Life comes at you fast

I couldn't figure out how cutting "Chosen Anderson" could save a team $12M in cap space. I must have missed the name change...

Falcons signed RG Chris Lindstrom to a five-year, $105 million contract extension.​

First reported by ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, Lindstrom will remain in Atlanta under what's being called a "mega extension". The Falcons made Lindstrom the 14th overall pick of the 2019 and will retain him through the 2028 season. A 2022 Pro Bowler and Second-team All-Pro, Lindstrom was set to play 2023 under his fifth-year rookie option

I'm guessing there must be some very big numbers late in the contract that he's not likely to get.

You think?
Guaranteed money remains everything.

Ask Sir Watson
Honestly I didn't even know who the guy was. $20M per year for a G, (which isn't a position many value highly), seems a bit off the wall to me. I was surprised to hear Ramsey get $20M per year at CB. Maybe I shouldn't given how CBs are valued. Hard to imagine a team getting value for money at $20M for a G compared to an average starting G. On a 6 year deal only the 1st 3 years at most are going to be guaranteed. Sounds like the headline sucker-punched me. :D

It's bat shit crazy and this signing may not make to top five jaw drop deals when FA is over.

Lindstrom's PFF grade was a gaudy 95.0 last year. He earned a big pay day but Im not sure that the Falcons are going to be winning games because of that contract.

Maybe he falls off a cliff. I'm not counting on it, because for as much of a loud mouth he is, the guy is a professional and keeps himself in great shape.
I thought he would have fallen off already to be honest but dude is arguably still the best center in football. He blew a big protection in the Super Bowl. And a credit to him, the only reason I know that is because he owned it. On the only drive of the 2nd half when the Birds had to punt, Spags brought a 6 man pressure. He made the wrong line call and the edge LB came clean.
