ORIGINAL: Phil Riewer I don't like doing this but Zone Coverage has a way to create enough space by adding Void years to Kirk...The Pack is doing it too The Packers have created $10.892M in 2022 cap space by restructuring the contract of NT Kenny Clark, per source. Green Bay converted $13.615 of Clark’s 2022 compensation into a signing bonus and added two void years to his deal. Chipping away to create some space... The Packers have the worst cap situation in the league - hallelujah - second only to the Saints. Why would we copy them? Without Rogers they'd stink. Not copying the packers or anyone just posting what Zone Coverage discussed: https://zonecoverage.com/2022/minnesota-vikings-news/how-the-vikings-can-fix-the-cap-while-keeping-kirk-cousins/ Their plan would have the Vikings with $33 million in dead cap in 2025 just from Hunter and Cousins and another $6 million in dead cap in 2026. Why are so many Vikings fans terrified of having a 6-11 season in 2022 that they'd be willing to sell out an entire upcoming season (2025) so we MIGHT go 9-8 and scratch a playoff berth in 2022? Is it because so few want to admit that Spielman and Zimmer were horseshit at their jobs? Is is some desperate need to show Kirk is "top ten"? I just don't get it. New GM and new coach should be looking to clear the deck and start fresh. There's a reason the jobs they got were available and it was because it was a bad team. Because you either go all in or not...you have owners that are willing to go all in. Some are making it all about Kirk; it isn't. You don't have to wreck the cap situation just ride it out for 22. The Offense is ready to go. How many years does Cook, Thielen, Smith, Kendricks, Hunter have? Those are the reasons. Cincy caught lightning in a bottle. It's possible with new coaching that we could make a run. As far as be worried about dead cap $$$ in 2025, let's worry about that in 2025. Cap might be 300M by then. That can be said for every team, every year. And of course fans from the teams with new coaches can add that element in to justify.... well, damn near anything.
