Plus as a fan don't you think our FO needs a lesson on cap gymnastics? I mean people are throwing out KcC not keeping Hill but KC also pushes the cap in ways the Bengals refuse to do. I mean it may seem small but is that gonna be the difference between KCs dynasty and us not quite getting it done.
He's already locked up for 1 more year. You're adding 0 extra years and paying a guy $20m more for the same 4 year addition.
Cap gymnastics are to create MORE cap space, not to rationalize how to give a guy $20m more than the highest paid guy got over the same amount of years to give yourself LESS cap space. Trying to pretend 4yr/$160m is the "same" as 4yr/$140m is not cap gymnastics, it's reality gymnastics.
