Derek Carr won’t take a pay cut for 2025 but willing to restructure to help the cap

Not many of those guys were high upside, mostly projected special teamers. I did think Gay and Amadi played fairly well for what we signed them for. But far too many bad signings like Cedric Wilson and Jamal Williams for my taste. Granted I guess I'm asking a lot from the same people who drafted Davenport, Foskey, and Payton Turner. And Young was only 46th in salary, we paid $13 million for him in total compensation and because of void years $9 million of that will be dead money in 2025.

Jamal Wiilliams wasn't last year. Lets keep things in context. You, and many people here are saying Loomis needs to go for the type of changes that this organization needs to move forward. I'm presenting you with visible evidence that the pivot you're saying Loomis is incapable of doing, was actually indeed done last year. If I'm not mistaken 9million will be spread right? So that's a 4.5mil cap hit.

Even if not, it doesn't constitute the horrible contract's that we've been known to dole out, but you are squeezing the narrative so it fits. Again, we get a 3rd round pick out of the deal if he leaves. That's not "bad business" sir even if you want to make it that way so it supports your thoughts.
