http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d...act-with-lions
Johnson is scheduled to earn close to $130 million over the next eight seasons, including $113.5 million over the final seven years of the deal, league sources told NFL Network insider Jason La Canfora.

The contract includes $4.5 million in an existing roster bonus that's due on the final year of his rookie deal.


The deal also includes $53 million in guaranteed money, with Johnson's $1.25 million base salary in 2012 guaranteed, and $36 million due in signing and option bonuses. According to La Canfora, $11.5 million in future salary is guaranteed for injury only.

The contract makes Johnson -- who scorched the NFL with 96 catches for 1,681 yards and 16 touchdowns in 2011 -- the highest-paid wide receiver in league history, surpassing the eight-year, $120 million deal that Larry Fitzgerald signed with the Arizona Cardinals before last season.

That's stupid.
The OP isn't about 10 mill a year. 8 years/80 million might be much more palatable.

There is nothing to indicate he hasn't been fair in his contract negotiations concerning our players.
Agreed.

If he doesn't pay Bowe 10 million a year, though, he's a shitbag.

You have so much artificial hate for Pioli that you are removed from reality in every topic that has anything to do with him.

None of us know Bowes demands and if they are realistic or not.

Yeah but if he lets Bowe walk for nothing that's going to look bad. If a deal can't be reached this year tag Bowe again and hopefully get a draft pick for him.

He signed Brady Quinn to compete at quarterback this offseason.

He drafted a piece of shit Poe.

He brings it on himself.

Seems like that's rather unfair.

Pioli can feel free to get the **** outta here.
well, when you look at it that way...lol

All I'm saying is that I have no problem in paying Bowe. He might even be the best WR we've ever had. But he shouldn't get Fitzgerald money or Calvin Johnson money if thats what he is demanding. I'd be totally cool with giving him a $60-70 mill deal, but not any 100 mill deal, no way.

Exactly. The difference between what he wants and what the Chiefs want to pay him will be some stupid ass Kevin Curtis type signing each year.

People want to act like its a contract that will hamstring the organization for the next decade, when in reality the extra money for that "blank check" will annually only be the difference between journeyman scrub A, and young scrub B.

Good players hit the open market. It's part of football.

I'm sure the team has a reasonable offer on the table and I think they will get a deal done before the deadline.

If they don't, I think that's more Bowe than Pioli.

Jerry Jones admits Cowboys overpaid for cornerback Brandon Carr

The Cowboys needed secondary help, so they went out and signed Chiefs cornerback Brandon Carr to a lucrative $50.1 million deal, with roughly half that money guaranteed. Locking that much money up with one player will almost always lead to questions from Cowboys fans about whether the team overpaid.
But according to DallasCowboys.com writer Rob Phillips, Jerry Jones has already answered that question for fans, admitting that he overpaid for Carr,* before backtracking on his previous statement.
"We know we overpaid to get Carr," Jones said at the NFL meetings. "Not overpay -- we paid retail."

Whether you believe Jones or not, most would agree that the Cowboys locked up money in a position that they desperately need to fill. Cortland Finnegan, another Cowboys free agent target, cost the Rams $50 million ($27 million was guaranteed) -- so maybe the Cowboys did overpay for Carr after all.

So yeah...

For the record, based on the original post, him wanting Megatron money is pure speculation. There's a tweet that says Bowe wants "big" money, and an unrelated tweet that lists Megatrons numbers.

Is there any actual info that says Bowe is asking for a comparable contract?

I don't see them letting Bowe walk, especially with the cap floor coming into place next year.

They also have the cash cap to think about.

The only reason they would let Bowe walk is if his demands are unrealistic.

Technically yes although most would argue the one Calvin dropped was a bad call.
