UPDATE - Aaron Donald Contract Extension - SIGNED

[Ramer]

until next year

 

[Kupped]

Wow.

 

[hotanez]

Glad it's all over and done with. He deserves every penny

 

[ArkyRamsFan]

So how does this affect our cap? Can we still afford OBJ later in the year? Are there any decent edge rushers we might have a chance at?
Will Stan Kroenke be seen selling pencils on the corner of Sunset and Vine now? ( Ok just kidding on the last question.....for the most part)

Only 10 pages in this thread. I am really disappointed in you guys. I was hoping for at least 500.

until next year

Ramer,
Did you have to ruin the moment? (Prolly right anyway.....)

We'll see. Donald wad scheduled to count $26.75M against the Rams' 2022 cap; and another $23.5M in 2023.

95 Million thru 2024. KuhCHING!!

 

[Merlin]

Thankful this is over with. Now get Kupp finished up.

He's worth every penny. And you know he won't take his money and stop giving it his all. It's not in his DNA. If anything, his least mega deal (and it was mega at the time!) only motivated him to enter into a new stratosphere.

You will never replace Aaron Donald. But the Rams should start turning their minds to life after him. I suspect he does not play past this deal.

Yeah that's the sad part is this definitely points towards Donald walking away after the contract is up. Let's relish it now but I'll be sad as fuck when it happens.

I'm sure he was given a huge bonus or something that frees up a decent amount of money.

Whatever happened to paying players in hookers and coke?....wish he had that mindset like LT lol......I'm obviously kidding

 

[simonblaze]

Glad it's done, he deserves it. Lets run it back...

 

[OldSchool]

But I wanted first round picks!!!

Ok kidding and glad he's not traded because you don't trade guys like him and he needs to keep playing! Also reading it wasn't an extension just added money to him.

Donald 100% deserves every damn dollar of this. The trade talk with him was ridiculous. You don't trade the Greatest Defensive Lineman, and maybe Defense player of all time when he's still performing elite and the best in the NFL. You don't trade them at all. You keep them, and have them retire with you.

It's moves like this that will show future Free Agents and such that we'll always take care of you as a player.

 

[Tano]

I'll be sad as fuck when it happens.

This times 1000

 

[Turducken]

There are two void years at the end of the contract. Numbers are not released yet, but I'm guessing that it is how most of the $40m raise will be paid.

 

[BatteringRambo]

On a side note happy for AD99 a true player on and off the field. Get richer!!

 

[Jacobarch]

Wait he's not retiring? Lol
