we won't have to re-sign him. he'll be under contract for 2010 regardless. the option is if we decide to continue our relationship with him beyond that.

3/11/2006: Signed a five-year, $23 million contract. The deal includes $8 million guaranteed. If Kemoeatu's 2010 option bonus is not exercised, his contract will expire after the 2010 season.

2009: $2 million (+ $1.9 million in guaranteed bonuses),

2010: $750,000 (+ $9.3 million option bonus due in March),

2011: $1.485 million (Voidable Years),

2012: $2.115 million,

2013: $2.745 million,

2014: $3.375 million,

2015: Free Agent

linkif we don't exercise the option then we are on the hook for $750k one way or the other. might as well keep him around and see if he recovers.

He has a $9.3 million option bonus due in early March which would extend his contract through 2014, but no one anticipated that ever being picked up. It was written into his deal last offseason to save some salary cap room. When that tab isn’t picked up (according to contract documents obtained by The Herald), he’ll be due a $1.7 million non-exercise bonus and a base salary of $2.6 million for next season, essentially what he’d have made before...

Well I think depending on how good a push he can get from that injury he has. That will tell us wheather he will stay are not. It all comes down to how much push up from he can get on the sleds in mini camp and all. I hope he has healed fine to where he can come back and play again this coming year. But it is a concern at this point to wheather are not that injury is going to heal properly to allow him to keep doing his job up front on sundays.

Are you asking if he is resigned (as in, next year) will they have to pay that bonus?

I think he gets cut before he's owed the roster bonus if he hasn't made some serious improvement with his recovery from the injury. If the do cut him, I doubt they would sign him back after that.

Any chance of a trade?

Most of the tagged guys ended up being DT's especially from 3-4 defenses.

Not many left out there in the FA pool.

I think if Kemo was not coming off injury then a low pick.But no team going to give us anything for him now.

i'd be surprised if we could re-sign him. there are a lot of teams that want/need a big NT. as bad as we think he might be, he's still going to be attractive to someone. he isn't some scrub. he's a big body that can clog up the middle. that makes life easier for a lot of other players. he'll be an attractive option for quite a few teams.

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
