Was an undrafted free agent for the Ravens, was released in Aug 2020. Now signed by the Falcons.
Played at Wake Forest in college. In his final year at Wake he averaged 46.8 yards per punt (2nd highest in school history) and was named second team all-ACC.

Schefter reporting bucs may try and trade for OBJ b/c brady wants him.

i'm not sure how that trade would look but it seems trying to add OBJ would be a loss vs re-signing current guys and/or getting other good players on cheaper contracts.

but if godwin is gone and they get outbid on AB...

Saw that and skipped right over it. Reeked of click bait. Something like OBJ once mentioned he would like playing with Tom, so we specifically asked Tom about OBJ and he said it would be great to play with him, so they spun that into Tom wanting OBJ instead of accepting it as a casual comment from a great player about another great player.

There is no feasible way for the Bucs to make a move on OBJ that makes any sense at all. They are in a tight cap situation, have a lot of players to retain, and retaining Godwin would be cheaper and he is a more efficient player. Not to mention already having Evans and potentially Brown returning.

I might as well ask Bill Belichick what he thinks about Aaron Rodgers, and if he says he is a great player I'm going to post a headline that says, "Patriots want to move on Aaron Rodgers".

Edit: I also see the NFL Update tweet that made the comment about it has already been deleted.

2021 was scheduled for a $4.7M cap hit with $2.2M in dead money. Would free up $2.5M.

He played about 50% of the defensive snaps last year, recorded 57 tackles, 2 TFL, 1 QB hit, 1 pass defense. 0 sacks, INTs, FFs, fumble recovs.

My concern wouldn't be so much the fact that Beckham hasn't had a great season in about half a decade.  It would be that Beckham is the type of player that would rather have 120 yards and 2 TDs in a loss than 40 yards and no TDs in a win.

Godwin is the better player at this point. OBJ's best days are in the rear view mirror and Godwin's best days are yet to come.

I am assuming since we passed 5pm on the east coast, and haven't seen a salary cap post, that the league has decided to push back the franchise tag date from tomorrow until after the salary cap is officially announced.

Multiple listings on eBay appear to be a leak of the Bengals new 2021 uniform which they planned to unveil later this year.

Revised version of their late 80's and late 90's uniform. Nothing on the sleeves besides the swoosh. Small "Bengals" on the chest. New font for the numbers. Team founder and first coach signature in the collar.

The problem with this idea is that it is still the exact same issue they are having now with the franchise tag. Say you do a 3 year deal, and Dak plays great, and doesn't get hurt, either you once again have to tag him at a hugeeee salary, or once again start the whole process of making him the highest paid QB in the NFL.

It's time to shit or get off the pot. Either pay and lock him down for 5-6 years, or deal him.

So basically his first 3 years are fully guaranteed. Then a 4th year at slightly reduced value, non-guaranteed.

Makes him the 2nd highest paid QB in the game, and on the first 3 year evaluation, would be 3M below Mahomes avg and 3M above Watsons. AND ALL GUARANTEED.

Good for Dak.

Reportedly a 66m signing bonus,  75m total in the first year (9m salary). Would make his 21 cap about 25-26m.

So they save a nice chunk of cap over tagging him. Dak had all the power. Got everything he wanted.

Edit: They are now reporting a 22.2m cap hit in year one, so that would mean they included a 5th year voided year.

Valid point here. Mahomes is really expensive now but becomes cheaper over the life of the contract. Dak will be 31 at the end of this 4 year deal, in his PRIME QB years, ready to sign another huge contract (if he can play well until then). That contract could end up netting him much more than Mahomes overal depending on what the cap does in the next couple years.

That was the whole point of Mahomes' contract. He gets financial security for life, and the Chiefs get to build a team around him.

And I might add, it took about one day to go from "We hear there are talks of a Mahomes extension" to "Here are the details of his 10 year, half billion dollar deal." We've been talking about Dak's contract for what, 3 years?

There is some wow factor to that contract, but to me it’s standard for a starting QB of a NFL franchise. We can laugh all we want, but there hasn’t been a QB who’s won a SB after signing a big deal with the exception of Brady, and he takes below market deals.

Since they worked it to keep a low cap this year, if it's a 5 year contract (1 void year) it means years 2 thru 4 would carry cap hits somewhere around $40M a year.

Edit: THEN, if they resign him, the void year becomes due on the 1st year of the extension, so that could be an extra $13-ish million added to the 1st year of any new deal with the Cowboys, otherwise it is a dead cap hit if he moves on elsewhere. Steelers did the same thing with Ben, twice, and then got fucked because of the down cap this year. Hence the Steelers cap issues. Even with Ben's new deal they are taking double digit millions in dead cap next year on the new void.

The biggest cap hit in 2020 was $31.5m on Dak's tag.
2019: Stafford $30.7
2018: Jimmy G $37
2017: Flacco $24.5

On Mahomes' deal, they will break a $40m cap in 2023. So Cowboys would beat them to $40m by 1 year. Ben was scheduled to be over $40m in 21 before the restructure last week.

Edit: Something to remember with Mahomes is his guarantees are gone in 2022. His last 9 years he has basically 0 dead cap. Tons of room to restructure, or if something bad happens, straight up dump him.

Gross mismanagement.

Patrick Mahomes became eligible for an extension after the 2019 season. I'm not sure of the exact date, so let's call it the Super Bowl. He signed his extension on July 6th. It took 5 months to get through the draft, move some pieces around, and get it done, and I don't think there were any rumors of tension at any point.

Dak was eligible after the 2018 season. They made him play through his option year, and then they tagged him. The whole time, Dak was increasing his own value and gaining leverage with some surprise help from the COVIDocalypse. I'm no capologist, but I'm pretty sure this chain of events cost Dallas a LOT more than it would have if they'd have paid Dak when he became eligible.

It's not quite that simple. There's a rolling guarantee structure that progresses through the contract. At any given point, the Chiefs would be on the hook for 1-2 years worth of dead money if they had to cut him for some reason.

It's a pretty slick and interesting contract structure, but like many, I'd be surprised if they go more than 4-5 years without redoing it for some reason or another.

I know that cap has increased since some of these were signed but holy fuck. I would take those Ryan or Stanford contracts over Dak. Less money AND a free year.....

This just screams a Cousins to the Vikings all over again. Enjoy the cap hell.

Gross mismanagement.

Patrick Mahomes became eligible for an extension after the 2019 season. I'm not sure of the exact date, so let's call it the Super Bowl. He signed his extension on July 6th. It took 5 months to get through the draft, move some pieces around, and get it done, and I don't think there were any rumors of tension at any point.

Dak was eligible after the 2018 season. They made him play through his option year, and then they tagged him. The whole time, Dak was increasing his own value and gaining leverage with some surprise help from the COVIDocalypse. I'm no capologist, but I'm pretty sure this chain of events cost Dallas a LOT more than it would have if they'd have paid Dak when he became eligible.

he didn't have an option year, but you aren't wrong with the rest of it.   They could've done a much cheaper deal if they had signed him in 2018.   This was poorly managed by Jerry and company
