Jacksonville Jaguar Arik Armstead-DT Thread

Maybe they called around the league and found out there weren't any teams willing to do that. I'm sure that the 2020 salary is less than the rest of the contract. There will be some guaranteed money and probably some incentives like sacks and pro bowl. Those are fairly common for D linemen.

Gonna be hard to resign Buckner...

meh. not bad. I hope he's not a one hit wonder. If only dee ford can restructure his contract and get healthy...

The slot he was drafted in suggests he wasnt.

Lmao
"Draft slot" matters! Since when!
Wow

You really think the slot you are drafted in has a 0% effect on your next contract,...100% of the time???

What cave do you reside in?

Why?

In Paraag we trust, AA had a great season and deserved to be paid

No I don't. I've seen it go different directions thru the many years I've paid attention to football.
You need to get out more dude and educate yourself before making comments like that..

You actually answering the question you were asked would be a great start to this education.

(I think you recognize the silliness and will dodge it)

Do you really believe that the moment a guy's contract is set to expire...your investment-made simply rounds off to zero and you see him as any other free agent?

There are TONS of examples of disappointments getting favorable 2nd contracts. Some proved to be good...some were wastes. But it happens.

This is not the way business in any facet works.

In this case... both sides in all likelihood want to give each other a break. The 49ers dont want to lose their good risks, still-young investment (advantage Arik), and Arik doesnt want to uproot from a place he loves and is comfortable with (advantage 49ers).

In the short term, both sides win.

Just wait to see what the oft-injured Jadaveon Clowney commands on the market. Then try to come back here and convince everyone it has nothing to do with his high billing out of college.

Not saying they are but in case some people are thinking why the hell aren't we active in free agency, we are. Resigning our own is all. It's the best move really if you think about it. These guys are already in the system for three years, what outsiders do you bring in who are better.

Agreed. He's actually been pretty solid last two years now so yeah, it's good to have him part of our team still.

LET'S

Maybe he AND Kittle, unless they wait to the cap goes up again.

Good deal. First of a handful of dominoes to fall.

Prediction: Paraag gets them both locked up.

I was wrong. Dead wrong. I thought the team would let Armstead walk. I really did. Did not think they could afford to pay him what he wanted.

Shows just what I know about football. Which amounts to jack squat.
