Yeah, in my comments above hoping they front load his cap hit to this year, maybe that's a bad idea considering the cap ceiling just keeps going up - in that case it may be better to keep deferring significant cap hit to out years where it becomes part of a bigger cap pie.
). Next year at $19M - might be the end of Keenan Allen, unless restructure.
I like the move for you guys but seems pricey. Mack is far from “All Pro-ish” at this point in his career.
Strong disagree here. Mack is probably the best DE in the NFL. He faces double and triple teams every play, especially when Hicks was hurt.
I just don't know how much you can depend on him given the age and the mileage.
Kelley was a 4th round pick. And you missed Teo ( :X ). So the track record is actually worse than you showed here.
Duh with Kelly - they didn't even have a 2nd round pick that year because Murray. I did miss Teo (who they gave up additional draft pick to get, right)?Kelley was a 4th round pick. And you missed Teo ( :X ). So the track record is actually worse than you showed here.
That said, I don't agree with the logic that, because Telesco has sucked at [insert draft round] picks, let's devalue the picks and throw them away. Not saying that is what you meant, just saying I don't agree with that philosophy... which makes me not care about what the second round picks have been with regard to evaluating this move.
I like this move. It's an all-in move, and I can't remember if Telesco ever made one of those before now.
3 year deals are usually 1-2 year scenarios, Year 3 is usually.a restructure or extension or release.By the way, details on Mike Williams's contract are out.
$14M cap hit this year, $19M cap hit next year, $27M cap hit the 3rd year or $7M dead cap hit if they cut him after year 2.
Seems o.k., doubt he ever sees year 3 (maybe the cap ceiling will keep jumping up and that'll look like a bargain by then
Cautiously optimistic - waiting to see how things go in training camp, preseason regarding his health and current level of play.
I understand the point, but he will have a $17M cap hit in 2022 and more later if they don't release him. It is team-friendly because they can release him without repercussions, but he still has a very significant cap hit for as many seasons as he is on the Chargers roster. I like the move to get him, just not sure I would characterize his contract as "team-friendly."
I hear you: he's not cheap. But he's cheap for a premium player. His contract is team-friendly in two ways:
This is also the kind of move the Chargers historically don’t make to address a position of need. I’m cautiously optimistic.Maurile Tremblay said:
There are quite a few FA tight ends and there may be some cuts coming from teams as well. I do not think they would head into the season without adding another proven commodity at the TE position.
Telesco had only ever traded any draft picks for a player two times -- 7th for Sean Lissemore and 7th for Cardale Jones. And IIRC both 7ths were conditional. So this is new ground for Telesco.
They also tendered WR Guyton and T Norton.
This feels like a short term run at a title. I like it. Waiting for the big splash on the offensive line…
Putting themselves in a position to go BPA. You can always use another OL, DL, CB. You can never have too many at those positions.
Sure, it was posted before he signed. The next one will include him. I liked his signing.
What more evidence of that do we need than the allocation of pt to Murray.Staley said he likes White but doesn't value the position.
