Several players earn escalators due to great play this year

The link says it is about Jonathan Stewart news but it also mentions several players that got escalators based on excellent play.

Stewart had a base salary of 1.74 million which grew to 2.74 million as a result of an escalator in his contract for hitting several performance marks.

Thomas Davis tripled his base salary from $700,000 to 2.2 million. Imagine if he played all year.

Brayton increased his base salary from 1.8 to 2.1 million.

If I read this correctly it sounds like those escalators put our salary cap for 2009 over the top. So Diggs getting extended actually reduced his 2009 cap hit so we could stay under the cap with those increases. I think Pepper's 1.5 million was already included in bonuses likely to be earned and part of the cap. I wondered why they extended Diggs at this point for cap releif when there isn't going to be a cap in 2010.

    • I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50. 
    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
