[QUOTE="mradtke66, post: 947973, member: 4199"] I'm one who generally doesn't like dead cap, but right now I'm fine with it. First, 2020/2021 cap got messed up with covid and 2023 is set to explode with the new TV deal. Second, when Rodgers retires (assuming we extend him this year), I presume we're going to have a bad year regardless. Even when Rodgers took over for Favre, 6-10, no. 9 pick. Third, while I want us to win, I'd rather us crash and burn hard in a single year. Hovering around .500 is a recipe to be stuck at .500. Pats just did something similar--they pushed and pushed their cap out and 2020 was a brutal year for them. And in 2021, they're right back in the playoffs, dead cap largely moved on. In short, yeah, it's not optimal, but the pain is temporary. It isn't equivalent to having a super high interest/balances on the credit card. It'll suck for a year, maybe two, and while we're sucking, we should be drafting high. [/QUOTE]
