4 yrs 66M is what they said i believe

 

[Stl2La]

Hmm $16M a year? Need to see guaranteed numbers and frame work of deal but on surface seems like an overpay. As do most of our deals to be fair lol

Agree on the surface do not like this at all but need to see the breakdown.

how is this possible when they are 30 mil over the cap?

 

[rams1fan]

We payed him 14 mil last year. So 16 mil is not much more. Guarenteed money could make this a risk.

You do not have to be under until Wednesday......

Clearly, they are not actually so. A whole bunch of stuff has happened without announcement. Could be restructuring, cuts, trades ...

 

[AvengerRam]

Very surprised, but very happy. That’s a key piece that will allow us to prioritize other spots with our limited resources ($, draft picks).

Because nfl cap is incredibly easy to manipulate, especially now with the silly voidable years everyone is doing

 

[btfd16]

I am not too stoked on this. But I'll wait to see the details.

 

[Boston Ram]

Love the signing, seems a bit on the high side but need to see the cap impact.

Nobody really believes this is 4 years for 64m do they? There will be huge escalators. 400 sacks for a $3m bonus. Happens all the time. The headline numbers are for agents only.
