This guy gets it. They get a SOLID backup (never should have been a starter) for $3M and a 6th. That's a win for them. It's less than 1/2 what he got from NO, and he saved their ass when Brees went down 2 years ago.

He had to go somewhere though, glad he's not a panther anymore.

We really aren’t. $10M of the $17M in dead cap was from the signing bonus. The signing bonus was $15M paid in 2020 when he signed and was spread to hit the cap $5M each year. No way to get rid of that $10M.

We save $8M in non-guaranteed salary in 2021, $3M of the $10M guaranteed salary in 2021 and save all $21M of non-guaranteed salary in 2022.

It was an awful signing when we should have ridden Grier to a great pick to get our future QB without trading away draft capital. Teddy also cost us Bradberry’s 3rd round comp we could have used for more OL depth on Friday and he also cost us $31M of cap for 4-11. Plus had we decided not to go for it with him, cutting Short and trading Turner for picks only might have occurred. So yes, it was a poo ass signing. 

Thanks for the clarification. I agree with you completely about the signing. We never should have let Bradberry walk either. So much stupidity.

    • Rico walking is no big deal. I'll take a healthy 2024 Hubbard over Rico any time and losing Mays is, again, no a big deal.  Young is signed for what, $35M for the next two years? Say he wants $50M but the FO doesn't. If they put the franchise tag on him, that would be around $55? So basically they are getting Young for the next 3 years for an average of $30M per year. Putting the franchise tag on him wouldn't be my first choice but it gives them an option that wouldn't be locking him into a long term, $50M contract. I'm not suggestion they do that. Just that the option will be there should they get to that point. Hunt is on a 5 year deal which is done in 28 so he either restructures or is gone anyway. Moton will be 35 by then and will either be gone or have diminished playing time. Neither of those players has anything to do with getting Young a contract. The O line is way overpaid anyway. Hopefully by the time they are gone, Freeling and Hecht will be developed and Ickey will be healthy. Young was benched his second year and only got his job back because Dalton was injured. Not sure how you can call that entitled. And I would NOT say putting a rookie QB on a team with no receivers, tight ends or O lineman and then being put with a coach who never wanted you and is fired mid season, is a definition of luck. As far as competition, no team is going to bring in competition for a QB picked first overall - especially given the capital that was given up to get him.  
    • With apologies to Lady Cowboy fan, any day we can screw over the Cowboys is a GOOD day…
