Bosa will become the highest paid defensive player. Aaron Donald gets $31.7 million, so there's your starting point.
$35 million per year is pretty steep, especially when you're already got Deebo with a cap hit of $28 million next year, Trent Williams at $28 million, Arik Armstead at $25 million, CMC at $14 million, Fred Warner $24 million, and George Kittle $19.4 million in 2024, Charvarious Ward $17.9, and Javon Hargrave at $15.5. Even Brandon Aiyuk has a cap hit of $14 million in 2024.
I think the 49ers are already over the cap for 2024 without taking Bosa into account. Shades of the 2021 Rams?
