Huh?
How could it? Trade 'em, don't trade 'em - it doesn't matter. You pay the entire freight when they sign the deal. Look at every one of these contracts as being league minimum deals with big year 1 Roster Bonuses. Sign a guy to a 7 year deal for 110 bucks and they cost you zero dollars in years 2-7. You pay it all in year 1. So if you trade them - fine, no impact because they didn't cost you anything. If you cut them, same story. Everything is paid for up front. |

I was willing to thrown an assload of money at Hargrave even though he's 28 and probably won't age well. I figured I was gonna get 2 very good years, maybe 2 more solid ones and then probably cut him after 4 and eat the last 3 years of the deal. But look at it this way - I had money to spend. If I don't spend it, I lose half of it. So I could either spend that $100 on Hargrave for 3 more years than I needed or I can sit on it, carry over $50 of it and just set the other $50 on fire. Both end up with about the same amount of sunk costs, but the former option at least gives me a good player for a few years. |

2 years of Brown would've cost you 13 (at minimum). 4 years at $46, if unspent, would've cost you $23 in rollover penalty. So if the guy never plays another snap for you, you're upside down $10. Not the end of the world. |

I just signed Roethlisberger on a 2 year deal in League 1 (Chiefs 1). I would entertain a trade. Could use a quality ILB, TE or draft pick.

The Diablos barfed at the free agent market but signed Heinicke to play in front of Drew mother****ing Lock! Part of me says I should try Big Ben but part of me wants to believe in Heinicke magic! |

Damn misses out on Cameron Heyward.
Somewhere on Billygoats Planet DJ'sRighnut is blasting me for going 3 years without being able to sign a #1 WR or interior pass rusher |

I'm not sure what Aberdeens strategy here. You let all those guys hit free agency instead of just re-signing them for much cheaper. Could have traded them for draft picks while your QBs are Kellen Mond and Jameis Winston. Thats a 8 win team at best. Could have stocked up on picks, grabbed a QB and have a ton of capspace to fill remaining holes.

You don't want Kelce for 7 years anyway. You certainly don't want to be paying an extra 55 for the privilege's of those 2 years. I almost wonder if he doesn't quite understand how it works. Because there's clearly something irrational about matching a guy like K-Pass or the shell of Josh Norman. If for some odd reason you want to sign those guys, just bid 'em up to 2 or 3 bucks - nobody's going to get in a bidding war for them. It almost has to be a misunderstanding of how the system works. |
