High motor however, beneficiary of others around him. We all know Philly DL makes ours look like a HS team.
In my scenario he would have Garrett and Luvu. I'm not standing on the table for him, but when Keim named dropped him on a pod last week, it made my ears perk up.

I remember Keim casually name dropping Brissett months in advance and we signed him. Keim did say Sweat might be a product of those around him.

That said, with Garrett in the mix, I think Sweat and the Bama wall would all look and play different.

You are probably correct, but can we afford Payne, Allen and Garrett?

No Allen would probably have to get moved if they wanted to address other needs. Sweat..Payne...Newton...Garrett/Crosby

We can easily afford all three.

Payne cap hit is 26.17 mil this season. If cut, his dead cap is 25.8 mil so no we can’t cut or move him.
Allen’s cap hit is 22.3 mil and this is the final year of his contract.

After signing our rookies and resigning certain key players, and already considering Allen and Payne at their current rates, we have about 47 mil to sign other players.

Myles Garrett has two years left on his contract at 20 mil/season.

If they really wanted to. I still want to rebuild the o line with Stanley or Jackson. Sign DJ Reed or Ward, not to mention a #2 wr. In theory yeah I guess they could. Still have to sign your draft picks and I'm hoping AP doesn't spend every last cent and push us up against the cap.

Maybe they extend Terry, save 14m and fit everyone in.

With that 47 million, if 20 went to Garrett, we could still get

Alaric Jackson- 16 mil/ year but only 10 would count this season

Reed/Ward- 16 mil/ year, 10 mil this season. Not a fan of signing either of these guys at their ages because neither is dominant and with Garrett, we don’t need to spend as much at corner. I would much rather sign Tee over these corners.

Still have to sign our own players. Only have 43 on the roster. If they somehow get Garrett, I don't see them tying up all that money into the defensive line.

For some reason I've kinda written Tee off as far as the Skins go. It just doesn't feel like we are going to be in on him.

Lattimore is an injury risk and AP called the Jets about Reed before he turned to New Orleans.

The 47 million already includes the reduction of signing our own.

Okay, I'll trust your math on this. So if we bring Garrett in and keep Payne, you think Allen stays?

Not necessarily. Allen carries a cap hit of 22.35 million. If he is cut, he carries a 6 mil cead cap, saving 16.35 million. Osa Odighizuwa is a FA in Dallas, only 26 years of age, and has ties to DQ, so he is an option, plus we have Johnny Newton. This is also a very good DT draft class, so I can easily see trading Allen for a third and picking up a DT in the draft. Plenty of options.

Yeah Fowler has un is on Osa. I think if you bring Garrett in Allen is gone. The cap hit on Payne is too big.

I keep reading about how good this DT draft is with 20 something NFL starters. If we can get a third for Allen, I would probably make the trade knowing Allen is gone and having his replacement already on the team in Newton and getting a pick to replace Allen.

Mekhi Becton is the player I want the most in FA if he is 10-12 mil. He is huge and we need size to compete with the Eagles.

A 3rd for Allen is what I've been counting on if he gets moved, but lately I've been hearing a lot of post June cut talk from the talking heads. I wish Payne's dead cap hit wasn't so high because I like Allen much more at this point and would love to line him up right next to Garrett.

I am still torn on Garrett.

Garrett should be a priority if the price is right.
