Cowboys are letting Dak play out his last year. Guessing this puts them in the Penix/Pratt/Rattler market in the draft.

Kraft saying Patriots would have matched Ridley contract with Titans and even add money to cover difference in taxes. Didn't matter, Ridley's wife wanted to live in the South. So they really went all out to get him, like 100% full throttle.

This is the same Bob Kraft who agreed with Tom Brady to give money back to sign Deion Branch and then signed off on the trade with TB money in his pocket. Same guy who said if payroll a problem he would sell the team well they're always at bottom of the league in spending last ten years and going on its 11. Patriots are second in revenue only to Dallas Cowboys the Pats third highest ticket price in the NFL basically they bring in the revenue of the Yankees and spend like the Rays you look it up. Calvin Ridley just because Kraft said so you have proof come on its not like he never lied before right let's not forget he blame BB for payroll for years and now truth coming out. Facility he is just building it because people are calling him out on it same with day care. but he said it's first time he has heard about it? Pete Carroll wanted to change the menu to make it healthier for the players Kraft said no we will feed them baloney sandwich and chips yes, he not cheap. I could go all day about how Kraft penny pinches this team just look up how New England Revolution are run. Now you can look for a sites that disputes me and don't forget your patterned saying have a nice day. |

Get a low floor, high upside guy while seeing how Dak performs in a FA year. I don't think they'll get a 1st rounder unless they're dead set on moving on. |

Some things I know to be true:
There is no way an NFL team can pay a player money and not have it hit the team's salary cap.
A payment made today (this year) might hit the salary cap tomorrow (a future year). But it can not be avoided.
Spending to the cap year in & year out, and then rolling any shortfall into the following year, means a team is "spending money."
RKK might be cheap (although he did build, and remodel, his own stadium). He might not be cheap. I don't know. But he assuredly is not cheap when it comes to paying players because every year (except Covid & eight opt-outs during training camp year) the team spends their cap dollars.
"Cash spending" is irrelevant in the overall context. As BB once said, and I paraphrase, "There is no cash cap, only a salary cap, so that is the one to be worried about."
The cap is not crap. It is the one thing that matters.

It is the one thing that matters. I would like to understand how they can constantly spend around the cap and be dead last in real cash spending over the past decade. I find that interesting. Still never looked into comparisons of owners. |

I could go all day about how Kraft penny pinches this team just look up how New England Revolution are run. Now you can look for a sites that disputes me and don't forget your patterned saying have a nice day. You couldn't be more wrong, no team in football can be compared to Yankees and Ray's spending wise, NFL has a crazy high floor. Two pages back I posted an article showing proof, 2011 to 2022 spending cash wise tied for 11th with 6 teams. They are 4th in revenue, not 2nd per Forbes recent report, Rams and Raiders along with Dallas above them. Cash spending which is by far the stupidest measure to look at because it goes up and down for all teams. This isn’t Baseball, there's no Yankees and Dodgers at the top every year, it's literally impossible. But a story about something in 1997 proves my point about Robert Krafts like 30 year ownership of the team. Things were different back then, new owner, crappy stadium, crappy revenue. You ever think about looking at cash spending on coaching? Bill was one if not the highest paid coach many years. He paid big for assistants like bringing back McDaniels, giving him more money not to take Colts HC job. Paying to keep Mayo. |

I found some and it's the same crap you see on tape. Do you think he’s a better prospect than Anthony Richardson? Because honestly I don’t. Richardson clearly has higher upside, but is such an extreme boom or bust type prospect. I can't talk in detail as I never scouted him. Looks like a more extreme version of Josh Allen. I did watch some highlights and he was very up and down. Only started one year and it wasn't that good. Pure what he could become some day, because he has all the tools. So Daniels likely has a higher floor. One started one year, the other 5 years. Crazy extremes. I really can't answer that question without doing an in depth tape review of Richardson. I only did Will Levis last year because of reports Patriots liked him. I will say I wouldn't want to draft either top 3, way too much risk and Maye is clearly better than both. The more tape I watched on Maye the more I loved him. The more I watched Daniels I didn't like him. |

The rule itself is understandable, it’s a very dangerous play that results in injury like 20% of the time (I don’t remember the exact numbers but I believe the league said something about 150 instances with 30 ppl missing time or something like that)
The problem is the people they have in stripes that are going to try and interpret the rule week to week

Understandable they’d want to limit injuries but this stuff is getting ridiculous, unless you want to make it reviewable, but they won’t. |
