Why cant they get rid of the cap. Have a hard cap on teams trying to buy a Super Bowl but no cap on players you drafted or signed as UDFA. This way we keep players we want without having the animosity we have like Zeke last year and now Dak and coop this year. You can keep teams altogether and not be punished for drating well and coaching players up. Honestly we should start a union for fans so we have a voice in all this. After all we are the driving force for all of this, we should have a voice at the table or use what would hurt most, boycott games and dont show up or watch.
well, that was the discussion a couple of decades ago. they wanted to create a system that would be fair to small market teams, because teams like NY, Dallas, SF with money dominated the market, kept a lot of talent deep on the teams. so they created the current salary cap structure. that was to avoid teams like dallas and SF buying superbowls and providing opportunity for teams like NO, GB, etc. to play on equal fields....I think the salary cap is fine. it may need a little tweaking given the QB salaries are getting out of control. it puts great emphasis on the draft specially hitting on your first rounders. the recent trend has been teams winning with top notch players on their first contract. building a team through FA doesn't work since the talent gap on the teams becomes too hard to over come. I am OK with the current salary cap structure. I think it evens the field for all the teams. again some small tweaking not a lot.
and you have a voice...like you said. don't watch. but there needs to be a large number of those voices and given continued growing of NFL popularity, says most don't agree with you...…but just like Jones who got forced to get rid of garrett, given the public forces that pushed him into a corner (he wanted to keep garrett as he loved being in the coaches room involved)…..if things get really bad in the NFL, they will change.
I will continue to watch.
