It will be and should be, but Buffalo’s cap still isn’t in a great place. Lot of bad extensions they can’t get out of with any real tangible benefit.

Beane has to nail his next draft class or risk falling behind the top of the AFC as the roster’s best players continue to age out.

That’s where Veach has been pretty masterful. Hasn’t paid everybody — see Tyreek, Sneed for example — so the cap is healthy short and long term. Also hasn’t had any awful draft classes in at least five to seven years.

Just keep doing what you’ve been doing and if you make good picks, it’s AFCCG year after year. If you have a bad class, you aren’t ****ed because you haven’t abused your cap either.

I guess what I mean by that is, if Veach did have a disaster draft — say anything resembling 2018-2020 — the cap is in a place where he can correct for that error the following offseason.

Just was about to say this. It takes a disciplined approach and having far-ahead plans and different scenarios.
