What a great looking deal this is from all the details so far - he comes in cheaper than Tunsil on a per-annum basis and is locked in until he's 31 as he's only just hitting his prime (and has already got 1 all-pro to his name)
but as others have mentioned this also opens up the ability to franchise tag someone else this offseason if we need/want to
when the dust settles we'll see the yearly cap hits and see what it does to next year's projected cap space but with this and the marlon deal done it makes the offseason a lot less stressful - we've got the 2 deals done we absolutely had to get done and now we can see how the rest falls without worrying too much and with the Ngakoue trade we also have options - the right of first refusal on Ngakoue and Judon and Bowser maybe gives us some leverage over all 3 (unless they all have the same agent lol)
