Mitch[/color]]I don't think anyone thought that. But he did get the bonus over a 3 year period.

hopefully he isn't out in week #2

"According to papers filed with the NFL Players Association, Stafford reduced his base salary for 2011 from $9 million to $525,000, the minimum for players with two credited seasons."



Wow...

you think he just gave back 8+ million ??? lol

he just rolled it all into bonus money instead of base.....

No, I read the entire article. That's a lot of savings is the message I'm portraying.

thats why when he signed his contract , I said it was one of the smarter deals Lewand had ever done....left all kinds of room for future manuevering

The answer was +1..I'm giving it to someone else now since you didnt wanna answer the door.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Because we all want that karma, lol.

Seems like it, since everyojne always say "Oh man someones got it out for me, I've dropped 2 karma points since yesterday."...

BTW if it seems like I'm serious about this whole Karma thing, I'm not..it's funny to me too. I just enjoy ruffling feathers and acting like the karma police...think its kind of humerous.

I've given tsmith +2 so far today, but it looks like I'm outnumbered.

No, I just give +karma to anyone that's below zero....except Chico.

Sure hope Stafford earns every penny this year. Actually, I hope he produces so well he makes up for the past two years of being injured on top of that. Not blaming him for being injured, just saying in terms of the Lions bang for their buck.

I gotta admit I am gonna hold my breath every play he is even touched. Hill is good but we need Staff behind center for this team to take the next step.

We are about $1m under right now. The only team over is the Rams.

after there FA signings, Pitt is now about $8 Mill over the cap and they have to be under the cap by thursday...

 

[lions2011]

why people worry about another teams cap number baffles me....they'll be at the number when they need to be....it's easily done.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Every year every team are always under the cap.

consequence to their roster...Steelers are one of the smartest organizations in football...all it takes is flipping someones base into a bonus here and there.

come find me when they cut someone of relevance.
