Now that Tyler is signed does anyone know what our new cap looks like? Also who are the next guys up for us to sign?
Aubrey?
Pickens is wait and see how he plays and acts?
Sam Williams, Guessing same as Pickens?
Who else would you say?

Thanks

Details of Smith aren’t out yet but he’s getting $96m over four years with $81m of that guaranteed

Here are the recent changes

Most likely a DE.
 
I haven't seen the details of his deal yet but I would bet his CAP impact in 2025 is minimal. Although with $38 million in CAP space maybe it would make sense to use some of that to front load Tyler's contract a bit. Either way it is going to be used either this year or by rolling it over into 2026.
 
Aubrey is the next guy to get a deal imo, probably before the season ends.

Pickens and Sam are the two guys that will potentially require the biggest payday next offseason. But I don’t see them signed before the offseason.

Donovan Wilson is a free agent as well, but he’ll need to play really well to stick here imo. He hasn’t really lived up to his last contract.

The other guys that might get expensive are some of the guys we signed to one year deals this season. Guys like Elam, Fowler and Javontae might require big deals if they end up having big seasons.

Aubrey does need to get done.

Pickens, id sign early at a discount. I highly doubt hes open to that.

Sam Williams has yet to put it all together for a season. I cant imagine negotiating "market value" on him. He needs to prove himself this season.
 
Obviously this year the cap isn't even an issue. Going forward, we have plenty of cap space. Enough to sign a defensive player of the year type player if we want. :thumbup:


As soon as we restructure Dak next year the cap space skyrockets and we don't even need to restructure him because doing so with CeeDee and Osa will free up a ton of space as well

edit: Remember to add the $39M in rollover space from this year if you are looking at OTC. See Spotrac

That would be a very smart thing to do. Rolling over 30-40M is a bit extreme. Then again, our 2026 cap might say otherwise. I haven't looked.

Extending Smith after 3 years helps the cap as it is. Front loading the contract just a bit, all the better. I highly doubt they'll spend the money otherwise.

Agreed. But Sam isn't a top market value player. You pay him like you would pay a WR2. Otherwise this is his last season here.

Tyler still has another year left on his rookie contract. So all that’ll hit the cap until that’s over his is new signing bonus. His new deal doesn’t “start” until… 2027? This is the great benefit in signing your players early

Well that remains to be seen I mean I agree right at the moment But let's give the guy another 16 games and what if he has 14 sacks and a bunch of pressures then what I mean Randy Gregory look what he got from Denver I mean it was basically our offer without the very much needed clause that Steven Jones was smart enough to throw in there and get the deal blown up...

I mean what did Fowler and Armstrong get to start at Washington I mean Armstrong was not that good a player to be a starter but what was he making money wise I don't know i'm asking...

And he wasn't putting up big numbers I know that... Yeah, we need to wait and see.... I for one wanna see the whole entire room of edge rushers who's gonna rise to the top and just take that number one spot....

He's got a year left and 5th year option. So yeah, 2027. But they can structure the contract any way they want. I'm guessing they can restructure this year as well. Not sure.

By the way I wouldn't sign another player outside of Aubrey until they all show up and prove they deserve the money sam I don't know why they even mentioned him this month about being next on the list or Next up and George Pickens after last week I need to seize the full season before I decide on him...

The only money I would spend if I'm Jerry if he wanted to do one more deal is aubrey I mean how much could a kicker really cost why is that not done yet? I would assign Aubrey before Hunter or Ferguson....

all true

The only one there I would do if they wanted to do one more Before the next offseason that would be Aubrey...

You don't sign Pickens. He's exactly the kind of guy that will lay down on you once he gets the money.

He was already laying down last week.
 
How Automatic Aubrey isn't extended yet I'll never understand.
I do,

they've been super busy with a lot of contracts, I don't think any of them are pressured to get it done ASAP..

so they're doing one at a time and they'll get to his when they get to it.. I mean I don't think you realize they're in the middle of a season after all that Parsons drama and they're continually trying to get players signed. they have players injured. they're trying to make practice squad moves. I mean it's pretty hectic behind the scenes, I'm sure.​

what's the hurry? I don't know the details of his rookie contract and when it's up and all that but there's plenty of time..
