Parsons could be the first to crack $150M ( more than Dak's current deal )

He would be worth every penny. Throw in a DPOY and he pretty much gets a blank check from Jerry.

How is Aaron Donald not on that list?

 

[Doomsday101]

Only question I have is when do you resign him? Before the start of next season or when he actually hit FA 2 years from now?

..of all those characters Von Miller has most success. 2 SB's to his name.

This is the total contract value, not per year payout.

Wow Bradley Chubb at a $110 million dollar contract value is a horrible value. I had no idea he was going to get paid like that.

Pretty sure we have to wait until AFTER next season........his 3rd year

That's a lot of pass rushers.
If you have to lose one or the other who would you chose to lose...Lamb or Diggs? Parsons contract comes up one year after those two guys so we might not be able to keep both of those guys and Parsons too.

You let Lamb walk if it comes to that. Diggs is evolving into one of the best at his position.

Lose Lamb. He's good but nothing special, more easily replaced than Diggs special abilities.

No reason why you cant keep all three

 

[cnuball21]

This is why you draft CBs / DEs early and often.

 

[rags747]

Micah is definitely on a 5 year $150mio deal pace. The years will probably be even longer.

short deal...

umm we have him for 5 years, he can even ask for deal until after 2023, so lets stop getting ahead of ourselves with Jerry having to pay out this time of scratch. we will have to pay Diggs first, maybe Lamb, Steele and others. way too soon to discuss this Parsons possible deals.

We can if Dak's contract is off the books.......but as of now, I'm sure most would take Diggs over Lamb.

BTW....something fans should keep in mind......one serious prerequisite of getting Stephen to make a serious long-term offer to his players is at least one Pro Bowl. This may sound a bit silly but check ( as I did a couple of years ago ). I'm point this out coz as of today Lamb has a ways to before he gets Stephen's attention about a long-term deal.

pS and since I brought it up Diggs will be first and Wards contract is concerning. that's insane wards a solid player but anyone else tired of CLE being way outside the markets, setting ridiculous new markets for a lot of positions. jeez
