Hypothetically if he scored 5 touchdowns guaranteed every game you would just need to have 10 guys on 4-7 round rookie contracts on offense and field a defense that gives up less than 35 a game. And the QB takes the rest of the cap

ONE MILLION DOLLARS!
Does the team need worthwhile WRs at all in order to sustain this pace, or is he converting with UDFAs out there? Does he need an OL at all? If you're putting up 35+ points every single game, how you look at team building changes.
You can do Vet min o line and WRs and RBs. So yeah half the cap atleast. Honestly whatever he asks for.
You give him a majority of the salary cap and hire basically me to block for him. Ill take $200k a year to get run over each game.
Whatever Ohtani ends up signing for.
2/3rds of the salary cap. You get 600 yards of offense and 5 touchdowns every game. You can dump 20ish % into the defense and use the rest on league minimum offense.
It would be an absolute bidding war in the NFL for her services, but I’d guess she’d make 2/3rds of the cap.
She's muh queen
Probably like 50% more than Mahomes is currently? Really though, Football's too much of a team game for it to be any more than that. The Perfect Quarterback can get the ball in the perfect place for someone to catch but they still need that person to catch it, and the worse the receivers are the less separation they're gonna have and the harder those catches are gonna be.
In reality the perfect quarterback goes 20/20 for 250 yards and 3 touchdowns each game and rushes for an extra 100 yards and 2 more touchdowns. A Lamar Jackson+ who never gets hurt? That's fucking nice. Still though, not getting paid more than what I said above just because the game falls apart if your supporting cast can't do the basics.
Tree fiddy
He’s gonna get kidnapped by the CIA by week 6
total salary cap less the minimum salary for the rest of the roster
If the QB never misses a pass couldn’t the team just run a Hail Mary every time and score a TD?
Is it guaranteed that this happens every single game, no matter what?
Not enough
1 gazillions
Never misses a pass as in it’s always accurate? Or his receivers never drop a pass? If it’s the latter you could just hail merry it every play. Everyone else on the team could be a minimum contract and he would get everything else
Also this math isn't mathing. They travel the entire length of the field 6 times and only get 5 TDs out of it? Unless the coach is absolutely braindead and runs the ball for no reason, or the offense starts on their 1 every drive, there'd be a minimum of like 7 or 8 passing TDs inside of 600 yards. When the Dolphins got 10 TDs against us, that was on 726 yards
Rest of the offense could theoretically commit so many penalties that this is possible
NFL would nerf that mofo so quick
Looks at Derek Carr's contract...
You give this man a blank check and the rest of the money you spend on defense
Nothing. It’s a game. No reason for the salaries they get.
Perfect QB makes league minimum
Brady made $18M in his last year
A qb that wants to win championships needs to take a pay cut
The difference of whatever it takes to hold the other team below 5 touchdowns + the minimum to fill out the offense.
Next year’s cap is $240m, highest QB cap hit next year is Watson at $64m. So I’ll just give my guy a generous $80m per year, fill the offense out with schlubby vets since I’m guaranteed offensive performance, and spend well over half the cap and all my draft picks on a crazy dominant defense.
100 mil per season.
It means it raises the price for every other qb in the league.
Invest like 70 Mil on defense.
Spend like 50 mill on all other positions on offense. Invest mostly on run blocking oline so you can drain clock well.
Get the cheapest wr and te possible.
Trade said wr after every season for more draft pick considering they will all have crazy stats.
Invest draft into oline and defense.
Sign udfa recievers.
Repeat.
League minimum, because similar talent is available at the end of the draft.
