The front office has budget for the future.  Fitterer said we are financially sound for the next few years.  They have a plan in mind, most likely broken down by position group.

During his Mac Attack interview this morning, Fitterer said the team had "budgeted" for Donte Jackson.

It really depends on how Gilmore performs.  

I loved the trade but he's 31, gonna be 32 next season.  I can't see us giving him more than $10m per.

 

For Gilmore I could see something like 3 years, 45 mil, with 28 guaranteed or something along those lines.  Give a big chunk of it in a signing bonus. Donte maybe a little longer contract?  Hes not #1 material right now, so maybe along the same lines as Gilmore?  Reddick, IDK about him...hes an enigma.  Need to see how he does the rest of the season.  If he has another 12-13 sack year we might not be able to afford him.  Those types of dudes get 100 million dollar contracts on the open market.

I wonder if that was before or after we got Gilmore?  They keep saying it doesnt change anything so I guess we will see.  Also, we are projected right now to have like 100 million in cap space in 2023 so its gonna be time to throw a lot of cash around very soon.

There are some quality LTs coming up for FA. Now whether their teams let them go. Or their price is outlandish. Maybe this FO is willing to give it a go. I know they like youth. But a quality LT would improve this team tremendously.

Only top tier LT that I can’t think that will be a free agent is Armstead mainly because the Saints have zero cap space and have a giant ? at quarterback. Winston is a FA as well if I remember correctly.

Orlando Brown is the only other guy I can think of but I doubt the Chiefs traded what they did for him as a one year rental.

Who else is a plug and play starter that will be a free agent?

Without looking it up. I was thinking Decker, and Armstead. So I wasn't expect too much talent out there to begin with.

Then who was I thinking of?

Idk but that’s why I was saying if we want an immediate plug and play stud at LT finally, the only option in FA is Armstead.

We have the cap space to outbid everyone. It’s time to finally stop neglecting the most important position in football outside of QB.

Unless Sam explodes into something great, i don't anticipate him being here when that contract runs out. Hopefully he gets a pro bowl.

So you get rid of a good-not-great QB after multiple failures since Cam, what do you do then if Darnold is just good but not great, and the QB you replace him with is not?

Well, the interview was post-Gilmore, so I'm guessing the sentiment is also.

around 30 per year, but first year maybe around 10.

 

In this past off-season, I said the tag was there for Djack. It gave many here a heart-attack followed by derp derp he is not top 5 derp derp. Funny how silence is now. 

You could tag and trade Djack as well. I do not know if they will be able to keep both Gilmore and Djack regardless of what Finessererereerr states. Need to wait and see how well Horn heals, CJ henderson plays, Gilmore plays, hartsfield too. Its a pure waiting game for the CB/DB/NB group.

We likely need extensions for:

DJ Moore

Stephon Gilmore

Sam Darnold

Brian Burns

Haason Reddick

AJ Bouye (maybe pending on the season)

Marquis Haynes (maybe)

Jermaine Carter (maybe)

That itself is quite the sum of money. I would rather let Jackson walk with our current CB room and invest in OL. Especially with our limited draft picks.

I'm not sure too many folks are willing to go with the "Outbidding" angle. That Kalil fiasco may still be fresh in everyone's mind. 

 

A fair price, for a good to great OT is more where we are at presently.

One is an all pro who has missed 4 out of the 89 games he’s played. The other was an oft injured player who was already teetering into bust territory. Not even remotely similar.

4 years 90 to 95 million is probably be his market value. We could sign him and depending on structure will still have 40+ million in cap space left.

    • Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.  
    • Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO. 
    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
