The key in these deals is the guaranteed money, it could be 5/$200 million, but if the guaranteed money is $30 million it means little to the overall deal.

Maybe this is a horrible idea for other reasons... but they capped the rookie salaries, why can't they put a cap on player salaries also (meaning limit the $ any one player can command)?

I'm just tired of QBs holding teams hostage by taking up so much cap room forcing some of our favorite players to leave our favorite teams just so they can get a decent / new contract with somebody else.

players aren't going to agree to that.

owners can always do away with the salary cap if they don't like one player taking up all the cap room

Interesting, that contract has some teeth, better work out for the SF.

$62mm is the true guaranteed figure

$31mm against the cap this year (they still have $80mm free)

$20mm next year

27mm each year after.

Not unfriendly at all to their cap. he can be cut after two years with very little effect in dead money

Garafolo? Maiocco? Are only people with equally unusual names allowed to comment on Garoppolo?

To be fair there are Texans fans who would pay Watson that much after his 6 starts.

If Watson were a free agent, a fan of the Texans would be right to be excited about getting him to agree to a deal with these terms.

Why's it a bad deal? Lower guaranteed money than Stafford last season. I'd say that's about the market rate that he just got.
