Did you take into account the emotional attachment from the fans?

I won’t blame Patrick if he doesn’t but personally, I wouldn’t be surprised if he ends up being like Brady and taking discounts. He just seems to care about winning and being great that badly that it wouldn’t shock me totally. After the 2nd contract at least. |

Is his girlfriend a supermodel that makes $140 million a year? We at least need to get Mahomes brand selling which helps skirt the cap and income... You know TB12 is sold inside Gillette,.. |

There is no right or wrong way to build and pay for your team. Everyone wants to chase the latest trend, but there really isn't any (other than QB's get paid).
Last 3 Super Bowl teams and 3 largest cap hits Eagles - Jeffrey, WR(10.7M), Johnson, RT (9.8M), Cox, DT (9.4) Pats - Brady (14), Solder, LT (11.1), McCourty, CB (10.9) Pats - Brady (13.7), Solder, LT (10.3), Hightower, LB (7.7) Falcons - Ryan (23.7), Jones (15.9), Jackson, DE (6.35 - thanks Pioli) Broncos - Manning (17.5), Thomas (13.2), Clady, LT (10.6) Panthers - Johnson, DE (20), Newton (13), Kalil, C (11.8) |

I would LOVE to see the league go to fully guaranteed contracts that make deals 2-3 years more common. If we had that with Berry right now, it’d be awesome. |

Brady At 14M. Christ. Hopefully Clark does the same sweetheart deal for Pat. |

I'm guessing we end up with a decently long lockout when the CBA expires.

Someone on here suggested cap% contracts for QBs. I’d be down with that. Then there is no quibbling over gurantees and shit.

I cant buy any kind of Hill/OBJ comparisons, OBJ doesnt have the same level of drive and commitment to his craft as Hill does, in my estimation
Then of course we can always point to what a turd OBJ has apparently been behind the scenes... something thats never been a problem for Hill |

As I see it, the musts on the offense are Mahomes, Hill, and Kelce, with Hunt almost in that group.We're good with Watkins for 2 more years and WR #-3-6 are pretty much mix and match, so let's start looking at the O-line. We're going to need both Ts in a couple years, a LG and C. I'm not sure we don't have a couple of those guys under contract right now a a friendly price. Lots of Big 10 talent out there this spring.
On the other side of the ball, Jones is the only one I see we must have. Ford is playing for a contract, period. I just don't see him as a long-term solution. Franchise him if we have to. We're stuck with the Houston contract, so let's get Speaks in there more. I think I'm semi-OK with our ILB situation. Our secondary needs help, especially at the S position. Berry's contract, as it stands now, is a boat anchor. I just can't justify pumping a lot of cash into another big name S when we have some question marks like Lucas and Watts already on the payroll and Berry maybe giving us a couple more years.
