Suter will never be scratched
I get it. Sign him, sell a bunch of jerseys, and then cut him in camp.
Yes if I am re-signing a QB on a 2nd contract I would negotiate an out by year 2 or at least by year 3.Both teams jumped the gun giving their guy contract extensions after year 3. Ended up having to eat a massive dead cap hit.
With all of the rumblings this off-season between Wilson, Watson, Rodgers, wonder if teams going forward re-think how they structure QB contracts. Do they shift Signing Bonus moving into Guaranteed base salary so that they don't end up with massive dead cap hits if the QB wants out 2 years into a 5 year extension? Does that make them harder to move and you get back less since the other team would have to take on a higher cap hit?
Usually, when you hear the term "Out", that means that the player no longer has much guaranteed money left on their contract. Signing bonuses are prorated over the term of the contract. Giving a guy $50 mill in signing bonus over 5 year term means that you are only eating $10 mill per year of that SB in a cap charge. If you move that player after 2 seasons on that contract, you have to eat $30 mill of that SB in dead money.Yes if I am re-signing a QB on a 2nd contract I would negotiate an out by year 2 or at least by year 3.
Today, the Cowboys made it official that they're not picking up LVE's 5th year option. This season becomes a prove it year for him.Troy - you may remember me as the guy that really ( and I do mean REALLY !!!!! ) hopes that you are wrong about LVE. But the style he plays does not usually lead to a long injury-free career.
The Browns are taking a chance on a guy here. One heck of a resume.
Courtney Hall, team captain of the Chargers team who went to the super bowl in 1994, passed on yesterday. The curse of that team lives on, like half of that team is dead.
Boxing fans can never slander pro wrestling again.

I remember the ATV accident but had no idea he also went to prison.
