It also depends on position. Only 10 ILBs in the league make more than $8 million a year.
Finally, there are plenty of free agents that sign for less than $8 million per year. We don't have to sign the top player at any position, all we need are a couple of solid starters.
Looking at the Jags, they signed multiple players at $8+ mill a year average to get them where they are.
Church, Campbell, and Bouye all $8+ mill.
I totally get that certain positions are cheaper than others to acquire good talent, ILB is one of them as you point out.
What 3 players would you look to acquire in FA if you were on a budget?
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. Ended 9-8 but barely missed playoffs
Changes needed to do better in Sept/Oct moving forward.
