Coach Tuesday Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 Smoot signed with the Vikings for something like: 6 years, $35 million, with a $10.5 million signing bonus. This seems about right for what Clements' contract will look like, and I think it's time we pulled the trigger before the CB market gets even more inflated. If you structure the contract properly, the cap hit for the first few years should be around $3-$5 million per, plenty reasonable for an elite corner (arguably the most consistent cover corner in the NFL last year). If his skills haven't deteriorated by year 3, you restructure and extend again; if not, you draft his replacement and cut him. Let's get this done.
Navy Chief Navy Pride Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 Agreed---with the prices going up for corners now this deal is a must do ASAP. Pay the man TD!!!
