safety during his drop to give Thielen a chance (who is only 4yds off of the LOS when Bryce is throwing it). Registers the big-time throw attacking vertically. Fifth highlight is vs. KC on a blitz where Bolton is coming downhill while Karlaftis is dropping back over the middle. Has an in-route that has outside leverage with Chris Jones applying immediate pressure. Layered it over Karlaftis' head for the completion. Sixth highlight is the fade route TD to David Moore vs. Zona. in the redzone. David Moore was the X on this play. Thought this was interesting, especially considering recent conversations about Bryce's intermediate game needing to be better:
    • Nah its Rod Brindamour 0-11 in the Eastern Conference Finals under him.....   Three trips in seven years Zero WINS in the third round.
