actually sounds like he gets a % of the salary cap so he doesn't have to worry about salaries going up without him.Apparently Mahomes is more interested in long-term security than seeing if he can cash in again in four years.
I have to believe this throws the Prescott negotiations for a massive loop. One side will take it one way and so on...
So Dak very likely will play 2020 on the tag.
I am not sure you know "facts" work.
No way Dak signs a 10 year deal...he won’t sign for 5!
The guarantee must be astronomical to make him accept this.At 10 years he could make 40 mil a year and it would be somewhat team friendly. Because you could spread that out and be under the usual big cap hit by year 4 or 5.
I bet it’s more than that.Likely 180 guaranteed.
Could be more if/when Watson signs his long-term contract. raises the average higher.Jerry and Stephen played themselves. No Dak won't get anywhere near the years or the money but, 35-37M per year is in play. Do they want to keep him, that's what they are paying. That franchise tag is 37M next year.
what it tells me is this.. Mahomes is committed to being a Chief for life. He know he's about sign something like that life changing not only for his immediate family for many more generations. He's not concerned about a few more million here or there cause he know that he will have more money than he will ever come close spending and that this contract will help the organization keep other players around him that will help the team be successful. He and his agent are smart enough to know that winning football can bring him more money outside what his salary pays him. wish dak and his agents would be smart enough to know this.
Crazy of you to say that when you have no idea what the terms are lmao.Awesome once in a generation player sets his team up for success with a very team friendly deal.
Average QB with a questionable talent ceiling forces team to rework player contracts because he’s unwilling to take twice what he’s worth.
Start at say $37 for the first year and escalate by say 3% per year, you get $424M over 10 years. I'd consider that a floor. (It wouldn't be structured that way but the total amount has to be at least that).
