Florio is on now and others have similarly commented or posted about not being happy about this deal for Mahomes. I don't understand why? It is his business and he wants to do this for whatever reason. Brady and at the end I assume Manning played for less to be on a better team. Between him and his dad there will be no fundraisers for the Mahomes family.

Yeah, nobody had a gun to Mahomes' head and forced him to sign this deal.

Signed for Teddy Bridgewater money and gave the Chiefs 9 option years.

If he retired tomorrow it would be a good extension.

I don't think it's really noteworthy either way. They wanted to give him the label of "Highest paid athlete in sports history" even though it's meaningless. Literally whenever he wants Mahomes can demand a restructure/extension and KC will do whatever he wants if he doesn't decline. Makes sense for both sides imo.

Mahomes has to play out the last 2 years of his rookie deal. The first year of this new contract is about $50M.

Correct, and even his fifth year option is a ludicrous bargain. This isn't a bad deal for either side at all, its all about each side committing to one another. Restructures are a yearly occurrence in the NFL, anyone worried that Mahomes wont get paid enough is being deliberately obtuse.

I wouldn't give him long-term money.

Well that's dumb.

Rumor is Watson only wants a 3 year extension. If I was him I would just demand a trade or they fire Bill OB and wouldnt report to camp until one of those things happened.

I think Watson is overrated. I would kill to have Mahomes for 12 years.

I don't know about overrated, but his knees are already shot and he is 24. Still much better than Mitch, but I do not foresee a long career.

Let me know when Mahomes gets kicked in the face and still throws a TD on the same play

Mahomes will probably no look it with a smile. He's Brett Favre 2.0.

He really is. Not quite as strong of arm but better overall because he's a little black

Sounds like Mahomes didn't want to gut them. He'll make more money on endorsements than the NFL money. I like it, be like Brady and take less and win more.


Don't pretty much all the greatest players ever do this early in their careers ? Jordan and LeBron did it

I know everybody on this board thinks he sucks but the Lamar contract will be very interesting to see if he has a similar season to last year.

Don't we have some $$ on this? I've lost track of all of our bets.

We have $100 on who finishes higher in the MVP race this year between Lamar and Mahomes. You have Pat.
