Latest big receiver payday - Terry McLaurin

[Mr. Scot]

It's been a good offseason to be an NFL wide receiver

This sounds like our own DJ Moore.

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

Moore about to ask for a raise.

I would. Couldn't blame him either.

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

I'd blame him. He signed a good deal, and I believe it's one very much in the scope of his relative market value.

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

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.

DJ isn’t going to ask for a raise lol.  Christian Kirk signed for $20M/year before DJ signed his deal, but Terry McLaurin making like $23M and some change is gonna change his mindset?  Come on

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).

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.

There was no way Hurney was gonna be outdone

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
