So his cap hit will go up when guys like Smith and Hali are off the team. Sounds fine to me.

LDT likely would have taken 5-6 million per year if it was offered. The extension isn't confusing, the $$$ is.

He's not a top 5 guard right now. Until he becomes good in the run game, he can't be put in that group.

They haven't released the $$$ figures yet. People freak out over shit like this and no information is given.

Wait until the yearly cap hits are revealed

My bad on that guys, had one of those moments where I forgot what year it was.

It kicks in during 2018.

No worries, that actually makes it a pretty decent deal. Especially after we see what TJ Lang and Levitre will get.

Figured that had to be the case.

Probably still need to pump the brakes before going too far off the rails. It's not unreasonable to think that a deal that's 5 years long could have a salary approaching $15 million at the end (inflation's a bitch). So if this thing is actually a 4 year, $26 million extension with $10 million in bonus and years 1 and 2 guaranteed with year 3 partially guaranteed to reach $20 million in guaranteed 'new' money, then you end up with an ascending guard at slightly below market for good interior lineman.

Let. The. Structure. Come. Out.

We have to re-teach this lesson every year.

On a bright note, the 2018 FA list for the Chiefs seems very bare in terms of big time talent.

The only major names on it are Dee Ford (who won't be when his 5th-year option is picked up), Jamaal Charles (may not even be there in '17), and Jaye Howard. The rest are JAGs, unless someone steps up big time.

Yeah, if LDT continues his upward trend its entirely possible that he winds up as a Pro Bowl guard who is making the same % of the cap as each year progresses.

Maybe he is better than we think? Top 5 in pass blocking efficiency in 2016. Would have never knew had he not signed.

Top overall grade: C Mitch Morse, 82.5 (No. 14)

Top pass-blocking grade: G Laurent Duvernay-Tardif, 83.9 (No. 26)

Top run-blocking grade: LT Eric Fisher, 82.8 (No. 11)

They clearly view LDT as their TJ Lang. Both elite in pass pro, average in run blocking

Gross.

Larry the turd is turrble...

dlphg9 02-27-2017 05:11 PM

You guys just want something to bitch about. He's been a decent guard. Contracts go up every year

Iowanian 02-27-2017 05:12 PM

NO dlphg9....LTD is harder to watch than you when you've accidentally lubed your tampon with icy hot.

We aren't paying him like a decent guard. We are playing like a top-3 guard in the NFL. Yes, contracts go up but not that much.

Hopefully, it's dramatically backloaded

You swore you wouldn't tell anyone about that

Iowanian 02-27-2017 05:18 PM

I fear if I stay online I will be unleashing A LOT of unknown truths upon undeserving people.

They fired the team doctor. The Big Tard is giving us a 2 for 1 special.
