It’s hard to complain about any of Veach’s contracts in the wake of a Super Bowl win.

Taco KPass Speaks Okafor Harris Ward Hanna Why would we spend any real money on Clowney? Veach has the $ to sign the rookies...where would another 15m come from? Let’s say Clowney would play for 10m for a year...we don’t have it unless we cut some guys. |

If Clowney needs $15 million on a one-year deal, it doesn’t work. But they can find a way to make $10-12 million work if the Jones extension is set up to lower his year 1 cap hit. That could get them to around $14M under the cap. I’d spend money on Clowney (or Everson Griffen, or Logan Ryan) because it makes the defense better. Clowney and Griffen would immediately be the second best DE on the team. And major upgrades. Harris, Danna, and Ward are not factors yet. You’re talking about a round 5 guy and a couple of street FAs. Taco Charlton is just a Hail Mary signing. Speaks and Kpass are depth. Okafor would probably be another casualty to find the rest of the money, as I think they save $4 million if he’s cut. It’s mostly a thought exercise. Suggs helped the defense a lot, and I’m not confident they have a second DE on the roster that can give them what he did. When your GM is as aggressive as Brett Veach, it is fun - and makes some sense - to look at aggressive moves that are at least quasi possible. |

Pretty much what Duncan said.
Extending Jones lowers his 2020 cap hit and gives you some $ to spend. I’ve been saying “Wesley Woodyard” for months now and he’s still a free agent, but there’s an over the hill vet to give us a Suggs-esque push, but on the LB level. He’d be cheap at this point too. |

Clowney is NOT worth it.

I’d take a shot on Logan Ryan with a one year deal if we had the cap space after a Jones signing.

His cap hits were $3.6 million in 2018 and $5.28 million last season. That’s cheap.
You guys need to seriously look at contracts on a year-to-year basis instead of the overall contract. This is the first year he’s making big money and he can be a post June cut next year with only $8 million total dead money. Not great but you guys are acting like this is Justin Houston or Eric Berry contracts |

I've heard Veach talk about,he has a team that their sole job is to work on cap numbers and they keep a plan for several years in advance. they already have a plan for what they're going to do in 2022

I can't even imagine the scenario where Hunt lets Veach walk. His toughest job yet is the next 10 years. We're going to need to draft at a very high level to keep winning.
