It's a 5 year extension worth $68 million.

They've also tagged Leveon Bell. If they ink him to a new deal as well they'll have eaten up a nice chunk of their cap.

Imagine how awesome the Chiefs will be if they have to pay him that.

Tough call. He's so valuable and they use him in punt return too. That said, hes got some issues and looks iffy sans Rapistburger.

Didn't Larry Fitzgerald sign a $100 million deal with the Cards some time ago?

That was back in 2011. They've done some restructuring/extending to get his AAV down.

I believe the article said AJ Green was the highest paid WR annually prior to this deal at $15m. Apparently AB's extension bumps him up to $17m per year.

A receiver is only as good as the qb throwing them the ball

Ben & Brown are damn good combo

So now the three Bs will eat up a shitload of cap room, their D will still suck, and this is why the Pats have been great for 15 years.
