Great ones at 10 million a pop? Or good ones.40M = 4 great DL players, for 10M a pop.

Robert Quinn signed a 1 year, $8,000,000 contract .Great ones at 10 million a pop? Or good ones.
I think QB is the one position you pay whatever it takes to get an elite player there.It dosent look like very much to me . Are the Packers , Seahawks , Vikings , Steelers Lions winning SBs
Pats with the GOAT at a very reasonable figure are pretty consistent at it , A guy that not only elevates the players around him but plays cheap seems to be the answer.
How much was Nick Foles and Wentz making together when they won it How about Flacco and Wilson when they won SBs or Mahomes this year Didnt Peyton take a pay cut in 2015 so the Broncos could get it done .
This isnt about Dak wanting to get paid THEY ALL WANT AND DO GET PAID . The difference is their respective franchises dont SQUANDER their rookie contracts and provide the team with talent and coaching to get it done before THEY HAVE TO PAY THEM!!!!
We didnt make use of the window of opportunity and IMO it dosent matter if its 30 or 40 MIL WE NEEDED TO GET IT DONE WHILE IT WAS 650K
Now we will be a few players away like all the rest of the teams that have had to pay . No matter how well we are coached or how well Dak plays it wont equal the 6-8 impact players we could have for 30 -40 mil
Rodgers was in playoffs 8 years in a row and I think 10 or 11 of 13 years going to 4 or 5 championship games.
Limiting the discussion to who’s winning Super Bowls again an attempt to spin supporting a narrative.
Brees and Saints a consistent contender much like Wilson and Brees are now despite how the team around them evolved within the Cap.
That’s what Elite talent at QB does for you. Is it a guarantee for winning SB. Of course not but it’s sure darn more easier to remain on top always a threat.
Unless it's a backup OL and your starter goes down. Then that 5 mil makes a HUGE impact!!!!!
How much we paying Filo? He saved our season.
How much we paying Woods? We suck when he's out.
How much is Joe Thomas making? He saved our season last year, though it was thrown away by others.
What did we pay Cobb?
Those 5 million dollar players can make a huge impact.
How much are the Chiefs paying Damien Wilson?
maxie, I think that is the best approach providing you can find one.I think QB is the one position you pay whatever it takes to get an elite player there.
Yep, he really was overpaid in DEN.I agree; Broncos won in 2015 with Manning on a hefty deal (at the time) and he wasn’t even instrumental to them in winning. They basically overcame his contract and carried him
Robert Quinn signed a 1 year, $8,000,000 contract .
I thought he was good /great last season . Not elite, but great.
Yep, he really was overpaid in DEN.
So on the interior DLine 10m will get you a Shelden Richardson/Dontari Poe (granted I am using salary cap numbers for 2019 instead of AAV which is probably a higher number for those players). They are good players but certainly not great. Maybe Mike Daniels or DeForest Buckner but again good but not great players.
To focus more on the 4-3 players defensive ends you are getting a Cameron Jordan or an Arik Armstead.
Pass rushers are criminally overpaid in the NFL.
The QB that just won the Super Bowl will be making 40+ M. The opposing QB he was facing is making 27M per season. The top four highest paid QBs in the NFL all made the playoffs last season. The lesser the QB the better the team, especially the defense has to be around them. If you’re looking to win a championship you can’t go cheap with a lesser player at the most critical position on a football team.
Yep, 27M sounds about right.
We didn't even make the playoffs, but who cares right ?

FREE AGENT QBs:
1. Drew Brees 25M
2. Tom Brady 23M
3. Philip River 20M
-----
4. Teddy Bridgewater 7M
5. Jameis Winston 6M
6. Marcus Marriota 6M
7. Chase Daniel 5M
Where are the 40M salaries for the QBs ?
The 40M salaries will start with Mahomes. All those QBs you listed signed their contracts a while ago. QB salaries have gone up since then. The last few QBs that resigned are making over 30M.
Yes i understand that . And thats why I posted the oportunity to sign elite QBs for that money , or go 8-8 with Bridgewater, Winston, or Marriota.
I'll bet that we can make 8-8 with Bridgewater, Winston, or Marriota... and not make the playoffs every other year .
