That's bad business. I'd give up fair market value, maybe go over by 10%...but that's it. About 11/yr with half fully guaranteed. |

Those who didn't were the ones saying that we had/have enough money to sign both.

Bowe will be 28 this fall. So let's say he's signed to an 8 year, $140M deal. He's only going to see the first three, maybe four, years of that deal because he'll be an aging, descending player soon.
That's not bad business; that's called life in the NFL. And this is also how a lot of dipshits go broke. They somehow believe that the have $140M or whatever headline material the dollar amount is. No matter that anyone with common sense realizes the figure is never coming to fruition. |

You realize this happens on every single team, don't you? Everyone knows that the non-guaranteed money in nfl contracts is basically meaningless outside the first three/four years.

Need to know how the contract is structured. If year 6 7 and 8 are 20 million a year then sure,

When you see a contract figure of 120-140m, I'm thinking the guaranteed figure is 50-60m.
That's what most are thinking. That's why I said no way.

He's not going to get paid like Fitz or Megatron, but Bowe is a #1 WR, and he should get paid like one.
