Love the Zeke but dang thats a lot of Cap for a HB!!! Again we are paying cause we have a inept passing game and need Zeke......oh well GL Zeke make us proud and score us a lot of points!

Are you even able to make a post that doesn’t slight the QB of your suppose to be favorite team ?

We are paying this because Steven and jerry aren’t the sharpest this has been proven with regularity

I'd say that there are large salaries on that back end, when he's proven it and the cap is significantly higher, or years on the deal he'll never see.
There is a limit in his big they can be with the 30% rule

Back loading with non guaranteed money means the player never sees that money unless they are still performing at a high level.

You can backload with guarantees as well, ones thatll never be paid. Like Gurley and Wentz, teams could have cut them after year 1-2 and dolled out less than half the guarantees. 'fully guaranteed at signing' will be an interesting one, if its reported.

Yep...

Looking like 40 Million. Not a win or loss for either side on that one.

That's what I thought the team should be shooting for based on Gurley getting $45 million guaranteed. If Zeke's is $40 million, then it's a good deal. We shouldn't be paying attention to the overall number because most of that will never be seen.

You don't dress like this? I was referring to the way overhyped Pollard and the saracastic trade him thread.
