Win-win: The #Vikings and pass-rusher Danielle Hunter have agreed to terms on a reworked deal, sources say. Hunter gets significant money moved up in his contract, while Minnesota gets one of its stars to report. A solid conclusion for all sides in an ongoing saga.

So what's our cap space now? Looks like Harry & O'Neill are next on the contract front.

Additional 5.6 million this year, and $20 next year unless released or a new deal in place.

Gotta imagine that as long as he shows that he's healthy and the same player, he's gonna get PAID next year.

$20 next year, not quite a $3 million bump.

Honestly, he's still grossly underpaid. About $6 million short of Spicoli.

He's still outside the top 5 for edge defenders in pay. Closer to $7 million behind Bosa. $5 million behind Garrett. 

I'm glad it's resolved, but he's not significantly better off based on the early numbers.
