What is a “3 year split?”

A split salary protects the team against injury. So if a player gets hurt under a split contract they get paid less. You’ll *never* see a good player have one but usually late round/UDFA who have injury concerns have them written into the contract.

Hicks is a vet piece that’s elite against the run. If we’re sitting on 25 million, we should be open to spending to improve weaknesses. Like run defense.

Is he going to get us to the super bowl this year?  If not why would we sign more of a luxury player to a 1 year deal when we can just roll the cap over to next season instead.

Baffles me how we’re in that situation..

It's all this void year garbage we keep adding.  We had the chance to take our lumps with those @(*&$ contracts the last two years and kept kicking the can down the road.  Now it's catching up.

I think Ionidas is the only player with void money next year (around 4 m).

Meanwhile we'll probably roll over 15m. 

We can cut Anderson next year and clear 12m.

Burns will be extended so his 16m. hit will probably end up being 4-5m.

DJ's base salary of 20m can be converted to bonus and save around 15m.

Cutting Elflein next year saves just under 5m.

We don't know how high the cap will go up next year.

And that's all without touching Shaq, CMC, or Moton.

We'll be ok.

I mean it doesn’t sound like he would be succesful looking at those numbers, sounds like a run defender then again I remember us signing a few udfa DEs over the years that made the team and got playing time and were specifically run stopping DEs like Wes Horton and Bryan Cox. Both put up similar numbers in college.

can you write an autobiography?  I want to learn more about you..

 

 

I'm thinking he is a big time CEO type that has much responsibility so he spends his down time recharging and trolling us for some chill fun. I appreciate all his strangely odd responses. My favorites are when someone posts something really jacked up that happens and he responds with a "I'm completely fine with this". I know he isn't but he is seeing who he can get a rose out of and it's great. His humor often seems very serious in nature so it makes it that muchore goofy and entertaining. He is an all around very important part of the huddle. This site needs him.

      We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that

      Day 2 Targets/Faves

      By woahfraze · Posted

      There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
