Mahomes contract was restructured, he now makes 210m over the next 4 years, fully guaranteed. 

Unless whatever they did helped free up some cap room over the next couple of years, I'm actually surprised Mahomes wanted to do this.

He's one of the few players who make ungodly amounts of money in endorsement deals, just figured he'd have been fine taking a little less than the absolute max that he could, so he could have some more players around him.

Guys like Burrow, Hurts, Herbert, Lamar... while they all do well in endorsements, I'd bet good money that Mahomes dwarfs them with his.

He also strikes me as the guy who wants the legacy and to beat Brady's numbers.  Sacrificing 5-10 million a year when you're already making 40+ before endorsements seemed like something he'd do.  

Yea, just looked it up, in 2023 Mahomes will make $20 million in endorsements, only others above Burrow at $4 million are Dak, Wilson, and Rodgers at 13, 13, and 11 respectively.

No it moves money forward to the next 4 seasons from the backend of his original deal. His cap numbers the next 4 years hovers around 59-63m.

Halas Hall was raided by the FBI this morning after the Bears DC's house was raided last week. Explosive allegations coming out of it, I will not repeat the words as it's something I'll never type out in a computer. 

You think our franchise is a dumpster fire? Chicago has got that on lock so far this season.

This is bizarre. Evidently their HC was literally crying talking about the issue. What in the fug did this guy do???

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
