Pioli is like an STD. He just keeps infecting us over (Jackson) and over (Cassel) and over (stalling Bowe) and over (Albert) and over (Carr) and over (picking Stephenson over Wilson) and over again.

Tyson Jackson to get $31 million guaranteed
Posted by NBC Sports on August 7, 2009, 12:08 PM EST

Chiefs defensive end Tyson Jackson is on his way to training camp, and he’ll be a very rich man when he arrives.

Nick Wright of KCSP radio in Kansas City has alerted PFT that Jackson’s deal is for five years and $57 million, with $31 million guaranteed. Jackson was the third overall pick in April’s draft.

Agents of other rookie holdouts, especially Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry, will be examining all the particulars of Jackson’s deal closely.

If the figures hold up, Jackson will receive only $2 million less in guarantees than number two pick, Rams T Jason Smith.

Last year’s third pick, Matt Ryan, received $34.75 million guaranteed on a $66 million contract, receiving the usual quarterback premium.

It’s not a huge surprise Jackson missed so much of training camp. The third overall pick has been a difficult spot in rookie negotiations dating back to Larry Fitzgerald, Braylon Edwards, and Vince Young.

It’s unclear when Jackson will begin practicing, but Wright reports that Jackson began his journey to training camp early Friday morning.

I wonder if Hali is approached about restructuring his deal.

His 2014 number 11.5m 2015 12m I just don't see how restructuring helps us out. Do you really wanna add years to his deal ? When his current contract is up he will be 32 going on 33.

Good news and good links. Hoping AR/Dorsey manage wisely. A Lombardi scooner.

I'm dumb.

I looked up that shit yesterday and completely forgot about his next 2 years.

We can clear a lot of cap space by:
1) Cutting/Restructuring TJax.
2) Cutting Cassel.
3) Restructuring/Trading Tamba Hali
4) Extending/Restructuring Eric Berry

Uh we better not trade Tamba Hali. That would be stupid.

Would it, if it netted us a pass-rusher in the draft?

Probably too early but Baldwin sure doesn't seem worth 2 million either.

Who did you have in mind?

Yeah you know what you got with Tamba, a proven pro bowler. You have no idea what you are getting in the draft.

There is a part of me that craves to see Barkevious Mingo developed into a monster in red.
