In my opinion, as long as Joe is still great, we need to become an organization whose only priority is to get to the Super Bowl every year. We must improve the X's and O's but are not going anywhere overspending on the wrong Jimmy and Joes.
Tell me why we dont cut/trade any of these players"
Player, Salary Rank, Cap Hit, Savings if we cut
Waynes, #1, $15.8M, $10.8M (no explanation needed)
Boyd, #3, $8.2M, $7.3M (2022), $8.9 (2023). Averages 4 receptions per game - 3rd to 5th option, an average and fast slot will be fine if we have a great oline
Hopkins, # 7, $7.1M ,$5.9M. Ranked 35th out of 39 Centers on the season. When was the last time we had a solid C to captain the line? Great QBs usually have very good Centers.
These 3 players add an additional $24M in cap space this off season in addition to the current $57M.
We have already moved on from Waynes.
Slot and TE are not worth high dollars in our offense with Joe, Tee, Chase and oline requiring top dollar.
A quality C could have a huge impact on play calls leadership.

My post from February 2022, one of many pushing for us to trade Boyd at his highest value...
