Highest Paid Center in NFL

As long as he continues to ignore how an actual contract works. You will never get through to him.

He's trolling at this point. That fake ass email was the turning point.

I know, just trying to educated the educated .

Where’s Johnson’s 6 year 63 million, Brooks 5 year 40 million? Jenkins is at over 9, McLeon is over 8. Those aren’t correct at all

I didn't make it up. They are correct. I gave two ways as sorted by Spotrac: base salary and total cap hit. Look it up.

In agents minds I'm sure they only see 4 years because that's all they can negotiate and get paid for, but as per the CBA the Option HAS TO BE IN SAID CONTRACT.

Now of course you can try to explain how the CBA is wrong, but too bad is a Standing Legal Agreement.

Unbelievable. Just absolutely unbelievable.

Do you know that an option in a 4 year contract doesn’t make it 5.
You’re a little bitch. Got proven wrong and now you have to BS your way out. I can’t comprehend someone so insecure that even when an elite professional in the field tells you are wrong you still won’t accept it.

They are absolutely wrong. Go to overthecap. You telling me a guy who signed for 100 million makes less then a guy who signed for 36 million

Yep, you know more then super agents in the NFL. Bus Cook is a fucking moron and doesn’t get it either. One of the elite agents in the NFL is wrong and you are right.

The truth is if you didn’t attack me so much you’d admit you are wrong but you have to save face. Brilliant

 

[PhoenixEagles1]

The email isn’t real
You are wrong and everyone here knows it.

Yep it’s one big conspiracy. Do you know if you fold over paper money you can see the twin towers crashing down. That was another conspiracy too... right?

This is an easy A+ deal. Kelce is the best Center in the league (although I do hope Travis on the Boys recovers, hate to see someone end his career that way) and while $11M is high, it's a 1 year deal for a guy that's 32 (may be pushing a 1 year prove it larger contract since Centers can play longer in the league than most positions). In addition, the Eagles have durability concerns at QB so protecting Wentz (or Foles, or whoever) is a priority.... that feels ridiculous in saying since protecting any QB is a priority, but this is a position where money is well spent.

I'd potentially give Philly a lower grade for not convincing Kelce to lock up a longer term contract, but whatever. He's 32, still highly productive, and with Wentz on the cheap + looking to move Foles this doesn't impede any long term plans for the Eagles FO.

I would expect the Eagles to draft some potential replacement prospects in the mid rounds this year. They have an extra 4th/6th so maybe we'll see some move ups although this draft class is fairly weak for OLINE. That said, 2020 is fairly strong for OLINE so the Eagles may look to replace Kelce there.

Don't know why anyone would be bashing this move. It's a VERY clear positive move by the Eagles FO.

He was hinting at retirement and has been really underpaid. I guess they wanted to thank him with a little extra. About 4 years ago he was really struggling with big DTs and then worked on that part of his game. I remember a few years ago PFF ranked him 33rd and he had a major rebound

Da fuq are you mumbling about? The validity of that email say what? You’ve lost it Corky, beaten down like an old tire.

 

[handicappers]

PFF said the sky was brown so I emailed the CEO of the CBA and he emailed me back 17 minutes before I hit “send”.

Do you know the option give teams contract right now or 5 years.
Do you know the option has to be included in the contract.
Do you know the player and the team can only negotiate 4 years and the 5th year is set by the CBA.

Again only being allowed to negotiate 4 years doesnt mean it's a 4 year contract.

 

[Manster7588]

They are absolutely wrong. Go to overthecap. You telling me a guy who signed for 100 million makes less then a guy who signed for 36 million

It's easily possible. How long is each contract?

6 years each. 6 year 100 million, 6 year 36 million but somehow Kelce makes more then Cox. Johnson 6 year 63 million but Kelce makes more????

Spotrac is accurate. Again, I'm telling you based on certain criteria: Base salary and total cap hit by year. Those were the easiest things for me to sort by that seemed pertinent and for specific years, not total contract. I'm not talking about total contract. You mentioned specific years and him being like the 20th highest paid Eagle which didn't sound accurate so I looked them up

Yep, every single newspaper reporter and I mean EVERY are all wrong. I specifically ask an elite agent “Does the option make it a 5 year contract” and he says “No! It’s a 4 year contract”.
But again, EVERY reporter is wrong and people who have an elite reputation as an agent in the NFL is wrong but you Schmoopy and Handi are right.
I specifically asked him does the 5th year option make it a 5 year contract and he said “NO!”.

I looked it up on overthecap and he was like 13th. That fact remain is he has the 4th largest contract on our OLine alone... and still will with the extension.

I just looked it up. He was 5th in base contract but total money paid that year 10th.

I don't know what you mean by largest contract so it's hard to discuss. Guys that sign one or two year deals will obviously have smaller total contracts than guys that sign long term. But that's not apples to apples and can be misleading

 

[PhoenixEagles1]

I just looked it up. He was 5th in base contract but total money paid that year 10th.

And here’s why that’s incredibly misleading. Me and you sign one year deals. You get 2 million and no signing bonus and I get 100 million bonus and a 1 million salary. According to that you make more then me.

How many years do teams have contract rights before 1st round picks gain Free Agency?
