Quote:None of them have anywhere near the money we do, on top of no state income tax. We are also seen as a team on the rise with a good owner, GM, HC, and young franchise QB with stability. Irvin to us seems like a done deal. If Jackson's number 1 priority is the money the Raider's can't compete with us because of the crazy state taxes in Cali. Vernon can stay in Florida by coming here. I think we're in a pretty good position to land all three.

You need to realize that just because we have more money doesn't mean that is the end all. if a team has 40M and we have 80M, that doesn't mean we trump the team with 40M on every FA. Not like we're going to offer some ridiculous 20M+ deal for the first year on these players to make a team bow out.

 

I honestly don't get this argument. "Well, we have more money than any team, so that means we can sign everyone we want. No one else has a chance."

That'd be true if most of the league didn't have a [BLEEP] ton of cap too.
