I hear rumors a while back prior to the Jalen Hurts or Herbert deals that Burrow wanted an 8 year fully guaranteed contract at $25M/yr the thought was he wanted to ensure Chase could be resigned without question. 
 

this approach would open the door for Bosa. Bosa paired with Hendrickson is scary.

 

Could he ever consider that contract with what others have signed for recently? No idea. But the guy does so much for low income families between his foundation, food bank stuff, and now purchasing small family farms to help out those groups. It is possible I guess. his mother is a school principal still and see a lot of this struggle on a daily basis.
 

If he signs that deal and it paves the way for Bosa, they give him the key to the city.

I have often wondered what would happen if a top end franchise QB did that. Just said "$25m per, fully guaranteed will do me, no build a team around me."

 

I have to think the NFLPA would freak. But not sure there is much that could be done.

But wait everyone on WGR says the salary cap is imaginary. 

Cap is definitely real, however it can be easily manipulated for short term success.

 

Re structured contracts, extensions, void years, back loaded deals etc.

 

Always ways around it.

 

But… Eventually you got to pay haha

Would love it if Josh did that. I mean how many pistachios does he need?

Would be most hated player in the league by his union brothers, I’m sure like most human beings, he cares what those in his sphere think of him.

Brady always took way under market value while he was in NE.. never fully guaranteed but he left a LOT of money on the table so the team could build around him.

Bosa would have to want to sign with the team they trade him to in order for San Francisco to get a good return.

 

That would point to Miami.    

 

His dad was a first round bust for the Dolphins.......his uncle is Eric Kumerow the former Dolphins LB...........and Nick and Joey were raised in Miami.

 

That's home for the Bosa family.

I've come to hate you

Most hated? Why?

 

I think it should be the opposite. Other top end QBs might hate him, but all other players should love him.

If a QB signed for $20+ million under value, why would a GM and/or owner pay anyone else top end money? I think you would see contracts drop significantly if a top QB took a contract like that. Also, it’s not the players jobs to make the salary cap work, that’s up to the front office guys. Those guys are also paid a lot of money, make them earn their money as well

Maybe some contract would drop, but cap space remains the same. More players would profit from this imo.
