We have the cap space, if he’ll take a one year deal at that range with the understanding he’s the first tackle off the bench then you absolutely can pay a backup that much. We don’t have many if any starting spots that are glaring problems. Our roster issues will likely come from depth. We can afford another o lineman, WR, and possibly even CB at moderate salaries on one year deals to solidify our roster top to bottom and across the board.

At this stage I think that is Reiff’s best choice. He’s older and had some injuries recently. He already knows the team and system. Come back, make a decent salary. Sit on the bench for half the year and if we have an injury he can be right back where he was at the start of last season. He can be a 6th o line too. If no injuries, he makes decent money and has a shot at a ring.

I say the same thing about Spain too, except he’d be even cheaper. I think we only have room for one of them roster wise as I don’t see the team wanting to cut too many of the young cheaper options that they may still be holding out hope for. I’d love to see either back here cheap
