Am I reading this correctly? Please tell me I ****ed up and this is old information.

Eric Fisher gets paid the highest AAV of any LT by 2.5 mill once this part of the extension kicks in?

Rand Getlin has the breakdown on twitter, for some reason I can't get it to post here.

Smart deal. We can't sign Berry to a long term deal now, and frankly, it's smart not to sink outlandish money into the Saftey position IMO.

#KCChiefs give OL Eric Fisher $48M in new $$ on his 4-year extension, tacked on to 2 years he has left. Tied with Cordy Glenn & Tyron Smith

So, he got 22 million dollars today, if i'm reading that right. Thats not a bad day.

RealSNR 07-30-2016 12:32 PM

Yeeeeahh, I'm gonna go with Schefter on this one. No offense, Rand, but you're a ****ing nobody.

No way. We have talent that is waiting to bloom. The best part of not signing Berry longterm he has no choice but to take his game to the next level of which all of us thought we were getting when we drafted him but have only seen minimal at best flashes of this. He is now on display for sale for all 31 other NFL teams and it is in his best interest to win a SB this year soooooo he can get his big $$ elsewhere and not mess with our cap for the future.

A win-win for both parties, LITERALLY !!:D

Called this yesterday in the Training Camp thread...

Expensive but this opens up our options going forward. Likely lowers cap hit next year. Ascending player. It's an invaluable position.

RealSNR 07-30-2016 12:33 PM

Ah, so Schefter is including the salary from his rookie deal on top of the extension. So really it's 6 years at that amount of money.

Thats how I'm reading it.

So it's more 48 million, plus what he's already locked in for?

Simply Red 07-30-2016 12:35 PM

So long as Zombo is locked in, otherwise NOT COOL!

RealSNR 07-30-2016 12:35 PM

Okay, so now sportrac has the 15.75 mill/year thing as correct.

What is it? 4/48 or 4/63?
