[Jipper]

that's about as minimum as you can get - perfectly fine for a role player as long as that's exactly how they use him

We should give him a bonus for every 2 yard gain he gets us!

Are we the only team in NFL history to be paying a guy for two different contracts while he's on the roster?

Vet minimum for zeke would have been $1.255 million.

So in reality he isn't getting much over vet minimum ($375K - $750K) and has active roster bonuses and incentives for "scrimmage yards", touchdowns, playing time if they make the playoffs.

Somewhere deep inside, Stephen knows that Zeke won't see the $1M in incentives. Playoffs?! Playoffs?!

No! The eagles have basically been doing it with Cox, Kelce, Graham, Johnson etc for years with numerous pro rated contracts!

This is how every contract for every position should be structured.

You can't say enough how awesome this is.

Really shows the brilliance of our two owners/GMs.

Well it'll be tough to convince a DT to agree to a touchdown incentive in their deal.

 

[Hawkeye19]

We were already paying him 6 mil in dead money. Adding a modest deal on top is all about getting something for that dead money investment

Yall love to hate and complain lmao

This is nitpicking of course. But isn't he a 6 million dead cap? Then add the 3 he's being paid this year. I don't expect much, but I wish him the best.

That's about all this board is anymore. Anyone who speaks positivity is immediately piled on by all the so-called "fans" telling them how horrible everything is.

Not paying. He was already paid the dead caponey, it's not new money, it's dead money, hence the name dead cap.

We should get you a bonus every time you ask for our thoughts....

Yup...thanks for being a voice of reason.
