I think Reese is good, not Acorsi, but good. I think he tried too hard to get value and "huge upside" people before. Now he's sticking to known quantities.

The Giants and Jason Pierre-Paul have agreed to a 4-year deal expected to be about $17M/year with about $54M guaranteed, per @AdamSchefter.
Long-term deal for Jason Pierre-Paul will surely reduce his 2017 cap hit and open up space for Giants to do more free-agent work. They still want DT Johnathan Hankins back but have not been willing/able to meet his price. It's possible this changes that, though I wouldn't assume it automatically does.
if he is still making 17 mill per? This just increases our risk. Unless it's backloaded.. we desperately needed the cap space to get Hankins back (and Robinson.)
seems legit!!
Great news!!! Now lets get Robinson and Hankins back. Link - ( New Window )
Agree. Re-sign both of them and let's move on to the draft. Or re-sign Robinson and use the Hankins $ to go ahead and extend somebody who's deal is ending next year.
Actually made him money! I think he made more by getting this contract plus the last two years than he would have if he signed the original (60 million?) deal that was on the table before his accident.

For him to work as hard as he did and come back the way he did, he will have earned every penny IMO. The amount of BBI'ers, reporters, and even professional scouts who completely wrote him off after that accident was astounding. He proved [almost] everyone wrong. Happy for him.

Don't think either are coming back actually.
Hankins asking price is too high and the Giants probably want a real three tech DT anyway.
I like Robinson, but you can find LBs that can cover in the draft. Also, this class is loaded at safety. Drafting another one allows you to put Collins in the box more or at LB in the nickel package.
vehicle he can get himself to the offices with and sign that fucker pronto. I like JPP, but that's about as much money as one guy can make given the circumstances.
they've reached an agreement, but he hasn't formally signed the contract. OTOH, why would he even get on Twitter and make such a statement if that was true?
The guaranteed money alone is $13.5M per year if true... how low can his base salary possibly be in the first 2-3 years... under $1M?... then inflate the final number to like $30M, and essentially 3 year deal?

Guaranteed doesn't mean signing bonus, they are different. They guaranteed his salary for a portion of it.
That can't be real, right? Eli, OV, JPP would be consuming a pretty high % of the cap.
Agreed. Part of the reason for a new deal was to lower his cap number for this year, which is $17M on the FT. This deal apparently pays him $17M this year, so it wouldn't free up any more cap space.
Holy shit he got PAID
Happy St. Patty's day to JPP!!!
Great news!
An excessively tame celebration, ideally.
they've decided to go all in for the last few seasons of Eli Manning's career.

really. how would a $17 MM cap hit for 4 years be better than for 1 year?
But let's see the details before coming to any conclusions

Time to go celebrate

Indeed.
I would imagine JPP feels a lot of satisfaction right now and has learned a lot from the past.
Does this re-cement me as a certified asshat in addition to being a certified asshole?

I'm sure someone will toss your salad
Thanks, I didn't want to be that guy. I respect that they're going all in for Eli's last couple of years though.

I'd say you're certifiable.
Dunno, but 'ain't signed nothing' doesn't seem to imply a problem with terms...
