How old are you Snake? I am going to attempt to not be disrespectful but you sound like a dumb fucking kid who grew up playing madden and smashing the fantasy draft option while turning off salary cap.

Do you not understand market value?

Do you not understand leverage?

Do you not watch other NFL QB play in other NFL games?

I keep seeing you say things and use words like "incentives" but I dont think you understand how it all fucking works. Its making my god damn head hurt.

You want to keep the QB position around 12-14% of your total salary cap. The cap itself will conting to grow for a few years. What does that mean? Well, it means that the % of value will continue to rise as long as the NFL needs average to good QB'S.

Let me break it down for you in a different example.

Okay, say you buy a diamond earing today for $1000 dollars. Pretty steep right? Well, let's say somehow planet earth manages to find and mine a whole planet of diamonds far away and brings it all back to Earth. Well, the value of the diamond just became less demanding. So now, you will get that earing for even less. Lets say... $200.

Okay, now lets reverse that. Lets say you just bought the last diamond earing on earth because as soon as you put it on, every other diamond on earth went fucking poof and vanished! NOW, your diamonds value has increased! You could probably get it for 5x the amount you initially invested for.

Thats kinda how the QB position works in the NFL right now. With less QB play, we have to pay for more value. Especially when teams like the Texans pay 20 million to a guy named Brock Osweiler and he sucks ass. So, guess what? That made the position EVEN more valuable!!

Another example would be.... If Aaron Rodgers was to get offered a contract tomorrow. He would probably make close to 28 million dollars a years because hes considered a tier 1 QB which is even more valuable then a tier 2 QB. Guess what Kirk is?

Yep.. You guessed it. Hes a Tier 2 QB. So guess what his value stands around? Hes going to get offered more then his tag or he wont accept it. Want to know why? Because he has leverage. Ohhhh. There is that leverage word again.

Leverage means you basically have the person you cranking a deal with by the fucking balls because the stupid fucks decided to tag you the year before instead of offering 19-20 million LAST year. When the VALUE of the position was lower.

The draft is also adding to this value because there isnt 1...NOT 1 starting caliber QB coming out this year yet.. So, that adds... You wanna guess???

VALUE!!!! There it is again. It adds value to the poisition and allows Kirk agent to have MORE leverage!!!

So please do yourself a favor.. Look up current % market of QB and the % of each cap per team. Also google how much the cap will be increasing by that % each year.

Then.. do yourself one more favor and shut the fuck up about "incentives" and 18 million dollar contracts. You cant offer anyone "incentive" based fucking contracts when they have all the fucking leverage. Hes going to get what hes going to get Gauranteed. There will only be incentives after hes earned his VALUE.

Please understand the difference or stop posting. It gives me the shits.

Thank you. Maybe I could of been nicer but you seem to not get it. I apologize for being rude.
