It is actually 5-89.5 you weren't even close in guarantees unless 50 MILLION off is close in your mind

Quoted for JASONSAUTO, who is a ****ing moron.

for the 19th time ...

AARON RODGERS SIGNED AN EXTENSION ...
ALEX SMITH SIGNED AN EXTENSION ...
TONY ROMO SIGNED AN EXTENSION ...

The only ****ing QB that is a "franchise" QB that didn't sign an extension in the last 5 years is Joe Flacco, and that's because he ****ing sucked, and Baltimore was going to move on from him before his miracle postseason.

I was referring to the scope of this entire silly debate.

Technically what you, Dane and Cochise are arguing is correct, but you're also playing dumb in an effort to "win" the argument. No one ever discusses contracts with the inclusion of the final year of the old contract. We discuss things purely with new money in mind. And Hootie's prediction, though technically wrong, was actually pretty close, especially if you extrapolate by adding another year, which they could have easily done.

NB4 BUT THEY DIDNT SO HOOTIES RONG!!!11!!!

How in the **** are people even arguing this? I should learn how to be a bigger person, but I'm stubborn. I mean, what the ****.

I'd agree and be sure to sign him if it were my team.

People forget that Brady was a game manager his first 3 years. They won 5 playoff games by 7 pts or less.

EVEN LAST YEAR Brady threw for 11ty billion yards in the SB and won by how many pts?...

Who cares what someone assumes what a five year deal WOULD been?

You were also 50 MILLION off in guaranteed money, which you were sure crowning about earlier.

And his ****ing deal is a 5 year 89.5 million dollar deal. This year isn't even the same as it was going to be money-wise, base or cap hit.


They tore up his old deal and made a new 5 year deal. He was going to make 1.5 million, now it is 700k with a 6.something cap hit.

It's a win-win.

Wilson will definitely get his money and Seattle can restructure later on and trade if they have to.

I don't think they will and I think Wilson will continue to evolve into the real deal...

Basically all this means to me is that the Seahawks aren't as sold on Wilson as Hootie seems to think they should be

I'm just going to throw this out there, because I know this is what will happen:

Before the 2018 season, Russell Wilson is going to sign another contract [extension]. It's going to be for 5 years, $130 million with $90 million guaranteed and a $40 million dollar signing bonus. It is going to take on 5 years to his EXISTING deal which is set to expire after 2019.

Russell is going to be a Seahawk for life. He is going to win at least 1 more Super Bowl. And he's going to make a metric shit ton of money. This new deal was a brilliant deal for him because now, no matter what, he has $60M dollars (because they aren't going to cut Russell Wilson any time soon). But more than likely, this deal gives him more leverage to extend his deal even further after 2017.

please give me an example of this happening

who's deal was ever "torn" up?

They are big money sold for 4 years of hit.

They can tailor that by play if he $3its the bed after 2 or 3 years...

what in the **** are you talking about?

Rodgers signed AN EXTENSION for 5/110/62.5 guaranteed according to that link
Wilson signed AN EXTENSION for 4/88/60 guaranteed according to what I read

I guess the Packers aren't sold on Rodgers.

Rodgers is 5 years older. Huge difference.
