It's easy, and only takes a few moments.So, the Solder deal is looking more and more like a 2+2 deal as there is a $6M Roster bonus due in March of 2020. That $6M was part of the 35M "guaranteed". My guess is that his salary this year and next year are guaranteed and the difference is the "Signing bonus" if there is one..
The Devil is always in the details.
As I said, the devil is in the details.. and here is what Aaron Wilson is reporting (updating my numbers) :
62M over 4 years; $16M signing bonus,$34.8M gtd, salaries $5.9M (gtd), $12.9M (gtd), $9.9M, $9.9M;
So, he'll get 34.8M this year and next and then they are free to cut him at an $8M cap hit that they can spread over the final 2 years by declaring him a June 1st cut..
Patience...I thought it officially started today?
Either way we're missing out on a lot of top players.
Bedard says the Patriots offered $12 million a year. Makes sense that the Giants had to go well beyond that instead of only making him the highest paid tackle in the NFL (which was previously $13.25 million a year).
Why not just pay what he wants? There isn’t an obvious replacement and we need to protect Brady now more than ever. This is a big loss.

So a $14.6 million cap hit this season were the Pats to offer the same deal. Not viable.
we need that laughing with tears emoji addedI just hope that they don't trade Jamie Collins to the Browns.
If we paid him 16 mill, we’d have 4 mill in cap room..Why not just pay what he wants? There isn’t an obvious replacement and we need to protect Brady now more than ever. This is a big loss.
