Seems good to me.

In advising its player reps on rookie pool, NFLPA projected Cam Newton would get $22M over 4 yrs and, another $14.3M in a 5th-year option...

But with that 5th yr being an avg of top 5 salaries at his position, it can only be an estimate for now. So they estimate $36.3 over 5 years

NFL.com reporting Newton's contract could be worth $36.3 over five years. which pales in comparison to Sam Bradford's $80 million last year.

A bunch of money, but nothing compared to what it was or the direction it was headed.

I don't know if the system will work, its still a rookie pool. Rookies can still negotiate a better deal. There's just a cap on the total amount of money that teams have to spend on Rookies. The big question is did owners and players limit option bonuses that rookies can get as that's what ruined the last rookie pool.

Rookies can not negotiate another deal, nor the team until the 3rd year of contract.

Wishing he was locked up longer and I still say it is not a positive but oh well.

If he is the real deal under the old rules he would be a bargain until the last year of the contract. If he ends up being the real deal now, he gets his 100 million dollars from somewhere and a 10 year deal at age 25 or 26 rather than still being under control for 3 more years by us.

    • lol well that kinda ended up working out in the end, even though I still don't have my jersey yet. Was supposed to ship by tomorrow this time, but just got another email saying it was delayed another 3 weeks and because it's been delayed so long, I had to tell them to keep the order or cancel it, but gave me a 25% off my next order as an apology. Well, my original fear came true and they are now selling the FUSE version (but still not the Blue unfortunately) before the one I ordered was ever shipped. But that's awesome, because I was able to use that coupon to order the FUSE instead and then cancelled the original order.  So I got the jersey I wanted for only $6.30 more than the crappier version costs, and it also says it will be shipped immediately and get here early next week, or 2 weeks before the other was now supposed to be shipped out.
    • I've watched this and think we are well underway.  Believe it or not, Bryce is a big part of this.  The way he bounced back with such grace.  And we've got a lot of young players who want to make their mark, Dave is giving them an opportunity.  I loved our draft.  I like the number of guys we brought in, and they will help build the culture we want under Dave.  We're getting closer, and I think we'll see more wins this year than most of the board. The right culture breeds winning, and winning builds the right culture.  Imho, it's coming.  
    • As others have said it's both. One creates the other. But it also takes time sometimes years. And there have been teams lately with new car smell coaching staffs that looked like they were putting it together quickly but things came crashing back down to Earth. Sustainability is the key. For that to happen the meddling of our owners has to stop and they cannot be tempted to return to their ways over any bump in the road either.
