One thing I don't get however, I may be not understanding or missing something though. If you have say 10 mil available right now, what is the benefit of rolling it over rather than signing a player or two on 1 year deals for say 6 mil in total. Once the new league starts you get that 6 mil right back anyway as long as you don't have any dead money type years attached. But just clean 1 year deals. I don't understand the benefit of the rollover unless the league gives you something extra for doing it? The only benefit I can see is to just have that money available during the year in case you want to do extensions during the year. 

I’m not understanding how it is that you believe "Once the new league starts you get that 6 mil right back anyway”?  Once the money is spent, it is gone.  So if you sign a one year deal player for $6 million, your $10 balance goes down to $4 million, which then rolls over at the end of the year to the next year … giving you $X.00 plus $4 million.  The player you signed to the one-year deal is a UFA when the year ends, so you have an open roster spot.  If you don’t sign the $6 million player, you have $X plus $10 million and the same open roster spot.  So, in the $X year, you have more cap $ to work with.

Bottom-line you only spend the $6 million if you have a hole in your roster that warrants spending that money.

Man, I want this guy to be a Phillie.

Imagine this scenario: the cap is 200 million and Hurts' contract is 50 million per year.

If we actually pay him 50 million this year, that's 25% of the cap today. That's a large amount and makes signing players currently more difficult.

Instead, let's say we do 25 million this year and it scales up as time increases. That's only 12.5% of the cap

6 years have gone by, the cap is now 400 million. If we pay Hurts 50 million in this season, it's still only 12.5% of the cap.

 

So in this scenario, we are okay with scaling the contract to larger numbers as we project the total cap number to increase 

And I'm pretty sure we have a few dummy years as well in addition to scaling it to further offset the cap year to year cost at the expense of paying him way into the future, at a time where he no longer plays for the team. But when we owe him let's say another 50 million in this scenario, the cap might be 500 million and so he's only taking up 10% of the cap by then. 

If remember correctly, when you include the dummy years, we're paying Hurts like 31 million per season, including non guaranteed money, spread over 8 years. And we scale it upwards with the rise of the cap.

Also, considering how talented and close this team is, even if it wasn't cost effective to push the money into the future, the circumstances we're currently in still make this a good idea

Agreed entirely. This is basic financing. It can bite you in a black swan event like COVID, but for the most part it’s just a prudent way to manage payroll.

I kinda sorta like Milton Williams as an undersized but very athletic defensive tackle who could also get some snaps at end. But I also kinda sorta think he’s often overrated by Eagles fans. I think he was a decent value in the third round of a draft that was thought to be pretty weak in terms of depth, but let’s not go nuts here either about how good he actually is. 

As a 3rd DT I like him a lot. The issue I see is that I think it will be tough to keep him cap wise. He’s not a starter with Davis and Carter, but he probably can start for a lot of other teams. Good problem to have though.

new justbombs. My man Penix!
