Teams are going to have to nail their draft picks and get lucky to compete unless they put QBs in their own category for the cap. 

A QB category is not likely to happen unless it's demonstrated that teams can't contend paying a top-contract QB; that is not the case at present.  Top QB cap hits for 2024:

 

Prescott $55M -- DAL won their division and were the #2 seed last year

Murray $49M -- ARI stinks but not just because of their QB

D. Jones $47.8M -- to your point, he stinks and the team stinks

Stafford $46M -- likely a playoff team in 2024, made playoffs in 2023

Mahomes $37M -- Super Bowls and a SB favorite in 2024

Jackson $32.4M -- perennial playoff team in contention

Josh Allen $30.4M -- perennial contender

Joe Burrow $29.5M -- if he's healthy they're a contender

 

Knowing how to structure the player contracts to remain cap compliant is what separates the top GMs from the rest.  

Belichick isn't gonna coach again in the NFL. He's loving his freedom and 22 year old girlfriend too much to go back to the grind for two years.

The CBs look good but safety is a problem.

As much as we might've hated to say it out loud, but Xavier McKinney is pretty darn good.

Why is safety a problem? They signed Xavier McKinney in FA. Javon Bullard is more on an unknown but he’s a second round pick out of Georgia.

He's supposedly been very impressive in their camp and lining up all over the field. Something to watch for later.

He will. He wants Shula's record.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Baltimore Ravens left tackle Ronnie Stanley felt he was being singled out by officials during Thursday night's 27-20 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

Stanley was flagged three times for illegal formation. He was penalized on the second play of the game without any warning from the officials.

"I thought it was a little different," Stanley said. "And then the way it was going through the game, I really feel like they were just trying to make an example and they chose me to be the one to do that. As far as I saw, they weren't doing it on both sides of the ball, and I know that I was lined up in good position the majority of those calls they made. But we'll go back and watch the film and we'll make sure of it and we'll send it in [to the league office]."

 

After the game, Ravens coach John Harbaugh said teams were informed that illegal formation was going to be a point of emphasis this season. But Baltimore made the point that Kansas City was not penalized once for illegal formation, while the Ravens were flagged five times.

"I'm looking at their tackles, especially the right side, and I know I'm lining up in front of that guy," Stanley said. "And they didn't call him one time. It's a little bit of making me feel like I'm crazy, [that] I don't know where I'm lining up. I feel like we'll watch the film. They just need to be held accountable if that's what it is. If it's that egregious that they are making those calls -- and they shouldn't be -- they should be held accountable."

Last season, Stanley was penalized 11 times but not once for illegal formation. In addition to Stanley, offensive tackle Patrick Mekari and wide receiver Rashod Bateman also were flagged for illegal formation Thursday.

"It'll be interesting to see if they call it the same way the whole season," Harbaugh said. "I'll challenge them to call it the same way they called it tonight the whole season, so hopefully they'll be consistent about that."

The officials 100% did not call this consistently last night.

Pretty impressive. So, Mahomes throws the ball as fast and as far as he can `~ 62 mph and underthrows Rice by more than 50 yards.

He doesn't instantly go from 0 to 119 mph, you need to account for acceleration to his top speed :rolleyes: 

I'm gonna have very low patience for Jordan Davis this year. If he shows up the first few games and is getting bullied and not making any plays I'm gonna be done with the guy pretty quickly. Hope he changes the trajectory of his career though and finally shows like he was worthy of that pick.

I don’t like the guy, but losing family really sucks.  I hope he has a Brett Favre type of performance against the Cowboys this Sunday.

So you weren’t rooting for Barkley the past five seasons when the Giants were playing the Cowboys?
