Willis to get paid
WILLIS TO GET PAID: According to Pro Football Talk, the Ravens are close to an agreement on a contract extension with Willis McGahee that will make him one of the highest paid running backs in the NFL! It's reportedly a 7-year $40M deal which includes a $7.5M signing bonus, an option bonus of $6M and a second option bonus of $1.5M. It averages $5.73M a year. LaDainian Tomlinson is due to make $5.75M in base salary in 2008.
LT money?! Are you kidding me?! This guy was 25th in total yards last year among running backs. The 25th running back!
This is just further proof that there's no way McGahee could have, or wanted to be re-signed by Buffalo. It's better that they got some value in return for him instead of winding up with nothing next year in light of the money he will reportedly land with the Ravens.
Baltimore just de-valued their trade by throwing way too much money at him.
