Is MB having zoom meetings with Tobin and Lou replaying all of Genos great seasons (like 4 to 7 yrs ago?) and saying dont let him leave!  he can regain his elite playing level after ACL tears, shoulder issues ....yea right. Ar best he is a 3rd down rotational DT now. AT BEST. CLEAR THE CAP SPACE AND BRING IN SOME FRESH TALENT FOR GODSAKE! THIS SHIT JUST PISSES ME OFF ABOUT THIS TEAM.

Geno gets only a 100K roster bonus, so they can still trade or cut him after the draft. If they cut him designated June 1, then they can spread the cap dead money over 2 years versus all in 2021. Important as we and all teams will have more cap money in 2022.

Also, if they wait until after the draft, a team may miss out on their DT so acquire Geno for a 5th or 7th round pick.
