Also highlights that Cleveland is the worst place to play QB.

gotta think Demeco & the Texans will have a good chance with Armstead

Curious what he's asking for. He was due 18mil, Niners wanted him to take a pay cut. I'm assuming he's gonna be looking for something like 15mil+?

Bears are looking to add a piece on the DL (whether interior or edge) but Armstead is a red flag for me. Missed significant time the past two years. I believe he is repairing a torn meniscus this offseason (huge props to his ability to play through that effectively). Hes going on 31, I wouldn't feel good about commiting money past one year here, esp since the Bears are a young, building team.

He must have some info around the league he can get paid though. I think with his injuries/age, he wont have a HUGE market unless he has something already lined up. Houston makes sense with Demeco

It's a shame that the NFLPA can't nip all this renegotiation shyt in the bud

Teams actively will make themselves worse just to shave off a few dollars of cap space. Players get sabotaged just to "justify" a lower fee or get released seemingly at random because it creates space that isn't even used to make the team better.

I know your an eagle shill but doubt that barkley will have that kind of an impact on the eagles, built completely differently than the 9ers and though they are a balanced team that runs a lot, they are a lot less physical than them. They also have a better QB and are a lot more vertical in the air so he wont be getting as many passes as CMC either if he went there

Its a signing that makes sense if it happens but a CMC effect…nah

Not anymore. Toddler's their OC now

Hurts about to lead the league in picks

Perfect no 2 somewhere

Buffalo could use him

Mac Jones x Tee Higgins connection

Buffalo has no money.

Patriots might as well do it.

I have no clue how the money would work out, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Carolina makes a strong play for Higgins…

Inside the new deal for Chiefs DT Chris Jones

Chiefs DT inches past Aaron Donald for highest-paid defensive tackle.

www.nbcsports.com

Four weeks after winning his third Super Bowl, Chiefs defensive tackle Chiefs Jones has gotten his third contract. And it’s a big one.

Jones becomes the highest-paid defensive tackle in the league, with a new five-year, $158.75 million deal. The average of $31.75 million surpasses the $31.67 million average from the three-year, $95 million contract signed by Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald in 2022.


Here are the details of the deal, per a source with knowledge of the situation:

1. Signing bonus: $30 million. ($18 million is due by April 5, 2024; $12 million is due by April 5, 2025.)

2. 2024 base salary: $1.25 million, fully guaranteed.


3. 2024 offseason workout bonus: $100,000.

4. 2025 roster bonus: $15 million, fully guaranteed at signing.

5. 2025 base salary: $13.75 million, fully guaranteed.

6. 2025 offseason workout bonus: $100,000.

7. 2026 roster bonus: $16 million, guaranteed for injury at signing, and fully guaranteed as of the third day of the 2025 league year.

8. 2026 base salary: $19 million, guaranteed for injury at signing, and fully guaranteed as of the third day of the 2025 league year.

9. 2026 offseason workout bonus: $100,000.

10. 2027 base salary: $28.25 million, $3 million of which becomes fully guaranteed on the third day of the 2027 league year.

11. 2027 offseason workout bonus: $100,000.

12. 2028 base salary: $35 million, $3 million of which becomes fully guaranteed on the third day of the 2028 league year.

13. 2028 offseason workout bonus: $100,000.

It’s a three-year deal with a practical guarantee of $95.3 million, inching out Donald’s three-year, $95 million haul. (The offseason workout bonuses of $100,000 made the difference.)

Although three years aren’t fully guaranteed at signing, the Chiefs would have to cut him after one year to avoid the $95 million obligation. If they do, they would owe him $60.2 million for one year.

The Chiefs have an option on the final two years. It remains to be seen whether the Chiefs will pay him $28.5 million in 2027, when he’s 32. Then, at 33, the salary becomes $33.5 million.
