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

1. You brought up last year, I didn't I was talking about Carr as well which obviously wasn't last year. So context was kept. You just tried to narrow it.

2. Young's cap hit will not be split, it's $9 million for 2025 and we are not guaranteed a 3rd round comp pick. Either way they gave $13 million to a guy whose last two teams didn't want.

3. I'm not squeezing any narratives and haven't been a big "fire Loomis" guy like many have been. But he is not doing what I am suggesting either. We don't need to keep signing free agents with a bunch of void years. That hurts the cap further. I'm talking about cheap true one or two year deals for promising players stuck behind entrenched starters on other teams. No void years, not signing bones pushed 5 years out. It's the only way to get the cap right and have the flexibility we need to get the roster set for a new coach.
1. I brought up last year because that's when the pivot was made to "tighten their belts" and not give out bad contracts. The previous year to Carr strengthens your logic but doesn't apply. We're speaking solely on 2024 because thats when the aformentioned happened. Agreed?

2. 13 million to Bolster a defense for a year that has missed on a few guys isn't a bad contract. I get it, you want to make it one...but I don't think anyone besides you agree that it was a bad contract. However, if you want to stick to that I'll allow it.

3. Fair enough, and yet outside of Youngs contract which again nets us a 3rd pick...what contract did we give out during 2024 FA w/ multiple void years?
