Jones is worth $100m if Hock is worth $17m….
The Vikings are so stupid…
Wow.
$17m/year?
I liked Hockenson in Detroit. But isn’t that close to what Calvin got? Like, an actual game wrecking receiving force?
I know there is ‘cap inflation,’ but geez. That just doesn’t make sense to me in a ‘Wins Above Replacement’ level of thinking. We literally covered his output LAST YEAR with a bunch of guys making 10% of that money.
Is anyone ‘scared’ of Hockenson the way people might be ‘scared’ of Kelce (or Gronk/Tony Gonzalez in their primes)? I really don’t think so.
I mean, good for Hock, and I’m not sad the Vikes are tying up so much cap space. But it makes my brain hurt…
Vikings are set to pay $25.2+ million AAV to…
Hock, Josh Oliver, and Johnny Mundt.
$25.2 million on TEs not named Kelce!!!
And how much are they about to pay Jefferson? It seems like they almost have to go rookie QB at some point soon.
WOW
Jefferson about to get 25 a year
$32-34m per. Seriously. I think it’s going to be in that range.
There are 4 WRs already at $25m AAV….
and 3 more at $23.85 m….
he’s looking at $30+ million AAV…
More. Considerably more.
That would be my guess as well. Somewhere well north of $30M
I’ll be surprised if he comes in below that Aaron Donald 31.66m per number.
Tyreek is at 30 right now so there’s no way Jefferson doesn’t beat that.
Kwesi has to be setting up his rookie QB pivot. It’s the only strategy that makes sense given how he’s been proceeding.
And given the bust rate of highly touted college QBs, that’s a spicy meatball.
You’re probably not looking for a side hustle but apparently Field Yates needs some help with the salary cap.
Whoopsie!
Wow! Didn’t realize that
And are they bad enough to get in range? They’re kind of in that no man’s land of 15-20 IMO. Maybe they can find a 10+ like Mahomes or Watson, but that’s a pretty rare deal.
They’ll be too good for Drake or Caleb. Personally I think 2-3 guys are going to elevate themselves into viable starting QB prospects. McCarthy, Ewers and Leonard are probably viewed as the most likely to do that as of now.
The plan is to out-tank the Cardinals!!
