They have NOBODY worth spending money on. Nobody at all. They're going to go into the FA market with like $100 million in cap space and just spend like they'll lose it if they don't.
They're going to be able to out-suck the NFL for 1.1, IMO. The Giants have Barkley and that will get them to 3-4 wins. The Cardinals and 49ers play each other so there's 2 wins in some capacity there. The Raiders may get to 3 wins but 2-14 seems pretty likely.
So with Herbert, a likely WR somewhere in the draft and probably a pass rusher of some sort, they'll go HARD after free agents over the next 2 seasons. What the hell else can they do? They don't have anyone on that roster left to extend.

Surely they will flip that cap and some picks into trades, right? Didn’t they have this same deal a few years ago and had to give some shitty FB a massive contract to meet the floor?

Yeah, he wasn’t fully damaged until Gruden Rolled in. Del Rio of all ****s couldn’t break him. Gruden did it in 4 games.

Simms wasn’t awful. Until Gruden deaded him.
