Rodgers Coming Extension

[red]

Am I entirely missing something here? How is this $30M/year new money and $28.2 average? The guaranteed money is $94 over 4 years, or 23.6/year, and the back end numbers are low, not inflated, the highest being $28m in 2023, which is likely very underpaid by that time.

This looks to me like a Brady-like deal.

there may be a yearly 2 million dollar roster bonus that you're missing

but i agree, the numbers still don't add up to 30 million a year. something is still missing from spotrac and overthecap

Red agrees with me on a day I had beer with breakfast. Go figure.

i agreed with guiness the day i've spent half of, sitting on the can shitting my brains out

i think where we're getting messed up is that its a 5 year 150 million dollar extention, and they keep saying its 30 million per year, which is wrong

its a 5 year extension. buts its 150 million in new money over 6 years

so to find out how much he makes per year, you can't just go 150 divided by 5

you have to do the total value over 6 years and divide it by 6

so by my math, based on spotracs numbers, i get 171.65 million made over the 6 years of the deal

which comes out to 28.6 million a year on average

[red]

ans since i'm doing numbers

all that means that he will get about 55 million this year

13.5 million next year

22.5 in 2020

25 million in 2021

about 25 in 2022

and 30 million in 2023 IF they keep him. they can cut him with no penalty after 2022

now, that poor disrespected underpaid a-rod? he will make 20.5 million this year, unless he signs a new deal

Imagine you have a talent that is extremely marketable and you’re one o father top 3 people in the world at your chosen profession. Bob in th next office makes ~50% more money than you because he just got to the company. You’re better at making your widgets than Bob by everyone’s accounts.

Should you not go for at least as much compensation as Bob or should you, for the good of the company, just be happy watching Bob get more money than you for doing an inferior job? IMO fuck Bob, I’m getting more than him.

bob got his big bonus all qbs get every 4 or 5 years (signing bonus)

so you go in because bob got his big bonus, and demand even more

so next year when its time for jim to get his big bonus, you're gonna storm back in there and demand another 50 million dollar signing bonus, just so you are still the highest paid?

and the year later when its time for jose to get a bonus, you're gonna demand another?

There are Rodgers ads for Gordie Boucher (in Madison its BOO-chey, its Green Bay at one time, it was BUTCH-er) everywhere. It might already be happening.

I must be suffering some kind of memory lapse. He isn't advertising Boucher. He is advertising Bergstrom.

Depends on the terms of the bonus. If it ups the annual salary, you bet.

I can't wait to see how this plays out.

If someone of lesser ability than me is getting 50% more, you’re fucking right I am.

but these aren't a series of one-year deals to be one-upped annually. it's just a timing thing. Rodgers signed his deal and should live with it at least another year (imo) especially since he's coming off a year when his shoulder was screwed back together. if he was 29 or 30 i might feel differently too.

QB is the one position to routinely get a new deal 2 years in advance, to avoid the game of chicken that is a final year contract and the franchise tag.

Gutekunst is talking about it because they think he will survive playing until he is 39. Otherwise, this is a completely different conversation.

No way he plays until 39 IF he keeps getting sacked at the rate he does in GB. I also don't think he hasthe fire in his belly like Brady. He just seems ho hum a lot of the time.
