ramssuperbowl99 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Just now, Yin-Yang said: That’s not true. Goff had $57M GTD when he signed. The rest of his GTD dollars were, as you say, “not real guarantees”. And an injury guarantee is not the same as a signing bonus. The $140M number is just for injury. There’s likely a signing bonus and guarantees in the first couple years. Yeah I want to see all of the deals. I hate how NFL journalists announce contracts. They'd be better off just not saying any of the details, because 90% of the time they use the word "guarantee", it's not actually guaranteed money. Makes things needlessly complicated.

The owners payed Goodell $40MM/year, so yeah...they'd fall over themselves for the right to pay Mahomes $5M/year more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first he got an MVP the second he got a Super Bowl. He’s never going to be more valuable than this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seminoles1 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 (edited) He obviously doesn't care about winning, right @rfournier103? I mean you certainly wouldn't want Mahomes on your team after this. Lucky you for avoiding this selfish player on your team. Great for Mahomes. I love when players set new precedents. I'm shocked at the length, but it seems he gave himself some outs just in case.

He's making 503 million over 10 years $477MM if you count the "guarantee mechanisms" (please god let that phrase die). Discount it a little bit for being backloaded and it's probably ~$45MM/year NPV. But yeah if you wanna say $10M, that's fine too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VigilantZombie Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 $45M avg for a QB is just stupid. Good for Mahomes but if people really think this isn't gonna hurt the longevity of being able to keep top tier talent on the roster they're crazy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's the most talented QB I've ever seen, and QB is the most important position on the field. It is a crazy amount of money though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mahommes gives you a greater chance to win an SB than whatever other players you would sign with the cap space. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancerman Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 1 hour ago, Kirill said: It's not tied to a percentage of the cap? So scrub QB's will be getting handed out more money annually than Mahomes is making in a few years. What an absolute steal. Brett Veach is the best GM in the league. He has 10 million more than the next QB. Nobody is surpassing him yearly until at least the back half of the contract. Hell for all we know the cap might not go up much due to Covid. Insanely smart deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deshaun ain’t worth that contract 10 years or not. Only Mahomes can even negotiate that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
