Default Re: NE Patriots FA and Draft (ie offseason) thread

Years 1-6 are about $3m each, totaling $18m. Year 7 is $20m. This 7th year is NOT guaranteed, but would have to be guaranteed by Miami if they matched the deal. This is the 'poison pill' which is still allowed in the NFL for unknown reasons. but hey, those are the current rules.

edit: it might actually be years 1-5 are about $3m each, and years 6 and 7 are $10m each. the effect is about the same.

I got it. That makes a lot more sense. The Phins would have to be stupid to even consider. Not bad for the Pats though. Welker is a decent receiver and return guy, and he's just fearless in the slot.
