Wouldn't extend Payne yet. I need to see the performance of Sweat and Young this year. Extending those guys will cost $25M or $30M per year, if they play like they should be able to.

Ends are more important than DTs, and I'm not sure we can afford to pay Payne and still have the cash for Sweat and Young.

Ideally we would have cut Ioannidis and kept Settle, but Settle wouldn't want to stay here behind Payne and Allen, he wants to play, as he should. We were never keeping Settle.

And as much as I loved Ioannidis, he has not been impactful the last few years since the knee. These kinds of salary cap decisions are those that all teams with QBs on their second contract have to deal with.

Depth should be filled out with young guys with upside and bargain FAs. We should not be paying our depth guys starter money.
