@MrSlippery519@esidery@AdamSchefter Again, spec, but reasonable based on the way they do contracts. And that’s hardly holding him hostage. It’s simply not giving him what he wants. And proving to be not what the LEAGUE would give him either. 🤷🏻♂️
@MrSlippery519@esidery@AdamSchefter Right, but no details on signing bonus, which is up-front, guaranteed money.
Total (but reasonable) speculation based on past deals: $95mil total, ($31.6m AAV)
$30mil bonus (fully guaranteed)
Yr1 salary: $21mil (fully guar)
Yr 2 sal: $22mil (no guar)
Yr 2 sal: $22mil (no guar)
@MrSlippery519@esidery@AdamSchefter As far as I’ve seen, no structures were reported. Yes, they don’t typically “guarantee” future years, but usually first year, plus signing bonus is higher than AAV, so sure, maybe only $45-$50mil was “guaranteed” but that’s still far from holding hostage.
He misread is value.

@glennbeck “Not the Nazi” is kind of a big one, Glenn. Isn’t that what Your Daddy was fighting for?
I mean, there’s a bigger message, but even if not, I think “not the Nazi” should win the day.
But go ahead, and vote for “the Nazi” I gues. 🤷🏻♂️
