Salary cap and veteran contracts have not been one of Dorsey's strengths. I would gladly take a small, reasonable salary as Cap Consultant. :thumb: That said, I'm not calling for his job. He's also made a lot of good moves with the roster.

lol I'm just giving you shit man!

I'll say it again here, because either I'm confused or a few others are:

This should work out to around a $16 million cap hit per season on average.

Remains to be seen whether the deal will be worth it or not but I think he can be effective for the length of the contract.

So you don't have the pull to get me hired as a Capoligist?

So really this deal is 4/47 with chiefs having plenty of leverage and flexibility in the 2021 season.

How? 78÷6 is 13 exactly. How do you get to a 16 mil AAV?

Eric Berry signs 6-year, $78m extension
 

That's where either I or a few of you guys are confused..

As far as I'm aware, when figuring out the CAP HIT, you have to include the signing bonus, which is generally stretched out over the length of the contract. So we'd essentially be adding an additional $3+ million per season ($20m divided by 6 years) to the $13m salary.

How did you get 16?

"Chiefs gave S Eric Berry a six-year, $78 million deal that includes $40 million guaranteed and a $20 mil signing bonus, per source."

The signing bonus is part of the $78m.

Love me some Eric Berry

Nice!! :thumb:

Guess I was the one confused then.

That's awesome. $13m cap hit isn't too bad.

You're still wrong.

The $78 million includes the bonus. It's $58 million in salary + $20 million signing bonus.

You're double counting the signing bonus - no contracts are ever announced like that.

Can only spread a bonus over 5; so take the $58 million in salary, guarantee $20 of it (the remaining $20 mil gtd is the bonus) and spread that out over 6 years however you see fit, then add $4 mil/season to the first 5 seasons for the total cap hit.

yea Clark literally cut a fat check when that contract was signed today.

This agent is cleaning Clarks pockets Berry, LDT, Spiller
