We still on this?
Yoooo some of us SOBs are masochists continuing this Tua discussion.
It was in pure ol' fashion Miami Dolphins drama that it took as long as it did. Cuz we are clowns in the NFL like that.
What? Other? Logical? Choice? Was? There?
Contract details? Bro... couldn't care less.
Trying to find another QB in another 2 to 3 years or 2 to 3 weeks or 2 to 3 millennia... I don't have the will, the strength, the desire.
We locked ourselves a Tua & now defenses gonna have to HAWK TUA!

I tried to keep it simple for just the few. Or the one.
It's cool brother. Do as you will.
Analytics...adults... have you seen contract terms? Do you have any opinions on such subjects?
You started this thread. Any input or thoughts?
Its started by op as to what are contract terms. He is still looking over his notes.

One question that the OP presented was the idea that we might now sign someone else with the cap space created by this signing.... and while I suppose this is theoretically possible, I doubt it for several reasons.
1) The front office keeps saying they are happy with what we've got. I believe them.
2) I'm not sure there's anyone worthwhile left. Most of what's left is more name than current game.
3) ...and most importantly, any unspent money rolls over to next year when we'll actually need it.
I'll be both surprised and honestly, pissed off if we sign anyone this late in the process... UNLESS it's for chump change.

What about Holland or Phillips or Hill?
Yeah^ I think the implication is extend Holland/Phillips or to indeed have more flexibility for a potential mid season move IF necessary with the understanding that the money also can rollover…. Which is actually super wise considering we are expecting to be contenders this year.
I wonder why his signing bonus is so much lower than theirs. Was their guaranteed money also a lot higher?
Also, what does the signing bonus matter in terms of cap implication?

In general... when you extend a player, your immediate cap cost goes down. If we were to extend Holland, it would be very unlikely that we'd use more of this year's cap. Just like with the Tua extension... the current year number declines.
Teams tend to extend players early in the process in order to create cap space to sign expensive players during the first free agent period... but that is long passed now.
