What is a “3 year split?”

A split salary protects the team against injury. So if a player gets hurt under a split contract they get paid less. You’ll *never* see a good player have one but usually late round/UDFA who have injury concerns have them written into the contract.

Hicks is a vet piece that’s elite against the run. If we’re sitting on 25 million, we should be open to spending to improve weaknesses. Like run defense.

Is he going to get us to the super bowl this year?  If not why would we sign more of a luxury player to a 1 year deal when we can just roll the cap over to next season instead.

Baffles me how we’re in that situation..

It's all this void year garbage we keep adding.  We had the chance to take our lumps with those @(*&$ contracts the last two years and kept kicking the can down the road.  Now it's catching up.

I think Ionidas is the only player with void money next year (around 4 m).

Meanwhile we'll probably roll over 15m. 

We can cut Anderson next year and clear 12m.

Burns will be extended so his 16m. hit will probably end up being 4-5m.

DJ's base salary of 20m can be converted to bonus and save around 15m.

Cutting Elflein next year saves just under 5m.

We don't know how high the cap will go up next year.

And that's all without touching Shaq, CMC, or Moton.

We'll be ok.

I mean it doesn’t sound like he would be succesful looking at those numbers, sounds like a run defender then again I remember us signing a few udfa DEs over the years that made the team and got playing time and were specifically run stopping DEs like Wes Horton and Bryan Cox. Both put up similar numbers in college.

can you write an autobiography?  I want to learn more about you..

 

 

I'm thinking he is a big time CEO type that has much responsibility so he spends his down time recharging and trolling us for some chill fun. I appreciate all his strangely odd responses. My favorites are when someone posts something really jacked up that happens and he responds with a "I'm completely fine with this". I know he isn't but he is seeing who he can get a rose out of and it's great. His humor often seems very serious in nature so it makes it that muchore goofy and entertaining. He is an all around very important part of the huddle. This site needs him.

    • I'm still not touching Hunter He again said the other day that he plans on playing both sides of the ball in the NFL.  If he is allowed to do that, he won't be as good on either side as his potential and he's going to have serious injury issues and have a short career.  If he's not allowed to do it, I think he's going to become a problem when the team isn't winning as he's going to feel him not being used on both sides of the ball is why. He's being coddled in that environment with Deion and I think it's doing a disservice to him to prepare him for life in the NFL where your coach isn't a 2nd father to you, to where you can just walk into his locker room and steal his shoes like Hunter does to Deion.
    • He’s a tad behind them. Around 15ish of 32 starters in the league. He’s well ahead of a lot of guys. Tua, Bryce, Cousins (present), Rodgers (current), Devito/Jones, Minshew, Russ (current), Watson, Smith, Carr, T Laws deep ball is weak as poo IMO, there’s plenty. And it’s not like everyone is ripping 60+ers. The key component is if you can rip and maintain velocity of the 30-40 yarders which he does super well. Legit every report out there from Brugler to PFF to PFN document him as good/above average arm strength.  Eye test tells me it’s pretty much that as well, slightly above average.
    • 6-10 carries for  35-45 yds and 3-5 catches for 15-25 would be great.
