Biggest decision will be deciding to extend Kirk or let that 28.5 million void money hit and go with a rookie QB and have a ton of cap space in 2025.


Either way they're looking pretty good with where they're at. Guess the direction the franchise is headed is a bit clearer now, at least to most of us.

Kirk is the big question. He was open to a team discount in the spring. But what happens if he has an MVP-like season?

It's kind of obvious they aren't going to hitch the wagon to him long term.  He'll be 36 and have taken a beating for years.  They are looking for a qbotf one way or another.
