There was an article about the Brown family a ccouple years ago that mentioned Paul Brown did alot of the contract negotiations I believe.

Pretty sure she also knows all the math very well. This is her job.

I think Katie deserves more cred than she gets on the contracts....

Or maybe Paul Brown Junior as Synric says who we never seem to talk about.

I wonder if she handles the bigger ones, and delegates a lot of the other ones to him (Stanley Morgan type deals).

Hanging out at Joe Brrr's house. Cool

Burrow and AFC champs, good culture, LSU players - a wonderful situation.

All the guarantees in first two years right?

OTC has a cap hit of $4.16 mil, spitrac $4.66 mil. Not a huge deal. Maybe differ on when they count bonuses (roster?), or just a typo.

We ever get an answer if he can opt out of his 3rd year?

We have him under contract through 2024.

Oh yeah. Sure wouldn't mind adding Justin Jefferson in a couple years too if we have to let Boyd go somewhere else.

Keep the LSU connection alive and kicking.

If that happens you're going to have about 120 - 140 million tied up into 4 players. Burrow, Chase, Higgins, Jefferson. Ain't happening.

Probably right. Just keep the OL intact and we can do without having the greatest weapons anyways.

You wouldn’t keep Higgins if they could get Jefferson.

After seeing Collin's deal and who we added vs who we subtracted, it seems like we could still afford someone like Gilmore. If he's already been signed, apologies.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.

Man no wonder LSU dominated that year. If you just moved that team up to the NFL, they'd be one of the best teams in the league. Certainly on offense, anyway.

They had some dudes on defense, too. Most notably Stingley, but also some 1st and 2nd rounders like Chaisson, Queen, Delpit, etc.

In all, $9M tied to incentives & the one-time base salary escalator.

Since his incentives (both playtime and Pro Bowl) are considered NLTBE in 2022, those aren't counted against this season's Cap

So no change to Collins' previously reported 2022 Cap Hit = $4,166,666
