| The deal is believed to be worth more than $25 Million over the 5-year length, with additional incentives that could add another million to each year of the deal. The value of his new Nike endorsement deal actually dwarfs his current team contract, as Odell’s initial 4-year deal with the Giants as a 2014 Draft pick pays him $10.4 Million over the length of the deal, along with a $5.9 Million signing bonus. |
isn't that the point?
He already has.. nearly 300 times in a short 3 year span.

Of course. My point is simply that he should have gotten more, though 25 mil is a nice piece of change..They will make a fortune off of him
He should buy his own damn boat and stay in the NY area! <g>

He should've signed with this guy...
Brad Wing had a funny tweet saying Odell should give him all of his Yeezy sneakers now.

Now if he could just catch the ball in clutch situations and playoff time?

There fixed it.

The article says it's 29 mil over 5 years with incentives possibly adding another mil per year.
They will make a fortune off of him but he made out pretty good as well IMO. Hard to do better than the richest endorsement deal in the NFL but I'm sure by the time the deal runs out, this number will seem really low.

You are right, he's never made a clutch catch before...

We want Nike, Fathead, Buick and Head & Shoulders to give him millions.
Every dollar they give COULD BE one less dollar he needs from the NY Giants....

Yeah, you know, he didn't make a ridiculous one-handed catch late against Detroit to seal the win, nor did he take a quick slant to the house for our biggest win of the season against the cowboys. Let's only focus on an admittedly bad, yet sole playoff game of his career to say he can't catch/catch in clutch situations. Forget that, as Giants fans, we happen to have one of the best offensive talents to come out in a long time w/ a historic, record-breaking start to his career as one of our own. Let's focus on the boat and a bad game to judge his worth. Let's reminisce on the days when we had Chris Calloway leading our receiving corps instead.
Looked at another way, if Nike is giving out $25m, think of how much they expect to make off the deal.
This isnt really something he could have done on his own. He's not going to be a sneaker brand. It's not like a doctor deciding between $200k/year from an established practice vs. the profits from starting his own practice. Here you squeeze the most you can from the market and move on.
I'm happy for him but pray he grows up and doesn't let this money lead him into the grasps of junkies, drugs, and wild partying as we have seen happen with very high paid athletes all too often.
A young kid wants Odell's shoes because he is a big fan of Odell's and that father is a fool to buy his son those shoes??
2. People talk about him like hes PacMan Jones. Note to the ignorant: he's never been in trouble (and a short trip to Miami on his days off don't count).
3. He's the most productive WR in the history of the sport after 3 years.
These shoes are specific to the football field.
Eli is doing pretty well there, why can't Odell?
What about the ridiculous amount of money people pay to watch a game?
How much does the average fan pay to actually attend a Giants game?
Factor in ticket cost,parking,snacks and merch...it's easy to spend well over $100 before you even sit down.
Now think about how much money the owners are getting?
That is a nice contract for him and a gamble for Nike IMO.

They made a workout shoe (Air Trainer) for Victor Cruz, so I'm sure Odell will get the same thing only with FAR more exposure. Bo Jackson had his own famous/successful line of Nike "training" sneakers and so did Deion Sanders to a lesser extent.

LOl, bingo.
LOl, bingo.
I for one am thrilled to have him and I think its fairly clear that he puts as much effort as anyone outside the qb to help his team win. The team says he works his ass off and you can see it on the field when he puts practice and film into the game. Unless you just think hes a selfish lazy hated primadonna?.....which is insane. Of course he has a big ego. The media here just isnt used to the Giants having a player this elite who is also a personality.
Maybe media people or fans should actually listen to the team and its players and take their word he is well liked and works as hard as anyone. Tired of these fans embarrassing themselves by saying trade him . youre lost
This.
I missed a voluntary walk through so I could make $25 mil. for my family and your pissed?
Yeah, ok.
Guess your not much of a fan.
