So just using numbers picked for ease of conversation... even if pick 16, 17, and 18 all have 70% of their contract as a signing bonus... if 16 and 18 get 4/5 of that 70% within 3 days of signing and then the other 1/5 Week 1 of the regular season, they are getting more money/a better deal than if 17 gets 1/2 of that 70% within 3 days of signing and then the other 1/2 on December 31st.
Hard to know the real truth on the contract. This time I tend to side with Management. I don’t think they dig in like this if they were different than the other teams. I hear it is indeed over a character clause.
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
