This is VERY fair for both sides. Stroud keeps his familiar tight end and DS while not cashing in on a big contract gets a very fair one and stays on a team he likes, will probably be very good and where he will continue to put up enough stats to get another contract once this one's over! Only 2 of the 3 years guaranteed (23.5m) is completely doable. And how often do you hear the player getting a new FA contract equal to their respective league value? The 11th-12th best tight end getting a new contract making him the 11th-12th highest paid one "instead" of resetting the market a bit like FA's usually do. This is definitely a win-win imo!
Thanks for the correction! I suppose they can use the same method to lessen the current $15.75M cap hit.
No no no...don't take what I stated as fact. It's not confirmed if that's true, I'm just saying I thought there was a deadline. Have to confirm, could be what you mentioned before. Lol
I felt like I had a good handle on the NFL cap a few years ago, and they have to change everything up.
Good player and this is for his age 28-30 seasons at reasonable value, no brainer. Should draft a TE to develop this draft or next as well
I thought today was the deadline for this? Looks like Cashman's gone, LB goes near the front of the needs list.
I thought the deadline was sometime last month (Feb 19th?) and void years becomes dead money for 2024. So any new contract afterwards signed is consider brand spanking new and has nothing to do with the dead money due to previous contracts' void years.
