Is saying the numbers that are out there aren't accurate. Plus everybody needs to stop looking at the 17 million a year number. It's fake. Guaranteed money is the only thing that matters.


Yet again, you're wrong. The non-guaranteed matters also as long as he's on the roster and under contract. I don't know why you seem to think that players only get paid the guaranteed portion.



Because he's probably never going to see the end of the contract. Just like most free agent signings in the NFL.



Not to mention bonuses & incentives. We have no clue how that's broken down. Everytime we first see a contract it looks huge. Then the actual numbers come out and it isn't nearly as big as originally thought.

Doesn't change the fact that you're wrong. It's not just the guaranteed dollars that matter. Milton did a good job of detailing how the first three years of a large multiyear contract are the most important thing, much more than the guaranteed/non-guaranteed breakdown.

RE: Geesh, you'd think that the fans had to pay JPP.

Well, maybe season ticket holders will have to pay some.

It's not even the owners' money, at least not out of pocket. The Giants annual revenue is almost a half a billion dollars and under two hundred thousand goes to the cost of players. The owners are already wealthy and they want to win just as much as the fans.

Besides JPP's sacks, it's also his batted down passes and the help that Vernon, on the other side of the line, gets because they can't double both ends. Vernon had only a half a sack in the last five games of the season without JPP, including Green Bay.

It's a gamble that his health and productivity stay high, but you gamble on all the players. If you want to stop Brady and Rodgers, you have to have pressure on them. If you want to stop Dak and Zeke, and win at least one against the 'Boys, you have to have players equally good lined up against them.

I'm already excited about seeing this defense back on the field.


You're completely missing the point as to why fans sometimes are unhappy with contracts given to players. Completely missing the point.
