Panthers vs. Bears Running Game Day Commentary

ok,new rule,you can only start the running thread if you are within the charlotte city limits

 

4 million next year. Then 6 every year after.

We have paid him 10 so far, 6 prorated. So their is 6 million extra in incentives and/or roster bonuses.

 

That's only counting base salary. His bases are 4.785 million next year, 6.4 million in '07, 6.19 million in '08, and 5.825 million in '09. That's $19.17 million of the $38 million extension, therefore leaving $18.83 million in bonuses and incentives. Apparently $12 million was an upfront signing bonus, leaving the remainder as incentives and roster bonuses that kicked in this season if the information I found is correct. So assuming the online reports of the contract aren't way off, he should end up with a cap number of around 8.9 million next season, 10.5 million in 2007, and 10 million in 2008.

 

I think only 6 million was prorated, 12 million was the total guaranteed bonus amount. I think he got one this spring.

But yeah, their's an extra six that's out there.
