    His goal was more guaranteed then Deshaun right?

    He got Hurts money, which is about right.

    An over payment by Baltimore but not ridiculous.

    He got more than Hurts money + he isn't paying an agent.

    lol you didnt say anything in your post about deserve

    plus thats not what i was even arguing, i said watson and mahomes both came into the league 2 picks apart in 2017 and they both set the bar for what nfl contracts are today. prior to mahomes signing his contract nobody ever thought a 500 million contract would be signed, then watson comes in 2 years later and gets 230 guarenteed

    He got like 5 million more, which is about 1%, difference. Kind of silly to make a stink about that distinction.

    Good for him I suppose but doesn't really affect the decision from the team's perspective.

    Hard to say anyone "won" here since we don't know who had to move and how much in negotiation.
