Re-signed Daryl Worley today which is a nice add. He is the perfect example of a guy that fits the new ST rules on paper. One of your quintessential guys that could even start on the PS and use up some elevations before being added.

Looking down the roster, the team is pretty strong. If there's one position I'd consider adding right now, it's ILB. Not a ton of quality depth there with Harrison more of an edge guy, Board more a ST guy, and Ross never really recapturing his rookie year preseason magic.

You could argue QB, RB, WR, OL, or Edge as well but this is prime time to let the young guys/guys that are here get the reps first.

This is absolutely ridiculous. Tua showed them what he is when it counts and gets 53 per?

Love looked nice second half of the season but come on..... Dude barely played any football.

Love at least looked like he has actual QB skills, so I don't mind that contract nearly so much. He' looked good enough to get into "just pay him" range.

The Tua contract is crazy. I'd only want to pay him half that, at most, same goes for all of those Shanahan system QBs (except possibly Purdy - I might go up to $40M per for him, if he has another good year).

First Tua and now Jordan Love. Both are at the highest paid QB's or one of them on the list.

Honestly to me that kind of shows a near plateau of the market. Burrow got 55m last year and the cap went up by 13% and yet every other QB deal is at best matching 55m instead of going up to 62m. Even if Dak signs for 60m next offseason if the cap goes up by 10% it wont be the cap equivalent of 68m.

When I compare it to how the WR market went from Cooper's 26.7m (highest real money contract) to 35m now that jump is much more inline with the cap given that Cooper had his contract 2 years ago, and that Jefferson is Jefferson so he would be on top relative to whatever they had even with inflation.

It just seems like while other positions gained value this offseason the QB market held steady, or relatively declined, and maybe that is because none of the huge top 5 guys are up, but outside of Stroud in 2 years thats not going to be the case for awhile.
