He deserves more than both, because he's a comparable player, who is younger, and is signing after the cap rises with the cap expected to significantly rise again over the life of his contract.But aren't some doing just that? He's not worth Rodgers or Wilson money is what some are positioning.
The most humorous part of this is not one poster here knows the overall effect on the cap of signing him. They hand wring that the team can't build around him, is that really an issue? They shop off off the rack for FA players, they're not players in the early going.
This is the biggest bunch of nothing that has dominated this forum, it isn't about the money. Either posters feel he can get the job done or he can't, who in the hell cares what they pay him?
I don't see any other options at this time so either do the 4 year deal, which is standard now, or back off and let him play on the tag and try again next off season.
The overall effect on the cap doesn't matter. It really doesn't.
If it isn't about the money, then why shouldn't they just give him $50m a year? It is absolutely about the money.
