The demand for Law threads being insatiable,
here is your chance to record how much you would be willing to pay Ty
for a single season.

2 million base salary with a 2 million singing bonus and lots of incentives that could escalate it to 6.5 million.

I would like to see the Jets pony up big money for him. I don't think he is as good as stat-people think he is, and would rather not see him on the Pats.

Only problem with that is with him on their team, they will tank again and get the #4 pick in the 2007 draft. Sooner or later they will draft a good player. They already drafted a QB better than Noodle Arm. Law may help them get an excellent RB to replace CuMar.

For me, I say slap him in the face.

Offer him a three year, 12 million dollar contract, with 6 mil guaranteed.

It depends.
If we are tight against the cap, then I have a different answer than if we have cap room.
We do have cap room, and quite a bit to use on FA(s). Who else would you use it on?
We have rookies to sign that wont cost much, players to extend that will cost some, but far from all we have available.

IMO, Law is the best player out there to sign.

The second consideration is long term cap room. I will ASSUME we will have less room down the road than we do right now (that partially explains why we haven't spent so heavily) and would go low on signing bonus, (to prevent cap hits if he doesnt survive the contract) and a higher first year salary. I would add ROSTER BONUSSES each year including this one.

I think realistically it takes 3 yr 12mill to sign him.

I want no more than 3mill to be signing bonus.
I would split the salaries (9mill over 3 yrs) equally into roster bonuses and salary. (the roster bonus gives us a decision point, and is not amortized)

2006 1mill/1mill salary/roster bonus
2007 1.5mill/1.5mill
2008 2mill/2mil

Cap cost to us is 3mill, 4mill, 5mill
Law recieves 5/3/4

Hah! Good one Edzo.

I voted 3 mill but this poll is too simplistic. Do you mean including signing bonus, incentives etc.
I think he should get a 3mill base pay with a decent signing bonus, not too extravagant, though.
Of course a healthy dose of incentives to keep his motivation going should be included.
This is only because of Ty's history with us, he deserves to retire here. Stinging comments about BB aside. Hey, if BB can overlook it, who am I?
I am concerned about his health. Between reports about his weight gain and I'm still not clear about the status of his ankle.
I wonder how effective he'll really be.
In BB I trust!

9 people have picked "6 million"?? Are the Postons posters to this site?

Ty has apparently created 8 other aliases here to go along with his "LAW IN ORDER" nick.

Really curious who picked 6 million!

Don't be shy, just plead your case
