There aren't really even any examples of it working out at least in the context we'd want it to.
Brady and Mahomes have won 7 of the last 10 SBs. There aren't a lot of examples of it working out period unless you have one of those 2
So let's massively overpay a QB that doesn't have those high end elite tangible traits and everyone is b***hing about him not having enough high end talent around him for him to be successful?
sounds like a great plan
Do you think there's middle ground here? I don't think anyone disagrees with your less-than-ground-breaking argument that QBs shouldn't account for more than ##% of the cap. I don't think you disagree with the obvious trend of serviceable QBs demanding top contracts. We all agree there are contracts to be had that are somewhere between the "Brock deserves $30mil" and "he deserves dak money fully guaranteed"
what the s**t are we even arguing about? He's not getting a fully guaranteed contract. He won't count for 50-60 (whatever his contract value is) against the cap.
there isn't an argument here. Is someone advocating for $60 million "against the cap"?
no. They aren't
he'll get top money, or close to it. It'll be a clever contract that doesn't f**k our roster. We can move past this portion of the argument…. It's an elementary level argument anyhow. He's not Deshawn, he's not cousins, he's not dak. He's not going to f**k this team.
and if he does insist on f**king this team, we'll move on.
