The Gnat Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 I'm cool with that. Locking him down for a while, and I'd assume it's a more standard 2-3 year deal with 2 years at the end that they can get out of if they want to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbroy45 Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Exact numbers. He's worth every penny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CriminalMind Posted June 27, 2018 Author Share Posted June 27, 2018 That looks pretty solid... as an initial pricing. $14M over 5 years, maybe 3-4 years guaranteed. Would have cost us a lot more, had we delayed. We had the leverage, and we used it. Was predicting Hunter would be the 1st of the remaining extensions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbroy45 Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Tack on $3 million to his hit this year because of the SB, you figure they could easily get out of this deal 3 years into this extension, maybe even 2, which is pretty much Brz's calling card at this point. Absolutely love it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingsrule Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Great contract! Would hate to lose a young edge rusher. Now if Richardson has a big year, you've got to find a way to keep him too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CriminalMind Posted June 27, 2018 Author Share Posted June 27, 2018 We just extended the coming DPOY, else we'd have need to franchise him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand the fascination with extending a guy (Richardson) who hasn't even played a down yet in the Zimmer defense. But, on topic, this is outstanding and I think it'll pay off as a good deal here in a few years. I think most people here correctly predicted that he'd be the next to sign. I also don't agree on your order either JD. I think Barr is next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDBrocks Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Because I have seen him perform at a higher level at a more important position than Barr or Waynes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, that was 3 years ago. He's done little in the last 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
