Pettis does have an opportunity to really endear himself to the staff here. Going to be telling for him.

Someone had to take Goodwin’s spot haha. I would say Pettis earned it off of last years performance, but the book isn’t closed on him either. 

Yeah, when you go from highly thought of second rounder after a promising rookie season to legitimate questionable roster bubble guy in the span of only a year, that is where you end up. It really sucks too, because there was a lot to be excited about that first year.

Likely over....but also apparently tied to a percentage of the cap. Which is a brilliant way to get the contract done. So really just depends on what percentage of the cap they have negotiated.

I actually have wondered in the past and have brought this up if this was possible or not. Would be the way to go with QBs where they are compensated appropriately and at the same time don't take TOO much of the team's cap space where they hurt elsewhere.

Wouldn't be a bad idea to do something similar with Kittle's extension.

Didn't even take into consideration the two years he has left on his rookie deal. Good for him and the Chiefs. What happens with Jones now?

Interesting that it doesn't tie to the cap space. Wonder what year he has an out, or if he does have one.

But lawd is that A LOT of money. Again, good for him!

It's really interesting from both perspectives. You can also only stretch things like signing bonuses for 5 years, so the back end of this deal doesn't have any real impact financially, but basically at that point allows both parties to renegotiate / restructure the deal. So Mahomes can convert his base salaries in years 6-10 to signing bonuses, get raises, etc.

Jason Peters resigned with philly. One year deal to play Guard.

Good for him and the Chiefs. Loaded team that could very well be the next dynasty.

Besides, we had to create room for Jamal Adams, apparently. I guess those rumors still won't die lol.

Because somehow Cohn got a gig at SI and he keeps saying the Niners will trade for Adams. HE is the one who won't let the rumors die lol.

It's hilarious. I go to the B/R stream and it's picked up everywhere. 

Now there are rumors that we have made calls for sure...i'm not sure if those are sourced to Cohn or not though.
