silvermike Posted July 30, 2010 Posted July 30, 2010 I think he's going to be close, now. #8 and #11 have signed, so there's a clear ceiling ($8M/per) and a floor (~$5.5M/per). He'll likely get a contract somewhere around 5 years, $33M, about half in guarantees. I wouldn't be surprised to see it happen over the weekend.

However he was the number one RB and may figure that he should not be in the bracket between 8 and 10, so I wouldn't be surprised at a longer holdout. An interesting negotiation.

Although the one advantage of taking a luxury pick like Spiller is that we have much less pressure to get him under contract than if we had drafted a guy we expected to be a bookend left tackle.

Friday Night for a saturday camp or he will be pissing me off. Not really interested in He needs to get paid crap so save it . Just once I'd like to see the difference between the first offer and the final offer for these guys in ACTUAL dollars to see if th eholdout actually brings significant $$$.
CarolinaBill Posted July 30, 2010 Posted July 30, 2010 he'll sign a 5 yr 30 mil contract with about 20 in guarantees within the next 2 days.
