Forge Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 not sure what the guarantees are, but I don't mind the salary if a large chunk of that is based on playing time / per game bonuses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ET80 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 How...wait...what!? $20mm!? How? Why? How does this happen EVERY year? How does Sam Bradford hit the lottery every single off-season, despite a consistent trend of injuries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forge Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Sam Bradford up there with Larry Fitz and Cousins for greatest maximizer of football salaries ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKillerNacho Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Honestly this is fine. $20M a bit higher is the going rate of a starting QB annually, but that's the trade off to it being just a 1-year deal. The Cardinals know they aren't going to be in a position to start anyone better this season, s a one-year prove it deal seems like the best course of action. If Bradford stays healthy and plays well, they can always work out a long-term deal. If not, at least they should have a pretty good pick in next year's draft. They can still draft a QB high in this draft to groom behind him, even. I think some people are overreacting a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berlin calling Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Weddle knows. How this guy continues to convince teams to pay him top dollar is beyond me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll cancel out the Cousins deal but we'll likely get a 3rd for Keenum going to Denver and another pick for Teddy wherever he lands (Jets as of now).

I just thought I remembered hearing 1 year deals don't count at all in the comp formula? Maybe not. He does have an option so maybe it's considered a 2 year deal either way.

I don't think that's a thing. Let's all just accept that the Vikings will likely get 2 extra late 2019 3rds out of this QB shuffle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
