Not bad for a UDFA who looked totally lost out of the gate.

Not just lost but Ball bad at LT.

Wasn't it he and Brandon Knight that year?

Seemed like two wgaf whiffs, but it would interesting to hear what changed it for him.

 

[Simpleton]

A 17-18 AAV is too much for him but if I had to guess they're using 2023 to spread some of the money out, so when you consider that it's really 6 years and around $90-95 million, which is mostly reasonable.

Yeah and I actually thought Steele was the worse of the two guys. I have no idea how the guy improved so much but it's impressive.

If you're going to slightly overpay someone, better that it's a guy with a great work ethic and professionalism. Especially when Zack Martin loves him.

and will teach you negative nellies a lesson on possibly waiting before you tag someone another Taco after a preseason snap...

Hopefully Steele isn't a turnstile this season after that injury. Guess the team is confident anyway.

Jerry is notorious for rewarding players coming off of very bad injuries (Dak, Gallup, Pollard, Steele, etc.)

I know they get these from the agents and that's not their concern, but when people like Schefter report these new deals I wish they'd tell us the cap hits the first few years.

I think it depends on the specifics though, which I'm guessing the reporters don't have. The agents probably don't want to give out the specifics because it's a lot less impressive than the total dollars.

I feel harassed.

Just be glad he didn’t threaten you from the tall grass.

amazing, a top ten contract for a UDFA.

Wentz sucked and so did Lance.

Neither were or are elite NFL players.

I’m mad this stunt keeps us from spending real capital on a QB.

You really need a stress reliever @ravidubey

The most impressive thing for me was how quickly he improved. It was night and day improvement between years 1 and 2.

Thats one of the things you can expect from Tech products. They are either the GOAT or raise their game to HoF worthy the second year. Guess we should have stuck with Garibay.

IT was. Honestly, I don't recall a player, at least not on the O lone ever making that kid of jump. I wish we could get half that return on higher drafted players. IM looking at you Bossman...

Let’s not forget Jaylon Smith. It’s a major gamble each time he does it, and it feels like he’s making the decision based on his gut or hopes rather than actual medical facts, X-rays notwithstanding
