really should try reading Lombardi's work on the cap and how it's not as great as it looks. Not critical yet, but it's not some crazy number that we should just be giving out huge money all willy nilly... luckily, Paraag is one of the best at manipulating the numbers.

Lombardi putting up cap red flags to Paraage is like Grant Cohn giving Kyle Shanahan heads up on offense.

PM been master of the cap for damn near 20 years.

This. Lombardi is laugh out loud not qualified to talk to "Big Mar" about the cap. Like not at all.

Assuming this is sarcasm

You look at his GM stint with the Browns and reasonably assumed he knows the cap like Paraage. No, he doesn't lol

That's not what I was saying. I don't think he's qualified to lecture Paraag on the cap, I assumed GM was being sarcastic with his post. Probably assumed wrong

Sorry my bad

One thing I will say is that with Buckner's contract on the horizon to be negotiated and of course, if the 49ers make the playoffs, that cap space has a way of shrinking very fast in one year. I still remember HarBaalke having to let go Delaie Walker, and some other promising 49er players because of cap problems after the super bowl loss.

Awesome. Trying to decide what road game to attend, but we have a couple trips this year so will probably just do club seats at a home game. Always fun

Waking an old thread, but this guy will have his work cut out for him the next few years. Will need some CAP magic to keep this train rolling. That and smart personnel decisions.

Time for Paraag to live up to his reputation and keep the band together for as long as possible. We keep the right pieces together and continue to draft well and we will contend for years to come.

It will help Praag out if ShanaLynch drafts well and acquires good players via undrafted or via trades and free agency. I think front loaded contracts have to continue to be used, and avoid like hell any backloaded contracts.

It's not front loaded vs backloaded contracts - are bad, but rather the guaranteed money that's involved in both kinds.

Back loaded contracts really - over time- really become divorced with a players market value. Look at McKinnon- market value-wise his value is pretty near zero because of injuries, imagine if Praag wrote a back loaded contract for McKinnon? It would have been a disaster.

In a sense the average NFL players value declines over time vs what back loaded contracts do over time -- which is to go the opposite. Of course it depends on age, but 2nd contracts are given when a typical player 28-ish, and they do physically significantly decline after age 30. Pierre Garcon was (in a sense) a great example of that.

M night already years ahead of us.

He's going to have to work some magic in the next couple of years. They need the cap that McKinnon and Goodwin are eating up.

I have no doubt that we will restructure a couple of guys & release some guys to make room for what we need. We will not get any bad contracts as long as he is involved

Time to bump up our Off season MVP. Time to work your Magic on some of our valuable free agents. Let's get it done Paraag!

Kwon's restructure has Paraag's fingerprints all over it. Created $8mil of space with one contract.

We can do what we want with the cap. Paraag has it covered
