Hurney freeing up cap space. Extension coming?

 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.

    • I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.  
    • Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.  
    • The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
