$35M guaranteed wouldn't be out of step with what the market has established. However, Pioli has shown an ability to get team-friendly deals done. |

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. |

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.

Exactly. If he's stuck on those figures it's because he wants out of town. Plain and simple. A 5-6 year deal worth 11-12 a year with half of it guaranteed should be pretty easy to get done if he has any interest in playing here.

Why do we care about the number of years and total dollars when they're immaterial?
The only thing that matters is guaranteed dollars, and what you've suggested sounds fine. |

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.
