If you think we don't have any money to spend, consider the following:

The Carolina Panthers have $16.9M to spend this offseason according to this article (pretty sure this incorporates Reid's payraise)

The Saints, Bucs and Falcons have a total of $21.5M to spend, combined. Somehow, the worst team in the division (the Bucs) only have $3.6M.

We may not be rolling in the dough. But some good pickups to fill some holes will set us up nicely to take BPA in the draft.

I appreciate that! The glass is  half full! We will most certainly make a big little splash or two that will be well thought out and bring more than a ripple's worth of value. I guarantee it!

Bucs and Falcons yeah, id say they are in worse situation.  Especially the Falcons with the uncertainty what Julio may do again this offseason.

 

Saints always little to Negative cap and they still pull some crazy voodoo magic and lock people uo while resigning people.  I fugging hate the Aints, but their dam GM knows what the fug he's doing

  Yep. He can actually do 5th grade math unlike our Mensa candidates.

Don't know Lomis is that great. He just keep kicking the cap can down the road going all in whole Brees is still there.  Cap isn't hard to manipulate. You just have to decide if you are building long term or trying for one big run before Brees, Payton and Loomis all ride away in the sunset. Loomis is 63 having been born in 1956.

Falcons have been talking to Julio just like they were last off-season..he never missed any of training camp last year and I expect the same this year.  All of it was over blown by the media.

    • I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball 
    • 100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.
    • I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
