I'd gladly give them our second for him. Not going to happen however.

KC is wanting two first for him. He is good, but not two first good.

Looks like the Dolphins gave up a 1,2,4 for him and some draft picks next year. Plus they are apparently paying him 30 million a year for 4 years. That's just way too much for a team to give up especially one without a QB.

Miami and KC settled on the following trade compensation for Hill:

1 - First Round pick (2022)
1 - Second Round pick (2022)
2 - Fourth Round picks (2022 + 2023)
1 - Sixth Round pick (2023)

And then Hill himself just saw Davante Adams sign for nearly $150m.

First I think that Ballard said about the same thing about Tevi just before we signed Fisher. I think, from the way that they talked about Fisher when he was signed, that Ballard thought of him as a two year trial. I think he probably still does. He let Armstead (who I never wanted, unlike most people here. To expensive and tends to miss games) set the market for what a top LT gets. I expect Fisher to sign soon, hopefully with the Colts.

Also, apparently Tyreek Hill is shopping around. Not Colts related, but interested.

Looks like the Dolphins are getting him.

I guess some voodoo is about to happen, then. On OTC, it shows the Dolphins with like $3.5m effective cap space. And that's without Armstead's contract updated.

Am I mistaken? Isn't the rule that you can go over the cap and pay a tax, but once you're over you can't continue to sign guys? Armstead should put them over.

You don't have to be under the cap until after final cutdowns to a 53 man roster. But then is includes all 53 players and your practice squad. Once you are "in season," then it is a $5m a pop hit for going over the cap. But during the "off" season, there is no penalty for being over the cap.

No, there is no rule that you cannot sign free agents even if you are over the cap during the off season.

Why don’t we just sign Will Fuller. He’d fit in with all our other receivers with his injury history
