I've Got Something to Say

(10-21-2015, 03:38 PM)djs7685 Wrote: I've been considered very critical of Andy, but I think his contract was one of the smartest things the Bengals FO has done in a long time. Let's be honest, even for an "average quarterback" as most of us had him labeled, having him retained for cap hits under $10 million per year for the first couple of years is excellent financially. You don't see any QBs with long term extensions with that type of cap relief unless the numbers skyrocket later in the deal. Andy's deal doesn't even hit $20 million in any of the years unless he reaches the Super Bowl, then he would be at almost exactly $20 million in the year 2020. What a great deal that is. Other than 2020, none of the other years can even hit $20 million even if he hits every escalator.

The only thing I was ever worried about was that even if Andy played poorly, I didn't think the organization would have cut him even with the "outs" the contract has (after 2015/2016 or later of course, I didn't call for him to be cut last offseason). That was my only concern, but with the way the kid is playing, it doesn't look like I have to worry about that now!

The only touch and go thing will be is that if Andy continues this tear and it is indeed the new(next step) Dalton then the team has to rework that deal.
Andy seems to be one of the biggest team awww shucks guys ever but if ANYONE on this planet thinks being the 20th top paid QB in the league would work for him is nuts.

I fully expect the Bengals to rework the deal if it comes to it and give Andy what he is worth while still keeping all cap issues under control.
