There would be teams that like, you know what, we're just screwed this year.

I'm going to deal with it.

And next year we'll be back.

But look at the Broncos.

They got to the brink of the Super Bowl.

in the year that they were taking the bulk, I believe.

It's either the bulk or close to the bulk.

It's either 30 or 50 million that they had in dead money for Russell Wilson.

So you can find ways around it.

That's what these folks get paid to do.

And yeah, they like to say, oh no, oh no, how are we ever going to do it?

And then they do it.

And it's really not as complicated as they would have us think.

And maybe they have us think that so we're all impressed when they finally figure it out.

Well, if Drake May really was hurt, there's your explanation.

And this is one of the big problems with the NFL's current injury policy.

It is so basic and bare-bones.

You can comply with it and create the impression a guy's fine when he's not fine.

Drake May said himself last Monday night, I'm not trying to lie to you guys when I say I feel great.

And in reality, no, he wasn't trying.
