Should Noah Gray be on a $6 million per year contract right now?

The Program
5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

No.

The Program
5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

No.

5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

I mean, I think the Noah Gray signing was insurance against Travis Kelsey retiring, which means it's the player's decision on whether to retire, but it's your decision as to whether or not you're going to keep – because, like, the domino effect of the Travis Kelsey retirement is, one –

The Program
5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

Well, we kind of think he's coming back so we don't go draft the tight end high.

The Program
5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

They don't ever think in terms of tight end because we have Travis Kelsey, and we're trying to win right now, so we're drafting for need.

The Program
5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

But then he might go, so we have to re-sign Noah Gray to $6 million a year, and he averages 200 or 300 yards receiving a year, but we're going to give him $6 million.

The Program
5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

You're getting replacement-level tight end play from Noah Gray, but you're paying $6 million for it.

The Program
5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

Because we don't know on a year-to-year basis whether or not Travis Kelsey is going to play.

The Program
5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

You know what would have been wise?

The Program
5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

Move on.

The Program
5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

Yeah.

The Program
5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

Move on.

The Program
5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

Because then when he does decide to play, he's a $14 million cap hit.

The Program
5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

I want to look at the tight end spending is, oh, I want the position ranks.

The Program
5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

Hang on a second here.

The Program
5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

I'll figure it out.

The Program
5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

15th at tight end?

The Program
5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

So the average is.

The Program
5-22-26 HOUR 3 - TWO-MINUTE DRILL

But the actual cap is not as bad.
