    Sure, they might mention his cap hit. But they will not talk about him being one of the top five QBs in salary…because they look at average over contract when they do that.

    Lol… I am talking about ONE season. Next year. I’m also not talking about what the media will say about this lol. Just simply posting factual information about the restructure.

    $9.3 million before draft picks are taken out. So more like $5 million in cap space.

    Harold Landry, Jayon Brown, Rashaan Evans, Nate Davis, Ben Jones are all FA’s. That’s 6 starters right there. Doesn’t mention guys like Firkser who will see more playing time this year and could be key contributors.

    Plus there is already talk of Julio potentially wanting a new deal if he balls out this season. I’m sure AJB will want a new deal next offseason too.

    Im not saying the sky is falling but to totally ignore it would be silly.

    Either a lot of guys are going to not be re signed or we are going to cut a lot of guys to make room. Regardless there’s a very good chance there’s a lot of turnover again in 2022. That’s all I’m saying. Tannehill’s restructure helps us massively this year but not so much next season. Which I think is why JRob didn’t want to do the restructure just to create room. Had to be for a specific addition and we got that in Julio.

    Is 2 pages necessary regarding Tanny's cap hit in a Julio Jones trade thread? Y'all making my eyes bleed.

    Aren’t all our draft picks signed? The 9 mill in space includes the draft picks I am pretty sure. And those it might not include, will simply replace people making pretty much what the draft picks will make.

    But I think you are definitely right about there being some significant roster turn over next year.

    Draft picks for 2022. Gotta allocate money for those picks.

    Let’s let JRob worry about that and let’s talk about this season not next.

    Ah, got it. The nine mill plus the increase of 26 mill in the cap will help. But as you point out, Tannehill takes up a lot of that.
