[QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3687420, member: 9052"] I wonder if it's been mostly about affording him for this year?? We have soooo many halves and hookers on the books, but by the end of next year Reynolds, Paix and Smoothy will be off contract and potentially off the books (although I like Smoothy)... and to me Madden surely looks elsewhere... Bhunt's contract finishes at the same time as his... so what's his plan to get an extension if he's not playing? We currently have 10 halves and hookers in the Top 30 (excluding Hayze Perham)... so by the end of 2025 that will potentially be down to 7 or possibly 6 (if Madden finds a new home)... end of 2026 they're all off contract except Ezra. If all of Reynolds, Paix, Smoothy and Madden leave by the end of 2025, the remaining halves and hookers would be as per below. I think based on that the key to signing Bhunt is being able to move Madden on (full freight) and losing Paix's wages for 2026... those two combined would be on similar or more than Bhunt's $600k (unknown what is on the cap for 2026 with this career after retiring thing) and then Bukowski likely coming in at pretty low Top 30 wage to fill in the two Top 30 spots. By 2027 broncos would be hoping that Mozer and Bukowski are covering hooker... although I wouldn't mind Smoothy as depth as well... with Ezra and Coby covering halves as your starters. Halves: Ezra (2029) Bhunt (2026) Black (2026) Rogers (2026) Hookers: Mozer (2025, but hopefully re-signed soon) Bukowski (assume his contract upgrades to Top 30 by 2026) Billy (2026) [/QUOTE]
