But this makes me want to roll my sleeves up and make fists.
So I realize this comes across as bashing, but the reasoning is more subtle. If we operate under the cap, then my goal is to land two quality starters with the primary focus being defense and secondary play making/creation. THJ does not address either of those issues, and his salary will be such that we can not go after any of the top tier talent available with the remaining cap. I like him as a player and a Maverick, but the issue is about situational cap fit and need.
If it helps, I did just suggest an over the cap scenario (that may or may not be realistic) that includes him.
