Gesicki & Ogbah

[rlandn]

These guys need to be extended, no matter what.
Gesicki has grown into an emotional leader on offense and his hands are elite. Pay him the 10-12/yr, worth every penny.
Ogbah is having a decent yr which actually plays into our hands in terms of amount he will be looking for. He is the one constant on our DL every week, he needs to be retained, probably keep him for 12-14/yr similar to Judon or JPP or Ngakoue….

 

[Mr Fan]

Yes to Gesicki

No to Ogbah, we drafted his replacement with our 1 round pick this year.....or so the plan was.....lol.

Miami is approximately $800K under the cap right now. They can't extend anyone until after the season without making major contract adjustments, which would just be dumb at this time. Next year the cap goes up and Miami is projected to be $80m under the cap. If they can't work something out with Gesicki they will franchise him which would be about $10m a year for TE's. He will probably be looking for about $13m a year, which is inline with the top 5 TE's salaries excluding Pitts.

Ogbah could test the market. It will depend if Miami can or will work something out.

Bottom line is, none of this is happening until after the season, they just don't have the cap space.

If Gesicki is allowed to leave, there will be anarchy.

Yes to Gesicki

Yes to both. You need at least 2 top Rushing DE/OLB on each team to be half decent. Ogbah and Phillips can be that duo.

 

[TannDaMan17]

Gotta keep them both. We aren't good enough to let them leave.

 

[phinzfan21]

Want to keep them both.

Fortunately we’ve extended Jerome Baker and Devante Parker and Jason Sanders and Adam Shaheen instead. We literally prefer mediocrity.

Not overly familiar with the cap, so maybe you can explain, wouldn’t the extension not impact the cap until the following season(s)?

According to overthecap.com, we have over 77m in cap space for next year. That's before we would rid ourselves of a lot of bad contracts. We have the space to resign anybody we want.

Wait, why? Don’t we need more than 1 pass rusher?

 

[ANUFan]

And Gesicki is only going to get BETTER! Welcome aboard everyone else.

Jason Sanders was first team all pro. Baker has been getting better each year. Short term struggles don’t quantify a career. Shaheen is not a big contract and Parker will be gone this off-season if no restructure. If they’d let Baker and Sanders walk there would have been rioting on this site. Their contracts were fair as per the market.
