Actual talent. No one on this team deserves to get paid. Except maybe wright and jenkins and of course dj
Hoarding? He spent a large chunk this off-season. The guys he got just suck (for the most part). He has no eye for talent.
He’s like Michael from the office. He gets a bonus if he doesn’t spend anything.
Honestly I think a lot of it is because the McCaskeys don’t want to spend anything. Especially now that they’re trying to get a new stadium and will likely be forced to cough up something for it.
Or he believes that he can get free agents to sign by massively overpaying them.
He’s trying to sign long term players, and wants to be capable of doing that if they’re available. Unfortunately, FA last year wasn’t great and mediocre players always want the bank. I respect his patience to not sign “meh” players to big deals, but as a fan it’s hard to sit and see all that space and not see a lot of splashes as a result. I just hope he’s not being too stingy or picky. If guys feel he is, it could hurt players from wanting to stay and come to Chicago. Based on his signings in fa last year, I think he’s on the right track, but we’ve waited a long time for a winning product, and waiting longer is not something anyone wants to do.
I don’t understand why we just didn’t pay Roquan
This Jaylon Johnson talk has gotten crazy. Folks are acting like he is the next Deon Sanders or Champ Bailey. My man has missed 1/3 of his games iin 2022, 25% of his games this season. He balled out against LV, but has only been above average otherwise. He allowed a TD in the Chargers game.
I’m not saying I want him to go to another team, or even be traded, but folks are acting like we should issue a blank check in $ and years to a guy who is an above average CB, but not the best.

For a worse version of any decent player on this roster when the team fails to re-sign any of them
