I wonder how the Cowboys will be able to afford both Parson's and Ceedee Lamb while paying their QB $40 Million.

They will find a way. Passer, pass rusher, playmakers. That is the priority in today's game. They will use their draft picks to fund cheap rookie deal talents while affording themselves to pay first class talents just the same as we have done

And Diggs signed a decent contract too i believe

It's all structure. Depends on how much, how they get the money, and when. Tons of rules within the contract can help. That's why it's so importanr to use an extension/contract instead of a franchise tag and/or fifth year option.

franchise tag and fifth year option are fully guaranteed and all base salary, huge total hits to a salary cap. If you can get it within the confines of a contract/extension, you can manipulate and move the numbers around to different mechanisms to make it work better for you.

Bosa probably wants a little walking around money this weekend, I bet he signs.

Good one. 9/7 should be Nick Bosa day.

Haven't signed because he's been trying to get rid of the fat body Bosa.

Yes, it should be National Nick Bosa Day with sports bars giving away free wings or something lol

Come on Nick! 9/7 baby let's goooo

I would lay odds that a lot of people in here who are agitating about Bosa's deal getting done will be complaining about how much cap space the team will have invested in a handful of players a couple of years down the line. The Niners are really walking on the edge when it comes to paying their stars and fielding a competitive team. They are going to have to hope that they can continue the success they've had in finding good players in the later rounds of the draft and be completely brutal about cutting ties with the guys they have already paid when those players start getting a little long in the tooth.

Trent Williams will probably retire soon so that will help. They have already indicated they won't be picking up Kinlaw's 5th year option, so that will help. Arik Armstead is a potential cap casualty that comes to mind. Then Kittle. I suspect at some point they will have to decide between Aiyuk and Deebo. One of the reasons that losing the three number ones they ponied up to get Lance doesn't bother me too much is that the bill's would have started coming due on those contracts next year but now they can use that money on Bosa and some of their other guys who have already proved their worth.

As I mentioned above the absolute key to this team's success will be to find guys like Warner in the 3rd, and Greenlaw and Kittle in the 5th, and Hufanga. This year it looks like they might have found some keepers in Ronnie Bell, and the two LB's Winters and Graham, future replacements for our current guys perhaps, though it would be my hope that Warner retires as a 49er. We'll see what happens I guess. Go Niners!

Niners will be lining up Vet Minimum on the opposite side of Bosa for years

Read ian Rapaport's article. He says they are not close, but then he says 49ers put a substantial offer on the table. That tells me they are not only close, but that its the details that are taking time. Kyle expects him to be there next week so that means sometime before next week things should get done. I hope.

Eventually Armstead's salary allocation will go towards the person opposite Bosa...
