It's a fine deal and pretty sane for one of the best players in FA. I sincerely doubt that he agreed to a deal where only 3 years carries guaranteed money, because that means he didn't take a signing bonus. I can't recall the last time a major FA didn't get a signing bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green19 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 If Green Bay is going to “over spend” it will be on edge rushers not safeties. Both Smiths are likely targets... as well as Ford and Houston. Gute is more Ted then Ron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collins is younger and has no injury history and the back half 3/39 could seem like a really cheap deal in 2022-2024 cap numbers. I think we'd all agree that when healthy (which is a huge caveat) Earl Thomas is a significantly better player than Landon Collins. But Earl Thomas plays an exponentially more valuable role than Collins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a fine deal and pretty sane for one of the best players in FA. I didn't see the details on that, my bad. I get what you're saying now about 3/45. I still stand with wanting to pay that extra mil for Earl than him though. In my opinion he's the most impactful player you can get on defense in the open market easily. I could care less about his age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Landon Collins hasnt had an All Pro Season since 2016 and while I love him and his leadership / skillset the fact is a player with that skill set is a dime a dozen. A player like ET is a generational talent and much harder to find and typically when a player like ET comes around they dont change teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can get 30 mil up front without it being prorated over the course of the 5 years that a signing bonus is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gute is not going to spend on safeties. He WILL on edge. Hence Mack, Ford, etc. If Green Bay “over spends” its more likely on edge guys this off season. Thomas is a pipe dream... CB, Edge, OT, QB... these are the positions Green Bay will give up premium captial for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk the details but you can read that as only 45 for the first 3. But I'm guessing if he stays there 3 years, it's more than that.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
