That extension was a bust. He made 20 mill for one catch and -4 yards

Amazing how he got that deal.  He was out completely in 2017.

Good player but how do you give an extension like that to a player who’s able to go 50% of the time.

I went to do some research - and man they are bad at drafting WRs.

Bust for who (not Quincy or his agent :)).. if I were a WR I would have Quincy's agent on speed dial .. and if I were Quincy I would wash the agent's car once per month for free for life .. just to show my appreciation. His game did not warrant that kind of a contract at all.

That game is specifically called out in his Wikipedia pro career bio. It might have been Stephon’s most forgettable appearance.

I thought it was gilmore

[DCofNC]

Man, that’s a shame for him, he was on a promising trajectory and those injuries just destroyed it.  Too bad.

Quincy was a good player.  If his career is over, it is because of injury issues.  You don't want to mess with vertebrae problems in your neck.  It's a good way to end up as a quadriplegic.

This was around the time some on the board were calling Rex's defense "antiquated" and others were vehemently disagreeing and pointing out what a lazy and terrible player Gilmore had become and how things would improve once Reggie Ragland and Adolphus Washington got more experience.

He made about 15 million dollars in his career - less taxes and 401k.  Probably gets free care for his injury for as long as he needs it.  Played long enough to get a pension once he hits 55, and if he's smart he took advantage of the 401k match that they do.  Without even getting into wealth management he should be set up to be OK.

Hopefully the trend continues because they took Mims in the 2nd.

After watching that game my buddy picked him up in fantasy. 

 

We both thought they could potentially have a star on their hands.
