Rams GM: "frick them picks"

thaT is definitely part of the reason that they are really struggling this season.
I mean got the SB win but just trashing draft picks to bring in good players will cost you at some point.
No quality depth for real.

could they even afford to pay Burns salary with as much high-end talent on their roster?

The NFL salary cap is the biggest joke in the world, nothing means anything

If you have an owner willing to pay the restructure. Not all are willing..

So why would it cost the saints so much dead money to trade certain players

at some point you're going to need those draft picks for their cheap contracts

especially when you hand out big contracts to not doing well in your system ala Allen Robinson.

And an owner who understands when the bubble pops, you're looking at 2-3 years of cap management just to get out from under all the dead money.
You do that without picks and you're looking at 5-6 years of terrible football

Because they have treated the NFL salary cap like a joke, and CAN, if they want to, continue to do it.
Eventually for them since they have gone so extreme with it, they won't be good enough to justify it and will just have to pay the piper for a year or two and then can go back to treating the salary cap like a bitch

He could have phrased it better.
The salary cap can be a joke for immediate results in retaining your own players or acquiring new players.
Doing that makes it impossible to get rid of certain guys for years and years. That's why the Saints are fricked in terms of ever hoping to rebuild. 2024 is the first year we can really move stuff (but getting there without restructuring further and delaying the rebuild period is difficult).

Strictly in terms of just manipulating cap to keep a winner going, its a joke and the Saints have been the vanguards of that.
But if you need to rebuild, yeah, then it can kill you.

honestly if Carolina turned this down then they better be willing to pay him a big contract in the offseason

Well the dead cap space (especially with void years) eats up a larger share of your cap every year, with this method. Also the natural progression of age will create retirements. It cannot be sustained in perpetuity for these 2 reasons.

I need the Rams to offer a 4th rounder for Hunt.

Yep, I feel like beyond the next year or two, things will be bleak for the Rams. They got the Super Bowl, but it probably cost them several years of being competitive.

This is so dramatic. The NFL is the most fluid league in sports in terms of parity. The Saints could hit on a fourth round QB and be fine.
