I’m saying the window to the future will be more closely shut if we over pay Dakster according to his talent level.If it’s only about where things stand today then why are you talking about a window in the future? And why would the team not use up every penny of cap space every year?
But the reality is the future is always a consideration, and why contract negations are often so tough and protracted. If the salary cap we’re going to stay exactly where it is today, and Dak were going to get a guarantee to always be paid in the top 5, the negotiation would be very different, and the team would be much more reluctant to lock into a long term deal with considerable guaranteed money.
We don’t consider him a Top 5 or even Top 10 QB. Why would we pay him as such?
