I don't see anything that Joe could possibly be upset at. He's got Pollack and a new line in front of him

Guaranteed money is paid out year to year, but pretty sure the full amount has to be placed in escrow at the time the contract is signed.

So if a contract has $50 million guaranteed the team would have to put that amount in an escrow account and still collect the interest from the $50 million until it has to be paid to the player.

Correct. It goes in escrow and is paid out to the player per the contract, but MB needs to have that money at singing to deposit.
