detfan782004 Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Well with that Ridley deal Detroit might want to not sign anyone else. It's going to take a payday to keep ASB. The longer they wait the more it costs. Seems like a small failure so far getting this deal not done sooner 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been reports that they are working on an extension already. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The player have these folks working for them called agents. It is there job to get their client the best deal possible. My guess is that the agents are waiting to see where the market settles. For their part, the Lions may have wanted to see what holes they can fill in free agency before addressing contracts for ARSB and Jared Goff. Also a prudent move. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

detfan782004 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Pittman gets about 23 per year Ridley gets about 23 per year Jefferson turns down 30 plus per year last year Mike Evan's gets 26 per year Kupp at 26 Hill at 30 Adams at 28 Jefferson will top 30 easy to get a deal ARSB isn't likely going to settle for 26-28. He doesn't have Diva vibes but you are talking about a guy who was upset about being passed over in draft. So much that he kept that list and obsessed over that list. Hes gonna want money. It will take 29-31 per year imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The order of the extensions that get done this year make a big difference. If the Lions extended Taylor Decker for a year or two and sign Jared Goff to an extension their 2024 numbers would come down. Most of ARSB 2025 number would be paid for by the 2024dead money (about $23 Million) rolling off of our 2025 cap. That is the way it would make sense to me anyway. The Cam Sutton situation complicates things though. The Lions voided his guaranteed salary but made him a June 1st cut. I don't quite understand when the cap savings show up.

I believe the Lions are on the hook for around $9M either way. 2024 - $2.5M+/- 2025 - $6.5M +/- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
