The cost of safeties is dropping. The Fangio cover 6 is kind of making them expendable.

It may make some high end players wait as long as possible but the average player needs to sign when they have an offer. Nothing is guaranteed. Plus there's only so much money to go around.

That's not the type of defense Bowles runs. And I think we'll see more teams move away from it as it's an old trend at this point.

26/year for an old wide receiver.

21/year for safety.

Tampa better thank god they were gifted a Superbowl season. They won't be back anytime soon.

I thank God daily for the salary cap. Veach and team manage it and draft about as good as anyone could hope for and it make us really hard to catch.

I just don't feel Safety is worth that kind of money in today's NFL, but I'm probably wrong.

If we wouldn't pay Sneed that, I can't understand paying someone else.

Ranked no.1 by both PFN and PFF, for what that's worth. Also bearing in mind that there just aren't that many truly great safeties in the league right now. If I posted the top-10 list from PFN I doubt most people would recognize more than 3-4 names.


Still, their GM isn't really known for overpaying players (doesn't even do signing bonuses apparently) so I doubt it's a big overpay.

He doesn’t play for the Chiefs so he sucks

Definitely one of the top 3 safeties in the NFL and played like the best last season. He's worth some coin, no doubt. I don't necessarily agree with spending top dollar on a safety but I can't blame a team with the space keeping a playmaker like him.

Yeah, but if we didn't have the salary cap we would be keeping all of our stars.

Either way, we win.
