[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 1028571, member: 10086"] Just going to mention I’ve seen some articles pointing to how bad our Cap situation is, but it’s surface level stuff Our top 51 look like this by year in comparison to the league. Mostly what really matters is “comparison to peers” imo. 2024: 24th ($251M) 2025: 20th ($103M) 2026: 24th ($142M) 2027: 18th ($42M) The second point is that we have just 9 players over $3Mil yearly on our salary cap. The #1 is Bakhtiari and he’s gone. That puts us immediately at 17-18th this season($230Mil) and we haven’t even discussed potential restructured for less $$, such as A Jones. All teams have that though, so I’m trying to compare apples and leave those small ones alone. The point is, all teams can NOT save $21Mil instantly and never lose an ounce of production (Bak). I noticed these experts conveniently missed that in almost hopes of bringing unfounded fear into the equation. The third point is that time value diminishes the relative impact of Cap from a % standpoint. By 2026 our current “24th most cap leaguewide” will then be just a fraction of the total Cap allowance. So yes, co parable it’s still 24th but the gross $margin$ is waning by year. The 2026 ($141M) and the committed $$ against what may be $300Mil Cap ceiling is not nearly as significant as the $251M on $255mil commitment today. Let’s just say it holds less weight Now the issue of extending Jordan is a valid point they make. However we’re not the only ones making QB decisions between 2025-2027 AND I’d rather have the Cap problem of signing what might be a Top 10 QB to a long extension. I’ll take that problem 1 on 1 any day and twice Sunday. Nothing great happens to saving team cap (except on rare exception) without possession great level QB play. There will absolutely be a handful of teams in the NFC with better cap because of a QB rookie deal.
