If your guy isn't elite, don't ****ing pay him shit. Because he's not going to win you a trophy.
Unless he's elite, he's completely replaceable. There's like 20 guys that can do that job. Do NOT overpay for that. You can get veteran stop-gap guys that mostly won't LOSE you games in lots of places.
But unless you've got one of those SPECIAL guys, like top 5 in the game type guys (or a young guy that legitimately has a chance to be one of those guys) you're wasting your time.
Just go get a Fitzpatrick and draft a kid. Seriously.

Jimmy G is already getting paid. We have one of if not the best cap guru in the NFL. Jimmy G has a team friendly deal. He’ll be making $26 million each of the next 3 years. On the bright side, moving on from Jimmy G is easy as his dead money hit reduced each of the next 3 years.
2020-save $22 million by moving on. Dead cap of $4 million
2021-save $24. Dead cap of $2
2022-save $25. Dead cap of $1
Basically he’s on three 1 year contracts. Easy for the team to move on.
Marines on the other hand, that dude is going to get PAAAIIIIDDDDD$$$$$$!$. Hopefully that doesn’t affect how they can build a team around him.
