NFL General Comments 2025 Season

[Hongbit]

I like the Saints CB Alonte Taylor but Tennessee paying him $20M a year is way too high.   I’m not a fan of Giants CB Cordale Flott and the Titans just signed him too for $15M a season.  A lot of money for 2 players that bad teams elected to not sign as part of their future.    Shouldn’t be surprised with the franchise that let Mike Vrable walk.

Thoughts on the Rams trading and signing half the Chiefs defensive backfield?

Even if it were true, Tater still doesn’t understand the Lions literally cannot afford $47.5 million annual salary. With Hutchinson that would be over $90 million in pass rushers. The bookend pass rushers for the 2015 Broncos were Von Miller, who was still under his rookie contract, and Demarcus Ware who signed for 3 years $30 million.  They had 11 and 7.5 sacks, less than Hutchinson and Muhammad. They didn’t spend over 30% of their cap in pass rushers. 

You can create nearly $90 million in cap space with the contract restructures. So you can indeed afford it. It is just a questions of choice and do you want to afford it. It is also a question of who don't you resign if you make a splash move like that.

No you can’t. That isn’t free money. You’re just pushing it out a couple more years. There’s a reason no team in the league has $90 million in annual salary to pass rushers.
