I would give Houston a $15.5 million avg yearly salary and it give him $20 million gauranteed.
I like how Houston set up Watt's contract and I hope we copy it.
Watt is making $21.96 million this year, BUT his remaining years are as follows:
'16-$12.5 million
'17-$12.5 million
'18-$13 million
'19-$13 million
'20-$15 million
'21-$17.5 million
4 years after his large cap number for the 2015 season he's making less than Clay Mathhews avg.
It's worth paying this guy one year of franchise QB money when you look at those circumstances.

Yep. I would easily give him that and not think twice about it.
