Oh sure. One will, maybe both will. And maybe they'll even get more in terms of raw cap allocation (that's the key figure).

But I don't think we end up with a runaway train like we had for a bit when Ben, Rivers, Eli, Flacco, Brees, Rodgers, etc... were all sitting there in the midst of HoF careers (or the Flacco phenomenal playoff run and SB outlier) and just kept accelerating past each other.

I don't see the raw number of guys that are going to have credible arguments to leap over each other. This wave doesn't have that kind of cache just yet, IMO.

It's not 1 or 2 guys who are likely to blow that market apart. It would be a procession of guys coming into FA with arguments to skip over each other that lead to a runaway jury of sorts. Perhaps I'm wrong, but I don't see it. I don't see Dak Prescott changing the market substantially and I don't see the rest of these guys getting into the FA market unencumbered.

We'll see...
