And you are running  out of clever user names?  Or just tired of having to change? :)

Well to be fair he didnt leave, he retired.  Its not like he became a Packer or something.

I completely got the combo, but sent it back to be spit on because it was cold.  Jimmy must have been a line cook at some point.

We dont spit on it here. We just pack it up and send it First Class to Randy's dog.

Love the Kendricks signing, btw. He's a linebacking machine with self learning A.I.

A 54 would be a sweet jersey to buy.

I've seen various, conflicting details of Eric's new contract.  Has anybody seen anything definitive?

No cap hit increase in 2018,... winning!

edit: apparently VU is full of shit, eh...  ;)

Can someone explain how this adds up? 
Looks like base salary from 2019 through 2023 is $37.75M. 
The $250K per game roster bonus is another $20M.
The annual $100K workout bonus for 5 years = $500,000. 
How is this a $50M extension?

Won't we get hit with one fifth of the $10M signing bonus in 2018?  I think signing bonuses can be prorated max five years, so there would be no dead money in year six (the fifth year of the extension).

Edit:  yep, the 2018 cap hit increases by $2.1M due to bonus.  Overthecap has the updates:

I believe that the per game roster bonuses total $250K for each of those seasons, it is not $250K per game.  I misread it the same way the first time.  For some reason, this is how they are usually reported.
