ESPN confirming their error, 2 years, 23 million, 15 million signing bonus and 19 mil guaranteed. KTAR was on the money.

Hmmm, John Clayton ESPN was stated as saying 2 years, 23 million, 12 guaranteed. Well at least the man is signed, the terms are what they are. We need to lock up Q now and give Edge his release. Be nice to keep them both though. Can you smell another SB run?


Clayton has it at 2 years 23 million 19 million guaranteed also.

well $19mil was want Warner wanted guaranteed anyways. they just tried to hide it by having $6mil guaranteed both years plus the 2009 salary.

So is it $15mil this year and $4mil next or all $19mil this year?

Basically the front office was bidding against themselves and just caved to Warner and his agent. Typical. There is no way Warner is worth that much, I would rather had him walk and see what he got elsewhere (which would have been nothing).

Guys dont go bonkers over this 19 mill gauranteed info. They are counting the first years base salary as already in his pockett. 15 mill signing bonus(which is the real true gauranteed amount) + 4 mill in base salary = 19 Mill. he will pockett the first season.

Thats if those amounts are real. The media and especially agents like to play very loosely with the word "gauranteed". It makes me made becuase what they say is gauranteed is not actually gauranteed but it sounds good to possible future players for the agent to try and sign.

It breaks down like this in its simplest form. If he can still play at a high level in year two this contract is perfect. If he cant play in year 2 we have 7.5 mill in dead cap space in 2010.
