You can hear the screams from New York, Philly and Washington.
This is like a few years too late. They had their window the last 3 years where they were underpaying key positions. Dallas is going to be pretty bad the next few years too.
They have no QB unless they're willing to overpay Dak.
They have no receivers unless they're willing to overpay Cooper.
Zeke with his play style is only going to get worse.
They already overpaid a bunch of players that are under performing.
The NFL isn't the NBA there's a hard cap. That's why draft picks are so valuable to NFL teams, its not so much about the talent is about the talent per dollar.
Plus they were barely decent this year. They only beat 1 playoff team all year and 6 of their 8 wins came from the worst 5 teams in the league.
I would reserve judgement on that perceived "doomed" take
They will have a QB, once they pay or tag Dak. Who was having a statistically good season compared to his previous three. "Overpaying" is moot once you consider Goff and Wentz got paid but have not set their respective franchises back as well as the anual Cap increase.
Cooper is a solid receiver with questionable road game stats, but is not a bum and again "Overpaying" isn't a nail in the coffin, as suggested.
Zekes got a long contract that he honestly probably won't fully complete, but is young and still a top back. FYI I totally follow the school of thought about NOT paying RBs(also Pollard looks to be the real deal and compliment to Zekes excessive contact style)
Only paid players they've done is Lawrence, Collins and Jaylon Smith. They have over 10 free agents possibly leaving BECAUSE they don't pay out so easily. Only Smith, would I agree isn't paying up to his contract.
Lastly, they definitely were outplayed by formidable teams BUT they had such a outstanding point differential total that history shows SHOULD have led to different results.
I can totally see validity in your points but I also see how easily the turn around could be as well
