Zach Allen Signs with Denver
- Thread starter Dayman
- Start date
I have us at 3.
Seemed inevitable. We are building for the 2024 season. Not only will they not pay their own players top money this offseason, I don't think we'll pay any free agents significant money as well.
What do we have, 11 picks right now in the draft? I see them clearing the way to play all the rookies for development. They'll focus on getting Kyler healthy and then we'll have a ton of cap space to go spend next offseason. Just a prediction.

Next stop, Hall of Fame!
Give me a call when the 2024 season starts. Or maybe the 2025 season. Or maybe, oh screw it don’t call me at all…
11?? Isn’t it 8?

Every team tries this approach and most fail. And what is the point when you don’t re-sign them.

And yet he was still our second best defensive front player.
Arguably our best
Nahhh that was Watt

lol. Imagine going directly to excuse-making for Michael’s second choice for the role.
We have top 10 cap space right now. The price will only go up next year. Cap space isn’t going to rush the passer in 2023.

Called it a couple weeks ago… the dreaded “building the belly of the beast” and “keeping our powder dry!” Off-season looks like it might be rearing its ugly head again.
You have to wonder if Allen is here if we sign Payton and keep Vance
Steve Keim would have overpaid Allen and Murphy to stay since those were his guys. I just have a feeling that the "Patriot" way, aka Monti way, is going to be to build primarily through the draft.
The more I think about it the more I think we aren't hanging onto the 3rd pick. I also think Monti may feel overwhelmed with the Kyler contract he inherited so he is clearing the cap space starting now.

If you have us that low then sit Kyler out for the season. Plan to move him.
Because Maye and Williams will have as much hype as any QB in a while.

You really don't have to wonder that
Cap Space does pay for fired coaches and a plane though
Yeah personally I loved Allen and it was cool to see him grow every year. Again, I'm just thinking about the "Patriot" way. They let go of Chandler freaking Jones, it isn't surprising to me that the new regime didn't resign Allen, especially considering next year already seems like a wash of a season.
You need Kyler to come back late and play well to move him
I’m betting he’s here if we just retained VJ many of the players really liked him. But if that was the cost I’ll pass.
Is that even financially possible after next year?

Well I don’t like it, but I kind of understand it.
i think the plan is to get a ton of picks in this draft by trading down, like 15 or more, fix our cap situation, and hopefully coach them all up.
