A 3 year fully guaranteed deal seems more realistic. Idk how eligibility for the franchise tag works, but that could potentially screw them if they try to cash in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soko Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Julio will catch some flak now, but this will ultimately make him richer in the long run. Don’t blame him for wanting the money while the market is hot/he’s still relatively youthful, and I don’t blame others for calling him selfish or wanting him to report. Nature of the business.

JaguarCrazy2832 Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 This is sort of the fallout of front loading a contact. The player loves it because he gets uber paid early but that comes at a price in the later years. You cant just cry foul when you got yours early on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just took 4 mil from his base salary next year and turned it into a signing bonus. So that 4 mil he gets now in cash and we spread that 4 mil across the next 3 years of his contract. So he is still getting the same amount of money in general as his contract already said if he would have played all the games. It doesn't affect our cap hit this year anymore since it's a signing bonus and it actually lowers the cap hits of his base salary's a few mil the next 2 or so years. Although im quite sure they will do a new deal next offseason more than likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes him happy now just like a front loaded deal would but again they have to address it again or he won't be reporting to camp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you give up 4 million next year for 4 million this year, then you haven't gained anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering from the sound of it his contract had no more guaranteed money, this means that if for some reason he got injured or cut, not likely but we've seen crazier things, then he would be guaranteed the 4 million from next year that he wouldn't have gotten otherwise. So he really has gained something and that's additional security. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the thing tho - if you're constantly overpaying guys the culture isn't going to change because your roster isn't going to actually get better as the rest of the league is paying less for more. Gotta build through the draft... I know the Browns have tried (and failed) to do this, but it's the only way. There's a long history of teams breaking the bank in free agency only to go on to having a losing record, and those contracts crippling them for years.

There's a long history of teams breaking the bank in free agency only to go on to having a losing record, and those contracts crippling them for years. While true they can afford to pay players like Landry and others (deserving market value) because they're not wasting $100M on the QB position. It's why the Mayfield pick has to work out. You build around Rookie contracts. If the Mayfield's, Garrett's, Wards, Peppers work out those are the building blocks you have on the cheap. By the time they get paid players getting top $ now, get cut, restructured, move on. Although it looks right now that Jarvis is overpaid, the ever growing cap will make that contract look minimal in 3 years when WR's are making 20+. Unfortunately it's coming. I'm good with them overpaying to "acquire" talent. Otherwise no one would sign in Cleveland. Browns future is trending Up! Assuming 1/2 or god forbid all 4 listed above aren't busts.
