Daniel Jeremiah’s . Final draft

I can see some arguments but Wharton’s contract is what sticks out to me on the DL with Brown and Robinson in tact. Especially with bringing Brown II as NT. Unless Evero can pull off a 6 man rotation (counting Clowney going hands in dirt on sub packages)

That Wharton contract is the move that could impact us in the future, hamstrung further by adding an IDL R1 contract, but it doesn’t seem to be stopping us. We must be comfortable with the potential dead cap that would come from this type of overinvestment to assure something works out in the front 7.

I wonder what the numbers are to move on from Robinson if we take DLine early

Dead cap this year is rough, even post J1. But I’m sure they understand/Tillis has that scenario mapped out—at least I’d hope so… the Wharton contract is heavy for how we’d deploy him no matter how you squeeze it with Robinson or not.

Cap sites show the savings matches the dead cap around $5 mil if we cut Robinson post-June 1. So it’s either viewed as addition by subtraction or you keep him on the team until 2026 for what he can bring.  He’s not bad…but at the same time has been hit/miss (and a few times pretty bad last year with the reserves next to him). Was one of the better guys at his spot league-wide when he was in NYC.

    • 1) This is their last chance to get decent draft compensation. Is that better? A team who trades for a player on an expiring contract (the 5th year option in this hypothetical) is not going to give up much. The trade is essentially for the first right to sign the player to the second contract. 2) Compensatory pick is dependent on net free agency outcome and performance. A potential, late 3rd round pick next year is not as valuable as a 2nd round pick this year. These are forward-thinking roster moves that winning franchises make. I hope that makes sense to you.
    • That couldn't be any more incorrect. They can still pick up his 5th year option and then trade him next offseason.  They can still decline the option, let him walk in FA next year, and as long as he has a good season will likely bring them back a 3rd round comp.  And they could do either of the above and then still franchise tag him afterwards and then trade him for what would be a really good return, assuming he continues to progress and stay out of trouble. All of this while he's only costing them $5.4 million against the cap and trading him would only get them $3 million in cap savings. It makes zero sense to trade him this offseason unless they have serious concerns about him or unless they get a godfather offer they can't turn down.
