Did you know Matt Kalil will still be counting against our cap NEXT season?

Even though he last played a game for us in December 2017, we won't be fully free from him until March 2021. His dead money will account for almost 5% of our cap *next* season.

Other than Sean Gilbert, probably our worst contract decision ever.

   it’s posted damn near daily. At this point, who doesn’t know. It’s been discussed since the day he signed that ridiculous thing.

I don't think this was our worst contract ever, I'm not saying it's not, but I think some others were worse.

 

  It’s the worst I’ve ever seen. At least other players that got FA Bust contracts usually did something to deserve it. Kalil was a bottom 5 LT, if he was even healthy enough to play. What convinced anyone that he would suddenly get better?

You and I have gone around about this contract, but didn't it really come out to 2 years for 25M at the end of the day?

I mean, it's bad....real bad as the guy couldn't play football, but when I think of the worst contracts, I think of Anderson, Beason, DWill, etc...

Beason and DWill were good players, but those deals were terribly constructed, IIRC?

 Beacon is a very comparable deal. But even he can blame injury and earned it that amount with high level Of play. Kalil quit after one year. One! And forced us to put an injured DW out there.
 

  And Anderson and Williams also played well before their deals that were much cheaper. And still played years after. 
 

  25M for one year of awful LT play. Find me anything that matches that.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Icege · Posted

      WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.

      Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.

      In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
