Since there’s a two week gap between the CCG and SB, we’ll call it an extra 5 weeks of work - meaning about $70,000 per week assuming you win (the totals are lower if you lose).

Running some numbers, it looks like weekly game checks for a $1.2m salary would come out to just above $70,000 game checks. So if your base salary exceeds $1.2m, you are actually taking less money as you play into the postseason even if your team is winning.

Guys like Mahomes and Kelce go from making $3m and $1m per week to “only” $70k lol

We had to go find a pass rush specialist because our first round DE can't get off the ball.

Not gonna hit on all of em unfortunately. But hey Rashee Rice and Chamarri Conner were A+ picks and Wanya Morris has to be a B at worst.

A playable starter at LT at the end of the 3rd rd is practically u heard of. Plus I think he’s gonna be a good RG next year

You guys who think there's going to be a CB and LT, do you think they are gonna sign Howard and Bahktiari because I can't think of any other way that happens.

Yeah the article I read was titled something like "Why don't NFL players look too bothered when they lose in the Playoffs"

Could be why dynasties like the Chiefs and Pats seem to get more out of the bottom of the roster guys

He looks like 2019 Frank Clark when he has to move laterally. But has that Dee Ford burst. Me likely.
