Myles Garrett New Contract
In a surprising turn of events, Myles Garrett has signed a record deal with the Browns, paying him $160 million over 4 years with $123.5 million in guaranteed money and a no-trade clause.
I do not understand this from both sides. Garrett is basically guaranteeing that he will never win anything in his career. While the Browns are not cashing in on trading their star player during an important rebuilding period. They could have gotten a ton of draft picks to help them fully rebuild their team.
Davante Adams Joins the Rams
He joins the NFC contender on a 2 year deal for $46 million with $26 million guaranteed. This gives the Rams a great receiving core and replaces the gap Cooper Kupp’s departure will have.
Harold Landry to Pats
The contract is for 3 years $43.5 million, $26 million guaranteed. I like the deal, as it gives us a solid pass rusher that Mike Vrabel knows and likes.
Josh Allen Record Deal
Josh Allen had four years left on his current deal, but it gets ripped up to replace it with a six-year, $330 million contract that includes $250 million guaranteed. It is a good deal for both team and player, but sets a bad precendent if other guys on the Bills want to renegotiate before their deal is ending.
Seahawks Rebuilding
The Seahawks had some massive changes and appear to be in full on rebuilding mode. They released franchise great WR Tyler Lockett. They also traded Geno Smith to the Raiders for a third round pick. I think that deal works well for both teams.
Then they traded WR DK Metcalf to the Steelers for a 2nd round pick. The Steelers rewarded him with a 5 year deal for $150 million. While they did overpay for his contract, this gives the Steelers a much needed playmaker that they didn’t give up much draft capital for.
