So asking your QB to take more than 4 years isn't unreasonable? Interesting.

The difference is the latter years of the contract are reportedly tied to a percentage of the cap, so instead of testing the market again after 4 years like Dak wants to do, his yearly average will just go up with the cap. So, essentially, he will stay up to market value without having to resign a contract.

Progressive thinking. Who knew there WAS such a thing?

Did people think his contract wouldn't be future proofed with accelerator clauses? His agent ain't a dummy.

Yes. Can we not do something like that?

You would think so.

Apparently no ties to percentage of cap after all.

Holy fuck, that's $45 million a year. That blew up the market. The guarantees are a bit low for the overall value of the contract, but not terrible.

I think I said 45 months ago. Now just do the Dak deal.

 

[ravidubey]

Never mind. That was what his age will be when he reaches the end of 2 years. I’m an idiot.

He will likely make a whole lot more than 36 per year.

5 years, 41m per year average was what I had posted for Dak-- all based on what a triple use of the Franchise Tag would net.

Mahomes deserves to set the top of the market, so I'm OK with him receiving 45 per.

'Here to stay:' Chiefs agree to 10-year, $503 million extension with star QB Patrick Mahomes

Mahomes will become the highest-paid player in NFL history, and he will remain with the club for at least 12 years.

It’s even more than that. $503M with $477M in guarantees. Every time he takes the field, the audio should blast Ted DiBiase’s old WWF entrance music.

 

[NoDak]

That contract is ridiculous.

I thought $140 mill guaranteed was way low. Over $50 mill a year and the first ever half a billion dollar contract. Good lord.

The owners seem to suicidal as far as the franchises go. This mentality will kill a franchise.

What can the Chiefs do, though? They have no negotiating power. Are they going to let their best QB in the league super bowl champion QB walk away? Of course not. The QB at that point can basically name his price.

 

[ravidubey]

Well, now "market value" has been set :)
