As I understand this, it's a 10 year extension, making it a 12 year deal.

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.

I figured around 400 million. I said that on a previous page. Guy mvp super bowl mvp and super bowl winner. Not even 25 yet.

Dak better accept that 35 per that’s rumored. He can’t ask for what mahomes received. No way in hell.

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.

This is great news! Maybe Jerry and Dak can come to an agreement for an 8-10 year contract. Dak until 2030!

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.
The guarantee must be astronomical to make him accept this.

Could be more if/when Watson signs his long-term contract. raises the average higher.

EDIT: nevermind, one-year contract for an amount no less than the average of the top five salaries at the player's position as of a date in April of the current year in which the tag will apply, or 120 percent of the player's previous year's salary, whichever is greater.

doubt the average of the top 5 would be over 37M.

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.

lol but dak gets chunky soup commercials. This is an embarrassment for dak if mahomes end up doing a contract that is TEAM friendly.

Crazy of you to say that when you have no idea what the terms are lmao.

All we know so far is it blows every benchmark out of the water.

Dumb post #2 on this page of the thread for ya. You gonna go for #3?

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).

It's gotta be over $300M guaranteed and/or player options in the out years.

Playing for 4 years is over the average NFL career, 12 is an eternity. A lot can change.
