ahh much less for dlaw seriously AD is arguably the best Defensive guy in the league..Dlaw might be top10 but this wont really effect his contract..im guess hell get 17 a year or somewhere around that

It’s a good week to be named Aaron in the NFL.

 

[TheDuke]

Good week to put a decent avatar up

I can’t believe we missed out on this beautiful man by two picks.

I could have cried Doc. I mean, I literally wanted that guy more then I've wanted a drafted player in years. Maybe ever.

BTW, I like your Avatar.

If the cap goes up by crazy numbers the next few years like people predict it will, Rams will have been geniuses to get these guys locked up for so many years before contracts balloon out of control.

If it doesn’t, then they’ll flame out faster than the Broncos when they went on a spending spree in 2012-14. That lasted about 3 years before they started making cost cutting moves.

I thought the Suh deal and backfire would of cooled teams in not giving non QB's over 20mil. Nope.

D-Law asking price may of gone up, but he isn't worth near what AD is worth.

We got a pretty decent consolation prize....

..but if GM Jerry had his way, we would have taken

It means the same as it does with all professional athletes contracts. Lawrence's contract will be dedicated by the demand for his services. Contractual terms may be the same as Donald's, higher than Donald's, or lower than Donald's. Economics drive contracts far more than finance and/or perceived merited performance.

Because... they’re giving it back to the players instead of the owners just pocketing it?

Please we would be insane to pay Lawrence anywhere close to that amount. He is not anywhere near the talent that Aaron Donald is.

 

[Jstopper]

I'm not crying too bad. We have our own 4 time allpro, 4 time probowl best guard in the league

Was this do to winning one more meaningless game to go 8-8.

This, will have no affect whatsoever.

Money money!

 

[Praxit]

..I love these. Set up for failure..lol

It's like they are playing with monopoly money and we are penny pinching to go to goodwill.
