Dodson clear #1 LBer in Seattle with Wagner and Brooks gone.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Im conflicted on Devin White, really fallen off the past couple of seasons. Great player when at his best though. 1 year deal keeps him hungry though so might work out well.

 

[J Shuttlesworth]

Must be drafting a WR early.

 

[Jatz]

I like that for the Bears.

Higher price then i was expecting for him. It saves the Chargers $23m.

Thats alot of money the Bears are going to pay for a 1 year rental.

I dont get it. for a team like the bears i would keep the 4th round and draft a few WR's cheap and spend the $20m on FA's

One of these things is not like the others. The Saints remind me of those people who get a new credit card and then use a cash advance to pay off their old credit card.

$60m over with only 40 players signed is so on brand.

I love how consistent you are with your Bears hate.

Got to admire the Saints determination to stay mid.

 

[Inspecta Gadget]

Saints have been kicking that can for 10 years now. They're not anywhere close to a championship either. Love to see it

This one has nothing to do with the bears. i would of said the same about the Panthers or anyone else who is a team that isnt good.

I dont think bad teams trading for high priced rentals is smart. Give me the cost efficient rookie for 4 years at 1/5th the cost.
and spend the money on a mid 20s player rather then a 30 year old WR.

 

[Jatz]

Yeah I don't get it anymore. The Saints are not competing, would they not be better bottoming out and clearing the cap space?

What's the point of continuing to kick the can down the road when you aren't competing anyway.

FWIW I agree, I think they should have spent their money and an EDR and taken a WR at #9 instead, however, as drd told me on sleeper, this could make sense if they believe Nabers or Odunze dont last til pick #9. In a prime trade back spot now with QB hungry teams a few spots behind them.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Allen is still a very nice piece for a rookie QB if he can stay on the field. Im warming to it. Would assume he plays in the slot and the Bears take an outside WR in the draft still, just maybe not in the first round like some thought. OL or EDR you'd assume if they stay at pick #9 now, or they trade back.

They have no choice, because they still need to get a full roster and cant really trade the contracts because of the restructures will produce almost no savings [if they could even find a buyer for the contract]

and a few of the contracts they have decided to extend with backloaded money.
the Carr contract just made it harder. they should of tried to reset the cap starting last season and then be clear again by 25 or 26

It only makes sense if Allen extends before the season. otherwise it looks like a high price rental for a team not close to a Lombardi.

he is 32 next month, and i doubt he will extend to play in Chicago after spending all his time in SD/LA. He has enough money to not need to play in the cold for a bad team after living in Cali the last 15 years.

So realistically, how far away are they now from operating like every other team in the league? '27/'28?

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

The Saints could cut players and fill a roster im sure, follow what Nick Caserio did with the Texans, a bunch of undrafted rookies and bargain bin free agents. Just too stubborn to clean house in what is/was (til the Falcons got Cousins) a winnable NFC South.

[Shade]

What are the chargers doing?

Quinten "dogshit" Johnson is now WR1.

****ing lol.

That franchise has no idea

Taysom Hill $15m cap hit. if they cut him it costs them $16m [but can be a $5m hit post june 1]

somewhere around 28/29
Kamara contract they need to cut next year, Lattimore in 25/26, Carr in 26.

27 they will still have some issues from contracts not yet restructured that they will need to do to get under next year. So many bad contracts on the roster. with ones like Kamara you wouldnt even find a trade partner for.

Right now the Kamara contract is $18.7 [if they cut him they only save $1.5m] next year its a $30m cap hit but cutting can save $20m so no team is trading for that hit.

They will get a very good WR at pick #5
