12 mil guaranteed more than DJ....what a great deal for us. 

DJ could’ve gotten more on the open market no doubt.  I’m glad he stayed here, DJ is such an antithesis in personality when compared to your typical great WR.  But Scary Terry is a stud and it’s great to see the deserving guys get paid.

The market has changed pretty drastically since he signed that deal.

Yes, but mostly for the top-shelf guys in the tier of Adams and Hill. McLaurin's contract is closer to Moore's than theirs. Most, outside of some Panthers fans, would likely tell you that McLaurin is 9+ mil better than Moore (over three years).

McLaurin is a really good WR. I’m surprised he didn’t want to get on a more stable franchise but money talks! 

Comfort does too.

Some guys are just happy where they are and don't necessarily need to be the highest paid player at their position or part of the hottest team in the league.

I'd guess that's probably true of DJ Moore as well.

Cool but contracts are not worth much in the NFL because they can be forced to be readdressed by either party. After AB anything could happen. Long gone are the days where teams have an iron grip outside of guaranteed money on the best players. Plus the Commies are pulling a full on WTF moves still lol. Hurneymagic lol

    • First off, my memory is faulty and so I should remember you. Anyways, welcome back. Having been around here since 2004/2005, I do have to say all these hot takes are not necessary new. I still very much remember all the constant complaints about Jake Delhomme. How he was too inaccurate, fumbled the ball too often, threw bad interceptions, and how Steve Smith deserved a better QB. How this franchise needed to replace Jake for someone better because he dragged everyone down. We even had names for Jake defenders; Blind Delhomme Jock Sniffers (BDJS). That one thread about Chris Weinke over Jake Delhomme because Weinke threw for 423 Yards but only scoring 13 points remains the worst hot takes I've ever seen around here. So to me, it feels like history repeating itself again and I don't feel like getting that much involved in flame wars like I used to. I am more of a sit back and see what the players/team does type of person. And even then, yes, there are so many moving parts that it's not as easy to pinpoint the core issues, especially when you're not inside the building and know every single detail.  And yes, I think even way back then, I hated how overvalued the QB position was and it hasn't gotten much better. It's to where my philosophy has shifted to where if you can't win a SB with a QB on their rookie contract, you might as well get another one. Otherwise, you have to give that QB so much money that the rest of the roster suffers and your window becomes quite narrow.  That's why I'm skeptical that Mahomes/Burrow/Jackson/Allen will win more than one or two SB's between them. None of them look as invisible as they did a few years ago and that's because their targets are much inferior and/or they are getting more roughed up behind a worse O-line.
    • Haha I was still off was thinking of mac jones he has done extremely well this year with basically no weopons as all the 49ers are hurt except for mcaffrey but he is playing slow this year for some reason.
