[QUOTE="sschind, post: 598552, member: 10247"] As long as we don't lose Cobb or Bulaga. If either or, God forbid, both of them leave then we are a ILB, TE, #2 WR and a RT away. They have consistently shown they can find WRs with promise. Cobb was the last WR drafted that amounted to anything. All we have had in our receiving corps since was proven players leaving to be replaced by promise. I like Adams but even if he can step into the #2 role next year I don't see him as being as productive or as versatile as Cobb and that leaves a hole at #3. Yeah we may be able to replace him with Janis or Abby or another rookie WR but if we lose Cobb (assuming we don't replace him with someone close in FA) Our WRs (and TEs) have gone from one of the best groups in the league to average at best. I'd be fine with signing Cobb for 9 million if that is what it takes. You can't rely on Aaron Rodgers to make every WR we get into a stud. After this season Peppers has a dead cap hit of 2.5 million, he has a dead cap hit of 5 million this year. My proposal to him would be to convert 5 million of his salary this year to a SB. If we do that the way things work as I understand it it would take 2.5 million away from the cap hit this year and push it to next year. That would give him a dead cap hit of 5 million next year but since its at 5 million this year it wouldn't cost us any more in the long run. of course when you start doing things like that you have to be able to look ahead and see what our cap situation is like for 2016 as well. We may have more room this year than next or we may have more important contracts to deal with next year. I'm pretty sure Lacy will be set to break the bank after this year so we will have to figure out how to work him in. [/QUOTE]
