$40-plus million a year - curious what the annual cap hit is gonna be. Looks like $120 guaranteed. Also hearing he's extending Bradford to the same deal. Ok, that's a joke.JS extends JSN
JS extends JSN
Schefter just reported JSN signed $168 million dollar extension. Not seeing it reported anywhere else but I got an ESPN alert so it's gotta be true, right? $40-plus million a year - curious what the annual cap hit is gonna be. Looks like $120 guaranteed. Also hearing he's extending Bradford to the same deal. Ok, that's a joke.

Re: JS extends JSN
I'd call that making a statement, JSN gets exactly what he was asking for, the highest paid NFL WR.
I was thinking the other day about Shaheed and Walker and whatever. It occurred to me the guy being left out was Darnold. He's extension is coming due next season. He's not coming cheap, that's been factored in to this plan as well
What this is about are explosive plays. They are the homeruns of NFL offenses, you scheme for them and you pay for them. I looked at the chiefs. My analysis is ridiculously simple but they really don't have squat invested in WRs. They also seemed to have been fairly mediocre generating explosive plays. I feel I can see the reasoning for signing Walker. An attempt to generate explosive plays
The seahawks on the other hand have been good at generating explosive plays. Walker was a big part of that but they decided to move on from him. But that doesn't mean they aren't willing to invest big-time in explosive play generators. What's interesting about it is it being WRs instead of RBs. Again, there's reasons for that terms of ability to stay on the field or whatever
My point is, follow the money. I'll be surprised with the money they are going to be investing in JSN, Shaheed and Darnold that the offense continues to be a 50/50 spit. We shall see but that really doesn't even make sense to me at this point

Re: JS extends JSN
Interesting, last season all the experts figured it naturally make sense to extend Geno and DK but JS didn't do that. He zigged when they thought he should zag. He sure as heck stepped up to the plate this time didn't he. That's what I really admire about the guy. Not that he's always right, but he's got the balls to deal with either situation decisively
