The article pointed out Nick Wright's viewpoint, he "has called for the league to change rules because he views the strategy as fraud and not creative circumvention of the written rulebook".Someone in that article mentioned that Void monies to help arrange the Roster was a form of “cheating”.
I guess that person never used credit before and They are probably the same ones lobbying to get their student loan paid for with our tax dollars
I disagree with that and I’m not a millionaire. But I do understand that has been propagated by various entities (mostly for selfish objectives) I do have an older brother in that wealthy category and he pays 25X the tax $ I pay (maybe much more idk). He also sacrificed much of his life to get where he’s at and he’s a lot more educated and motivated than I am and has completely different objectives than me. I’m not interested in taking away from him if I wanted his $$ I’d rely on my own efforts, not demonize his monetary success
So, it is only "fitting" that billionaire NFL owners get the same "loopholes" to build their team.
I just gave you a like for pulling it back on to the Roster topic. Nice Save!So, it is only "fitting" that billionaire NFL owners get the same "loopholes" to build their team.
I don't really view the cap structure though as allowing teams to "not pay". It is set up to allow them to adjust how and when to pay. Which I actually think is a good system for the following reasons and I will use the Packers as an example.
A team (Packers 2018-23) that is right on the brink of greatness, can push money out and go "all in" for a year or two. However, after that time period is up, they start feeling the sting of shedding all that excess cap that was piled up.
A team can also us the cap system to "build for the future". I can't remember what the number is, but a team can carry excess cap into the following season. Along with doing that and not pushing actual salaries out, a team can rebuild with younger players and cheaper vets. Then when they are ready to go "all in", they have the means to do it.
The trick is balancing somewhere in between the 2 methods, in my opinion. To go from greatness to terrible isn't going to please a lot of fans or owners.
As I was reading through the few previous posts, my finger kept reaching for the "lock this thread" button.
The more I think about any FA WR, I just don't see the need. Unless they think that Coutee has been way under the radar and has the potential to become an above average WR in the NFL. Chances of that, are about zero. In 5 seasons he hasn't done squat, with 2020 being his "best" season, 33 rec. 400 yds and 3 td's.
I don't think he gets signed. They just merely had him in for a workout and a possible camp body. He is not getting ahead of Watson, Doubs, Reed, Toure, Wicks, or even DuBose. He would be competing for a practice squad spot with guys like Cotton and Melton.
Interesting prospect. He didn't make it on the Commanders. Either he isn't good enough, or our WR corp stinks worse.
Big Mistake! Nick Guggemos is the next Gronk!! Actually, Guggemos was a track athlete who is a freak but hasn't played a whole lot of football. Other than WR, I can't remember many examples of successful track to gridiron recruits. The notable examples were Bob Hayes and Renaldo Nehimiah. The game has changed a lot since then making the transition more difficult.

He's a camp arm. I'd be shocked if that guy makes the roster. I'm guessing PS at best.Packers are signing another QB. USFL MVP Alex McGough
Of course, don't get too excited Jace Sternberger might have been the top TE in the USFL last season.
"Jace Sternberger, a former third-round pick of the Packers, benefited significantly from McGough’s production. He was arguably the best tight end in the USFL last season, finding the end zone seven times with 517 receiving yards to his name."
USFL MVP Alex McGough to sign with Packers after successful workout
The reigning USFL MVP will reside on the Packers’ roster ahead of training camp.
Probably true, but with what they presently have competing for #2, they're all in the hunt. I honestly have no idea who will actually end up #2. I'm guessing Clifford, because of draft, and contract, but not certain.
My thoughts also. He was a 7th round pick. Maybe he took a few years to develop and is this season's Kurt Warner.
