Tannehill contract 2023

They get 2 "post June 1st" designations per year. If they cut a player pre June first, all signing bonuses are due then. If the designate for post June 1st, it's spread over that year and the next year's cap. So you actually cut the player before June but get the cap savings.

 

Ah OK. Thanks for clearing that up.

 

Unless it's changed, you can designate 2 players as post June 1 cuts, but cut them in March.

 

2 options

1. Cut him with post-June 1 designation
$9.6m dead cap, $27m total cap savings

2. Restructure to clear space and keep him around another year or two

Can’t keep him on the roster with his contract as-is. This will depend on if the new GM/OC want to keep him around and if he’s willing to restructure. I’d guess he takes the restructure. Just hope it’s team friendly.
I still have faith that Tannehill can get it done if he’s got the support around him with OC/OL/WR and health. None of which he had this year.

 

I don't see any other option unless they are willing to tank the season of they think there is some hidden gem available in the draft. Any other vet is going to be around the same money as Tannehill, I'd think.

If a new GM comes in and even thinks of starting Malik Willis, they should be fired immediately. Hell, I'd kind of question em if they even keep Willis on the roster to be honest.

 

zero risk in putting mw7 on PS ... nobody gonna claim him cause they would have to put him on their 53 for what... a month? rest of season? something like that. Only a stupid GM would put a team in such a clearly noncompetitive position... just sayin'

 

That’s the answer!

Try to find his replacement next year in the draft at all cost once this line is revamped.

 

Agree, it makes the most since to try and keep him with a team friendly deal. Pretty sure that’s what’s going to happen.
