Lol, we are on the hook for this monster contract for a RT and nowhere near contention.  This is what you do for a plug and play elite RT on a SB contending team.  We are dog poo and paying a RT a king's ransom. 

And guess what? It doesn't matter because they suck so bad its not hurting anything 🤣🤣🤣

He's a top 6 RT making top 6 RT money. 🤷‍♂️

Bro you sweating so much over spending David Teppers money RN get a grip.

You apparently don't realize unused cap space rolls over to the next season.  So yeah, this year's cap numbers affects next year's cap space.  I could care less how much cash Moton got from Tepper, I care about how much cap he's taking up.

Teams have to spend 90% of the cap over a 4-5 year period and a set amount each year as well.

That doesn't mean you have to nearly max out though.   It was a desperate signing to keep Bryce's OL fully intact in an attempt to save Bryce's job for 2026 and the coaching staff as well.  That's why we went WR in round 1...again and drafted a RB as well as a TE fully knowing our defense needed all the help they could get.

They have 13.5m in cap space left while spending 269m because of roll over from 2024. (2025 cap ceiling is 275m) 

They have around 22-24m in 2026 counting Motons contract and can save 17m cutting Young, Corbett and Wonnum. "This is with a cap ceiling of 295m"

This is not counting Moton's contract which will drop us below $40M and into the low 20's for all team cap space.  This didn't have to happen, but the brass went all-in on Bryce.  We could have let him walk, went with one of our current guys or signed a RT much cheaper.  In an ironic kind of way it's going to cement Bryce's downfall if he can't turn it around.  If he's not getting pressured/being sacked and he still stinks, we know Bryce has got to go.

29+13.5 in roll over is 42.5m. 

They already have 266m of 295 spent for 2026 with 38 players on the roster. Hence the 29m in cap space I listed above, count the roll over and you get 42.5m in space. 

Minus Moton at 18-20m and you get 22-24m in cap space. 

They are going to move on from Bryce, Corbett and Wonnum. 

That gives them 39m and 35 roster spots taken of 51. 

Add 8 rookies at 12m salary. 

You've got 43 roster spots filled and 27m in cap space. 

 

On top of all that, Moton will help solidify the line for a new rookie QB next season.

      I agree here.  Falcons won't lay down. Tampa SHOULD win. However, it is a short week and both teams need this game to be played different ways. Tampa needs to have time to scheme and keep this game fast paced, Atlanta needs this to be a physical heavy run slobberknocker which is more likely to happen with just 3 days. Keep in mind, Raheem should probably be fired tomorrow but won't be because it's a short week, he can save some grace and coach for his job Thursday. I wouldn't be surprised to see him be super aggressive on calls all night.  I worry about the Saints as well. I really hope our week of rest to get healthy and realign focus outweighs the risk of us getting lazy again. Hopefully, the last time we played them was a wake up call and they come in motivated and pissed off to prove a point. However, the Saints are having fun shitting on everyone and I would not be surprised if it was a repeat. Somehow I feel us and the Bucs will both find a way to lose.

      Down year for QBs

      By mav1234 · Posted

      1) This article is from the middle of the 2024 season. There was no season that ended with 202.8 YPG. By the end of the season, passing numbers had bounced up to 217. We shared those numbers here a few times. The fact that from Oct to end of season numbers went up by ~14 yards suggests we'll see a bounce up this year too.   2) The article you're referencing is from 2016 onwards... My numbers were not, just last few years. That's the time period we're talking about. 3) There is DEFINITELY a long term trend down. My comment was regarding it is unlikely I see teams changing strategies with regards to QBs because the numbers have been pretty consistent for the last 4 years.
