    My point is he won’t be giving us a “hometown discount.” Dude wants his money.

    He knows we're close, dudes got $20M deal already from being drafted so high. He can afford to give a little back come negotiating time like Brees and Brady have in the past.

    Wouldn't count on it but I wouldn't rule it out.

    I can see him signing for 25m to allow us a 5m discount to hang onto someone else and build a stronger roster. No chance he accepts the Bortles 18-20m mark though.

    But wouldnt begrudge him taking the full 30 which will be the norm for a top 15 QB in the next 1-2 years.

    Basically im hedging my bets haha

    Bree’s and Brady also did it after signing monster deals.

    Marcus will get around $25 million a year would be my guess. Probably 5/125.

    No, what you said was:
    No, what you said was:

    "what really stinks is that after next year, over half of our salary cap will be spent on 4 players. Mariota, Lewan, Butler, and Ryan."

    That's very different to what you just typed. Those 4 players would be $60-65M, a third of the cap. Having good players tends to cost money .Better than holding onto cap space like this franchise has done for years. They have money for Suh, pay the man and make a legit run .

    This.

    This is what I meant with my reply “for the good of the team I could see him taking a discount...but he’s not dumb” I could see a 3-5 mil a year discount

    I think they get you confused with posters like myself.

    I own that. Sorry
