i still say $60m is too much with many other positions to fill. Not till the next contract. If worthy.
I'm not sure why you care about the 2024 cap when a possible Purdy extension this offseason would be on the 2025 cap.
Extension AAV vs first year unadjusted cap
- Dak - 2024 - 60M/255.4M = 23.49%.
- Jimmy - 2018 - 27.5M/177.2M = 15.52%
- Brock (60M) - 2025 - 60M/273.3M = 21.95%
- Burrow (highest) - 2023 - 55M/224.8M = 24.47%
Total contract value vs Total unadjusted cap over contract (~7% growth year-to-year for future years)
- Dak - 2024-28 - 269M/1.469B = 18.32%
- Jimmy - 2018-22 - 137.5/954.3M = 14.41%
- Brock @ 300M/5 ext - 2025-30 - 305.2M/1.955B = 15.61%
- Brock @ 240M/4 ext - 2025-29 - 245.2M/1.571B = 15.60%
- Lamar (highest) - 2023-27 - 260M/1.359B = 19.14%
Should probably mention Mahomes and the Chiefs. They restructured his cash flow in 2023, moving 43.3M from 2027-31 to 2023-26. Just playing with the numbers, Mahomes will make at least 327.9M total cash from 2020-26 (16.84% of 1.947B). 300.3M of that was new money from the extension, putting his extension AAV through 2026 at 50.05M (25.25% of the 2020 cap of 198.2M). In 2027, Mahomes will have 209M/5 remaining on his current deal, dragging down his extension AAV back to the original 45M. He'll likely get a new contract around then.
edit - The media deal the league currently has with networks goes through 2033, but there is a league option to terminate the deal in 2029. It's expected the league will opt out and the early 2030s will see another boom to the salary cap.
