If the option bonus isn't picked up, his 2020, 2022-2024 numbers will be the same as I reported earlier, but 2021 would go up by $7.5M from $11M, and 2025 would be $17M, but it would void on 5th day of league years waiver claim, which is after the SB.

Yeah you have a more reputable source?

$48.5M guaranteed out of $102M is pretty darn low.

Sounds like he's willing to bet on himself. Good.

You know who never misses games? Buckner

I just use the one the pros reference. Run along now.

Buck turned down $60M GTD from us so this is a great deal.

That wasn't true fwiw.

He said it wasn't true but man, it sure seems like it now, huh?

Yep.

If we don't bring in a DT via FA don't be shocked if we draft one.

Jones and all the bench guys oft injured will not be enough. Sheldon Day gets pushed around and I doubt we bring back Mitchell.

There's always a truckload of IDT veterans available and with Buckner gone, there will be a heavy rotation at 3T anyhow. Like the LDE position, it'll be split between a run defender and a pass rusher (my guess). Hopefully together, there won't be a big drop off. And at 2i, Jones as the run defender and AA as the pass rusher...Ford to W9 on passing downs.

Linval?

I would have never thought we would have picked AA over Defo but I think its the right one shockingly..

I'm really, really surprised to see him signed. Wow. It's good and I'm glad to have him. The 1 year of production does concern me a little bit. But I am happy to have him and surprised given the current cap situation.

Buckner is the better player by far. He gets the double teams while AA gets 1 on 1 and puts up numbers. I hope we keep both.

Yeah as just hope he can stay and have a deal like Armstead.

Armstead had his share of double teams, not on the level of Buck but he played well. He'll need to step it up even more.

Clearly I was wrong. I think the Dline will probably take a small step back. It should still be pretty damn good with Ford-AA-Jones-Bosa should still be pretty formidable. But think about what Shanahan can do with that 13th pick. There is a lot in play now. I'm not a fan of trading Buckner, but I'd expect a lot more holding on our Dline since referees aren't going to call it. Only way for us to improve is to have a more explosive offense. The offense in 2019 was very efficient- very few three and outs, moved the ball pretty well, and number 2 in scoring. But we need to add the knock out punch from the receiver position if we expect to stay ahead of the pack. I hope what we do in the draft is worth the sacrifice.

I hope you right with small step back. I don't think AA or DJ is ready to be double teamed every play and still make an impact.
