This is the only response, so glad he is staying!

The money that the elite players are getting is absolutely stupid. Anyone wanting that kind of money can't give a crap about winning or their team. It just makes me sick. If he was getting half that much, he would still be making more money than he could ever spend and the other $20M per year could go towards making the team competitive. What happened to him wanting to be on a more competitive team? This ridiculous contract only helped to keep his team to continue to struggle to be competitive. SMH.

The price to extend George just went up

Did it? Garrett is on a different planet than George.

Also, the Browns are not a sane organization. I hope players and their agents understand that.

A rising tide lifts all boats- he won’t get these the deal that Garrett got but this means the even mid-level edge players should get paid more - similar to how the WR market was reset two years ago and now receivers like Gabe Davis can negotiate huge contracts (he got more AAV than Saquon Barkley I believe)

So much for all those Bills and Eagles fans who swore that Garrett was as good as theirs.

Yeah, have fun with that.

This is the kind of shit players regret later when they retire and never played in a single meaningful game.

He made the decision every other player in the same spot would have made, he got QB money.

40m per year. Wow.

Holy shit that's a lot of cap space....

$40 million a year. If only I could be half the loser he is

Cleveland is so far away from competing, they really should have traded him.

Yes he is the best DE in the league but that hasnt helped them win shit!

A team that thinks he is the only missing piece would have given up the farm for him.

Cleveland is the dumbest franchise, over and over. They should have kept Dorsey and let him make these decisions.

Stanley takes less than market to stay home, Garrett gets the farm and futures. The difference between good and bad franchises.

Yes but there comes a point where with someone like him where he's not gonna increase his "happiness" due to money, and as a player there's so many out there that just wished they could have played for a championship.

It took Reek like 1 season before he realized he ****ed up.

He got paid, good for him. He will never play in a super bowl or most likely in any meaningful games ever. But this did keep him off of the Bills so it's fine.

I'll bet they sign Cousins when he gets cut and draft Hunter. That corner of their's, Ward is like 1 good hit away from having his brains scrambled. He should retire.
