OR how about Kittle and Warner whose cap hits combined were $22M this yr.

Now we're talking about individual season cap hits, rather than average per year value of the contract? Pick an angle.

The rest keep competing for the backup spot. We'll have each of them play 3-4 games to showcase themselves, and build their value. It won't matter who the QB is because Kyle makes every QB a star.

By season's end we can trade all of them for 1st round picks, and then start over with next season's group of free agent QB's. We'll be like a junior college who manufactures D1 scholarships, except with us we'll stockpile picks. Super Bowl wins in the process because it doesn't matter who the QB is. Use the 1st round picks to draft nothing but all pros at every position. We'll never have to pay anyone top dollar (they're not worth that anyway). I mean they're used to playing in college and getting a little bit of NIL money, so anything we give them will make them rich. Shoot, the average fan only makes $50k or so a year, so they should feel lucky to even make league minimum.

Am I doing this right?

Of course you aren't. You are failing to recognize a joke/sarcasm, which was really born from not understanding the counterarguments in the first place.

If you want to play hardball with Purdy, those are your options. You say he has "no leverage," so let us know which FA QB we're signing and/or which QB you want to take in the draft.

I didn't say he has no leverage. Nice quotes though.

I was speaking to the group of "you" who want to play hardball and say that Purdy has little/no leverage.

Yeah and Tua, Herbert are all good comps IMO.

Herbert's first 3 yrs in the league are some of the best stats ever for a QB (for their first 3 yrs)

FA is Kyle's oyster. Just choose any of the above and add #6 to the trophy case already

Throw in Cousins too.

Cousins would be a bridge to nowhere.

You guys saying Fields and Mac Jones are as good as Purdy are nuts.

Not just as good, but better. They haven't had a HC like Kyle that can maximize their cannon arm.

*Except Mac Jones

Best solution provided yet. We need to email this to Kyle and John. So that they don't get suckered into paying Purdy's limited ass. And we can all stop arguing about Purdy.

i don't think purdy has much leverage. what's he gonna do, pull a leveon bell? i don't see it.

he wants to get in and play ball. offer the 200m over 5, he will accept and it's a win for both. from 900k to 40,000,000 annual, that's how you know you made it. if you type out all the zeroes, it look bigger.

Who cares about APY? it's the most hollow metric ever regarding the cap.

warner and kittle's cap hits have never been higher than $12M since they've been here.

In a reply to you I described playing 'hardball' as a gamble. That should have been a clear indication of the belief that Purdy has leverage, let alone the fact at no point did I ever say, or indicate, that he didn't.*
