Reported at the top of Sportscenter. It's a 6 year deal, $58 million. $25.7 of it is guaranteed.

Who is going to start for them? Do they still have that back-up that torched us a few years ago?

[Coach]

That's alot of dough.

Yes, Billy Volek. He did pretty well as a whole when he got to play.

I don't know the particulars of the deal, but that $58 million number is more than #1 pick Mario Williams got.

[Thig Lyfe]

Volek will start until the Titans are out of contention, or maybe a bit earlier if the rest of the team looks okay but QB production is lacking.

[penguinz]

Way too much money for him.

[Basileus777]

He's going to make more money than Mario Williams. Not good news for the Saints in regards to Reggie Bush.

It all depends on how much of Young's $ is gauranteed.

The Tennessean says that 25.7 million dollars of the contract is guaranteed:

Yeah I know. That fell in line. Young got $25.7 guaranteed. Williams got $26.5 guaranteed. That is a lot of money for a rookie.

There is the number that matters. IIRC that is a mil or so less than Williams, yes?

They'd find me dead in a ditch a week after I got that signing bonus check. I'd be naked, smelling like pussy and whiskey, and bleeding out of both ears with a smile on my face a mile wide.

Reggie Bush is gonna bust a nut if he doesn't get some $$$$$$.

And I'd be laughing the whole time. :evil:

Reggie is in a tough spot since the Saints do have a damn good starting RB in Deuce McCalister . My prediction is thar Reggie will be signed during when the regular season starts.

I find it hilarious when rookies that haven't played a snap in the NFL and expect 60 million dollar contract.

:p Teh...Reggie.

New Orleans doesn't deserve him being an ass for money.

Oh here we go.......another "we hate Reggie Bush" thread.

I have nothing against him as a player.

He's one hell of talent.

I just get a little pissed off when he's asking for 60 million dollars.
