 You don’t need cap space(for this year) to sign extensions. We just restructured Luke on April 18th

 And you don’t restructure players on the decline. Especially KK. 

 If this isn’t preparation for a Trent Williams trade, I don’t see the point.

Dont see them extending Cam until he can prove his shoulder can holder up this season.  Hurney says "he's taking his time here from last time and learning from it".  So you know he is going to be a littler shell shocked at getting that deal done after giving Jake his big deal.  Then watch Jake get injured right after.

 

 

Has to be 

1. Bradberry- who project's to cost around 13 mil a year

2. OL- he just saw Luck call it a career early after taking the hits.  Its caused a panic in the league as you saw Houston just give a boatload to Miami for a Young OT

I dont think Bradberry is worth anywhere close to 13 million a year. he should walk.

Far from an expert on this, just asking.

But if the extension you are signing the player to is for the express purpose of putting some of that money into this year's cap   wouldn't you have to free up $ in this year's cap space?

depending on the signing bonus, yes. but signing bonuses are pro rated, so they're stretched out through the life of the contract. 

which is why we have dead space from the kalil deal.

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
