Umm Daks current cap hit is 31 million lol. It assuredly wouldn’t be if they acquired him. And mclaurin and Gibson are definitely passing have building blocks to build around.
And sure, considering the depth of their DL, yeah let Kerrigan go. Payne, whatever. Still have young, sweat, Allen and whichever of the former you choose.
None of that matters though because I just said they’d be nasty with him. Hypothetically , as constructed. And they would.
Why do you think it would be less? If it is less this year, it would be astronomical 2-3 years from now. If they were to trade for him, he could just name his price, because he has all the leverage.
Just let them go...Payne and Allen are their two most important players on defense. You let one go, and everyone else is worse. Now, all of a sudden, you're weak at one of the DT spots, your edges are less effective, and you've handicapped what you've been trying to build for the last 3-4 years, without investing enough to build a roster around a $40m qb.
Hypothetically adding players without talking about the cap ramifications is pretty pointless. There are a lot of teams that would be nasty if you just pick and choose guys to add to the roster.
