Spotrac's Greg Hardy Contract Forecast(Bigger than CJ'S deal)


panther4life

Recommended Posts

They did some research and compared the production(before they signed)and  the contracts of Carlos Dunlap, CJ, Mario Williams, and Chris Long's deals to come up with this absurd prediction.
 
 
"Spotrac's Prediction: 6 years, $82,108,329
  •  Average annual salary: $13,684,721
  •  Guaranteed: $28,335,373 (34.5%)"

 

 

Here's a link to the article and research they did to come up with their figure http://www.spotrac.com/premium/research/nfl/contract-forecast-greg-hardy-370/

Whatever it takes to keep him here and not kill the cap is fine with me. A lot of players want the total contract value number to be big, but the cap hit is usually no where near that number.

 

He's becoming a premier edge rusher in a passing league, keeping him here has got to be a priority.

 

I am hoping signing him early gets us a discount.

the reason you sign him before this year is to avoid the crazy price tag he would get on the open market.

Still sticking with 5 years 30 million

He also only has produced one year....always the Albert Haynesworth risk. Assuming one year on books is what you get in the future. We already gambled with CJ....this is a double down and going right back with the same bet.

That is if those figures are what goes down

    • If we don't go OT, we will regret it.  What bothers me?  Are we going to get a starting-caliber OT at 19?  I think the draft is solid at OT, and the more I read up and watch video, the more I watch Lomu, the more I want him.   I see Freeling as a RT who needs some work in run blocking (since we need to run first, maybe not a good fit) and I see Proctor ending up as a Guard.  After Lomu (assuming Mouigia and fanu are gone), I think we wait until round 2.  In round 2, there are about 3-4 I like (Zuhn--good pass blocker and VERY underrated right now; Tiernan is a very good pass blocker as is Miller from Clemson, but both are not good in the run game.  Max Ixxxxx from Ariz St is impressive too---technically, there is not a of difference in these second tier guys--good in pass pro, need work in the run game.   If we wait until round 2 for an OT, we probably need to sign Nijman and start him early.   I almost think this is what we should do if Lomu is gone.  There is a big dropoff after him, imo, and I think we'd get better value if a stud ILB or edge is there.  Someone like TJ Parker Clemson makes sense. If Lomu is gone, trading back might be the play.  
    • And what is x gunna help with except show him what not to do. Plus for the first year and a half he was just an obstacle 
    • I understand that some people want WR. I am solidly against using yet another high pick there. Coker is pretty good and we used No picks on him.  What I think we really need at WR is a little bit of a Smitty lite. It is ridiculous to say let’s get a Smitty because you just can’t do that, but someone not tall and long striding but more in his mold. I think we’d have a pretty well rounded group.    Looking at tackle, with replacing Moton looming, it just seems like the no brainer.  You fill in Icky short term. Depending on how he recovers, and how the new guy plays, you go from there. A tackle at 19 is most likely either a LOT, a ROT, or a big talented guard, at worst. We will need all three in the next couple of years.  I would love to have a stud ILB be there at 19 but the OL is the responsible thing to do I believe.
