Breh, I hate how much QBs get paid too (when it comes to how it affects the cap but Get Money) but that's the biz.At this point you have to pay him, but we HAVE to continue to draft well. His contract will cripple this front office’s ability to retain some of their top players in free agency
There's rumors the cap may go up almost 50% next year?
If we had an outstanding offensive coach with a great system, maybe we could buy into the "pick a QB high in every draft and put money elsewhere"
but we don't right now and we don't know what Jerry's gonna do at coach next season.
Maybe Lincoln Riley, Urban Meyer or Bob Stoops can do that, who knows?
To your part about drafting, as long as they get Marinelli and his bullshyt DT philosophy the fukk out of here, I have faith in McCay and our scouting department to do the job
to keep replenishing the team with talent.
