    The 3rd year is likely there to extend the bonus hit. And he'll get cut by then. I can't imagine it's actually an evenly broken down contract like Foster/Manning/Joseph got.

    Wow I hope thats inacurate. Thats too much for a 34yr old. He doesn't seem like a Ronde Barber, Jason Taylor health nut type guy. This is starting to smell like Ahmad Green

    I swear you've called him "Ahmad" like 10 times.

    Either way, why do you hope it's inaccurate? There are no terms listed!!! It could be $7 mil guaranteed and $1M per yr Pro Bowl and $2M per year DPOY

    Who the hell knows...why worry about terms like "maximum value" without knowing details?

    LOL. Ahman Green and Ed Reed aren't even in the same stratosphere as players. One was an above average running back for a few years, the other a hall of fame safety, who started on a Super Bowl winning team last year.

    i know the name Ed Reed....

    how was his performance this past year? Not taking his career numbers, the obvious questions is what does he have left in the tank and how will he perform as a Texan....will he adjust not being in purple and black?

    that being said, im all for taking the risk just for his leadership and "swag"

    Guys, I just saw Ed Reed board a departing flight at BWI. No word on where it was headed to...

    ItsMyFault posted some stats in response to me in the other thread

    But he didn't read what I wrote and just threw some stats out there. I didn't say his #'s weren't down

    I think Reed could very easily have a bounceback year after playing with a torn labrum for half the year. And after feeling like he was told by most of the league that he doesn't have "it" anymore

    considering our qb, that's not a ringing endorsement, they need a playmaker lets hope there's some left in the tank

    Well Andre said he'd restructure so I'm not trippin, I hope he retires here but I see him getting hurt. I hope it works cause when Manning plays to his full potential they could be the best tandem in the league. And I've only called him Ahmad twice LoL

    Well he did say it was the maximum amount, which means he most likely didn't get that much and both sides met somewhere in the middle.
