How much would losing McGlinchey save the team? If true looks like OT could be the #1 pick for us.

Even if it isn't true we're likely looking at OT esp if Williams goes.

No QB is safe with mcwhiffy on the outside, resign Williams and take the top tackle in the first round.

Williams-brunskil-Alex Mack-Tomlinson-1st round Rook

The salary cap isn't a myth. It's real but it's also easy to get around. They leave a lot of loopholes that smart teams can use. Kind of like the IRS.

If they NFL didn't have ways to manipulate the contracts like they do then teams would be losing talent left and right.

Keep in mind you can only restructure into the future so many contracts. Lots of contracts make it difficult to do.

A good GM will only push a certain amount of monies into the future.
Look at the f**kin mess the GM for the saints has. Even without Covid they would have been 80 million over the cap.

Not if the cap rises exponentially. There is no negative impact on back loading starters. So, salary cap is not a real limiter.

All turned out to bite us in the ass except Ward.

Makes Sense, My point is that just be judicious with the re-structures. Again look at the Saints. Also, Even with a larger cap all the players would want there piece of the pie. Bosa extension may be 25 million per year.

Correctamundo! same with the Rams, the salary cap ain't no joke. But if you have a good cap man, he's almost as good as a GM in value

**If** the cap rises. This year it didn't. Also if there's is a labor dispute between NFL and NFLPA. Etc... there are instances (rare as it is) when the cap may not rise. Thats when the negative consequences hit.

Having good players makes any teams cap rise. But not necessarily does overspending on the cap gets good players.

LOL $35 Million a year for Hill? But the Years are all voidable, So I guess they could get out of it anytime they want. There is no way he gets all that money. It's just to save them $7.5 Million in cap space for 2021 and they will cut him after year 1.

They can. But that also makes him a FA.

They their have to pay him elite money or let him go completely.

It's not real. Teams use it to move on from average players. If you really want a player the cap will never stand in your way.
