Miami Dolphins sign QB Ryan Tannehill to extension

[KintnerBoy]

If he didn't already have a hot wife, he sure would now.

He can have a old ugly husband if he'd have me.

[Brooklyn Bully]

Holy cow. Does he even have a playoff appearance?

Oh, and lol at the fans here who don't want Cam to get that kind of money because "reasons".

 

Pretty sure we'd all be FINE with Cam getting that. People don't think Cam deserves being the highest paid player in the NFL, which is what others on this board are fine with.

I disagree that's the way it is. You hear about Shula, Lombardi and Schottenheimer, etc as winningest coaches and whathaveyou, you don't hear about QBs as much. I think it's one of the biggest myths ever, how people like to judge QBs based on team wins. Only ONE person on the sideline is responsible to and for every part of the team. That's the HC. QB only controls a part of a part of the game.

 

You might disagree.  You'll never hear the name Marino without a mention of him never winning a SB.  QBs are absolutely judged by championships and their record.  The former more so than the latter.  You never hear Barry Sanders knocked for his lack of a ring.

they must really want to keep that woman of his around.

 

 

 

can't say i blame them.

Somebody give her a burger and a pizza.

 

I'd give her something but it wouldn't be a burger or pizza.

Details are out. It's essentially a 2-year, $21.5m deal and then pay as you go:

 

Tannehill already was set to make $18.27M the next two years -- the final season of his rookie contract (2015) and a fifth-year option for 2016 that the Dolphins previously executed (that $16.2M option was guaranteed for injury only at this time). His new contract calls for $21.5M fully guaranteed at the time of signing (payable over those same two years), according to sources, so that is basically taking a two-year total that was currently only guaranteed for injury only and now making ifully guaranteed and sweetening the pot a little on the front end. The deal calls for $45M in total injury guarantees, but that is not a protection should he be released because of production or cap purposes before then.

 

By March of 2016 -- early in the 2016 league year -- Tannehill would have another $3.5M in guaranteed money triggered for the following season. As of today Miami already had his rights through 2016 if they want him ‎(via the 2015 base and the 2016 fifth-year option) so they aren't actually chipping away at additional years until the third year of this deal, and even then they are buying him in 2017 dollars at well below what the 2015 exclusive rights franchise tag was, much less what the 2017 QB franchise tag will be.
