Gallup - Out after next year (14 million) to cancel 27 million of last two years for a cap hit of 6. Smaller money values. I would guess they would exercise this as well unless he lights it up. You could easily draft in two years and save the 21 million and get similar production on a rookie contract.
Dak - He is staying next year. You cut him next year, his cap hit is 89 million. He has an out after next year for a cap hit of 40 million instead of 52 million normally. Either is a lot to swallow. His contract will need to be restructured after this year if they are keeping him or find a suitor in a trade. Do they want 40 million dead cap if they cut him or ride him out for these remaining two years?
I love that you are looking at this with the logic that Jerry would never have in a MILLION years. All of them will be on the team through 2024 probably 2025 mark my words. These are all Jerry's favorites, which of course means over paid and underperforming, but Jerry signs the checks so they are going nowhere
