Rams and Bucs don't have 45 million dollar QB's on the payroll which is what we're going to have at minimum with Burrow. There's a reason KC dumped Tyreek, they couldn't pay him. Already have big money locked into Mahomes/Kelce/Chris Jones. We're going to have that money locked into Burrow and Chase + pick one more.
Edit: Oh and the cap. The cap going up does nothing for the other guys. It just means you're paying your top end talent more. That's why each year we keep seeing new records of AAV every year. Top end guys aren't taking the same amount of money when the cap rises. They get even more.
Rams had $44.7m of cap space going towards Stafford and Goff in 2021. Stafford averages $40m/yr on his deal, they just pushed a lot of it back, $49.5m cap hit in 2023.
