Thread: Raiders Sign Carr to an absurd deal

  1. #1

    Default Raiders Sign Carr to an absurd deal

    http://www.rotoworld.com/headlines/n...K:topheadlines

    The deal is 5 years $125 million with a total of $70M guaranteed and $40M in fully guaranteed money.

    I think it's a bit early to be throwing that kind of money at a kid coming off of one good year and a major injury. Mack is due a deal soon, will they have enough to pay him after paying Carr?

    In today's NFL, it would be absurd not to give a young stud QB that kind of deal. 32 out of 32 teams would have done the same.

    That doesn't sound absurd at all.

    2015 was a good year. 2016 was an exceptional year.

    He's one of the best young up and comers. He's going to give us fits for years to come.
    He deserves it.

    I'd take him one our squad, no doubt. I do, however, hope that becomes an absurd contract for him, but appears to be market value at this point.

    He's easily the best QB in the game right now in terms of future value. This is not news.

    He was marginally better in 2016 than he was in 2015.

    Do you guys remember Dante Culpepper?

    Any quarterback contract is news.

    Yes, I also remember the fall season in Tennessee.

    They had no choice. The market dictates salary, not the play sadly. But I think he deserves "back pay" for getting us out from between the breads of a turd sandwich.
