This situation is nothing like the late 90s Jags though. That was still the adolescence of the salary cap. Teams didn't know how to maneuver it. They didn't have insanely talented capologists. The cap didn't rise nearly as much every year. Teams just don't get into cap hell like that anymore.

Sure, we might have to cut Malik or Dareus after a couple of years. We might not be able to resign Fowler (the horror.../s). We can still keep the majority of the team together and afford Cousins, and Arob. Cousins minus one of Malik or Dareus and Fowler >>>> team with Bortles and those guys. Maaaaybe we get the best of both worlds hitting on a drafted QB, but that's very risky obviously.
