I don't think he'll be on the team. His $37m 2025 salary becomes guaranteed if he is.

If Russ stinks enough to be benched, he's getting cut and the Broncos are just going to take a brutal dead cap hit next year.
I don't know. They're already over the cap as-is for 2024. To make that move work I think they would really have to tear that roster down to the bare walls.

Realistically, that's exactly what they should do but it's not likely. They would just be telling fans to not show up for an entire year and I don't know if that ownership group would be willing to swallow their pride for that to happen.

Their cap is pretty fixable especially when the inevitable increase hits. That defensive line spending though goddamn and McGlinchey of all people. Could've sworn that guy was a turnstile in SF.

He was and still is a turnstile. :laugh:

Have to really give credit to Pete Carrol. Did a hell of a job squeezing every last bit of usefulness out of Russel and still managed to dump him off for an absurd return.

Yeah if Paton is there next year he must have photos of Elway and the Walmart boys on Epstein Island or something. Dude got multiple cracks at potential hall of fame QBs and a potential HoF coach. And the outcome was… this

Also just for maximum chaos his name is pronounced the same as Payton and Peyton. Not the WW2 general.

Welcome to Moonside.

Wecomel to Soonmide.

Moonwel ot cosidme.
McGlinchey was more like a league-average RT than a 'turnstile' on the Niners, but he was definitely stronger in run blocking than pass protection and he's not a good fit for the Broncos because Russ holds onto the ball forever. I don't think he's a terrible player like a lot of Niners fans do, but the team had to get cheaper somewhere on the roster to make up for all the guys they have to pay and he was definitely the odd man out, especially after the offer he got from Denver.

Apparently according to OTC, if the Broncos designate Russ as a post-June 1 cut in 2024, he "just" has a $35,400,000 dead cap hit in 2024 and then would have a pretty hefty hit the next year too of course but it would make it less suicidal to do it. Once they cut Tim Patrick and either extend or re-negotiate like two other guys they'll be under the cap and we can enjoy watching Jarrett Stidham earn his 7m contract.

At that point they'll probably be able to have Bryce for a fifth. He will turn into a hall of famer overnight and win 3 rings as a bronco. I will be happy after getting a lobotomy in the part of my brain that knows anything about organized sports.

It’s a Sean Payton team now, they’ll just renegotiate his contract to lower the 2025 cap hit in exchange for paying him 10 million a year until 2035.

It would be really hilarious to me if they set it up so that Russ got paid that $10 million on July 1st.

It also helped that Stafford came in with Cooper Kupp, pre-ACL Odell Beckham, Robert Woods and the defense was also very good.

The Broncos got.... Well reception perception always liked Cortland Sutton

No he was not. Also, pretty sure a couple of those ints come down to the late rear end play calls that Smith was loving up on.

Douglas should be fired already, but I think Saleh has enough potential to keep around next year (barring a 2-9 level meltdown)
