Inflation from 2013 will push Carr/Mack to make $40 million combined or more in 2018 or 2019.

Carr and Mack will probably make around $20-25 million in the first year of their new deals. |
Actually, that IS the way that McKenzie does contracts with his "pay-as-you-go". It will be really interesting to see if he manages to stick to that way of doing contracts with these really big contracts though. He might be forced to give a more traditional contract so the agent can brag about a huge signing bonus. Definitely going to be a challenge for him.
