Hilarious it took this long. Don't worry Pete, he'll whine about how much he's making in a year or two. Enjoy that headache.

2 years, 85.5 mil. For geDIOCRE gePICK?

 

[projectorfreak]

Can't imagine it's anymore than 45 a year
Pretty much what we offered
I thought it was stupid on his part cuz i think kubiaks scheme played right in his wheelhouse
All that for nothing unless they pay him top tier money

He just wanted to be with Pete. We knew this all along. Happy for him.

This should be fun

 

[BirdsCommaAngry]

Ouch. That's what we would have given him. Main thing he accomplished was getting himself onto a likely worse team.

Becomes the league's 17th highest-paid QB.

About where he should be. This talk about the league viewing him as a top 10 guy was always too generous.

A lot of the talk of how much better Geno's going to be with the Raiders without immediate pressure reminds me so much of how much talk there was 3 years ago in the off-season of how much better Wilson would be in Denver without a bad o-line and Pete holding him back.

Damn…I understand everyone’s sentiments here.

But, I feel like Geno is/was better than Sam in our new offense.

Just a ‘feeling’…please don’t be harsh on me!!

No one should be hard on you as it's a valid opinion. I don't share it but I also don't think any less of you for having it lol.

 

[SonicHawk]

Seems like a decent deal for Geno and the Raiders. Good for him, he gets his final good contract.

Yep they should all get every dollar they can. I'll never fault a dude for getting what's his. I bet he has a decent year in that system

 

[Maelstrom787]

Just a quick clarification on the numbers

Man…Oz…the thing that ‘gets’ me is the whole O-line thing.

By many metrics, we were dead last or close to it (31st on PFF).

I know we made an offer to Geno and if players don’t want to be here, see-ya!!

If our line was decent, we wouldn’t be having this conversation because everyone would eat!

I’m holding on to the fact that we’re rather young up front…and more than any other position group sans QB,O-linemen often need time to mature.

If Darnold comes in ripping it up, perhaps this perspective is null and void.
