I like it! 3 years, 31.8 mil, 20 guaranteed, could be up to 37. I never trust the #'s when they come out, but that's what is being reported.
Maybe they realized that Tate was a mistake? Or maybe Tate didn't want to stay at any price.Seymour":1cl7dsof said:I like that they signed him, but to pay him considerably more than they offered Tate is both ridiculous and frankly a bit surprising. :?: :?: :?:

And Tate happened a couple of years ago. The market changes.

Not the case. Tate would have stayed for around $6-7M per year. Pete even commented that it was disappointing he never got their best offer for some weird reason? Lockett making near double that is not inflation.

Dude, that was years ago. The salary cap has increased substantially since that time, and so have player salaries.
Comparing a WR salary today to a WR salary from 2014 is clueless.

Your post is totally clueless. WR salaries HAVE NOT doubled in 3 years! :roll:
Also Baldwin recently signed for just about $1M per year more than that for a more recent comparison.

Your post is totally clueless. WR salaries HAVE NOT doubled in 4 years! :roll:
Also Baldwin recently signed for just about $1M per year more than that for a more recent comparison and Baldwin got 12M guaranteed and Lockett just got $20M!

The Top 20 WRs all average over $11 million per year. Odell Beckham recently reset the market with an average annual salary of $18 million.

No one compares new contracts to contracts from 2014. That is an apples to oranges discussion that has NOTHING to do with this deal.
