Pegulas are cheap

[YardRat]

Damn...about 600k per more than the transition, right?

[SpikedLemonade]

OK.

I hope they know what they are doing.

A little over $7.5M per year and $20M guaranteed is a lot of money for TE who has not dominated.

Yup.

[elltrain22]

Hell yeah!! Love it

[X-Era]

So the Fins will do one of two things:

Take that deal and screw us over... meaning they planted the reports that they wont match and have moved on

Let him come to us and save face by saying they dont think hes worth it

Way to be there with a link... Good job!

The hillarious part is that a non-household name TE has now become a major battle ground between rivals... LOL

Offer Sheet from Bills

Tuesday, March 17

Vic Carucci of The Buffalo News reported Clay signed an offer sheet from the Bills, which the Dolphins have five days to match. Carruci reported the offer sheet is for five years and $38 million, with $20 million guaranteed.
NFL.com's Michael Silver reported the Dolphins' final offer to Clay was for $27 million over the next four years, with under $15 million guaranteed.

[SpikedLemonade]

The Fish will not match that, but over $12M per year for the 1st 2 years is ridiculous for a TE of Clay's talent.

I understand the gamesmanship however I wonder if the Bills got too involved in the game here.

[Yasgur's Farm]

That's gotta mean like $18.5M cap hit in 2016... Just what the Fins can't absorb with the Suh hit North of $20M that same year.

[YardRat]

merged

[DraftBoy]

Well what's done is done but that's a lot of money for a TE who has never been a game changer.

I love Clay's versatility but that's a lot of money.

[SpikedLemonade]

@NEPD_Loyko: Over the next two seasons Rob Gronkowski will make 15.2 million. Or 9 million less than Charles Clay. There is a reason why #Patriots win.

[YardRat]

Uggh

[jpdex12]

don't even ***** about this you negative a-holes. OBD is trying like hell to make a winner before the season even starts.

Yikes. I would be pissed if this is the reason Dareus, Gilmore or Glenn walks next season.

Publicly agree with everything except "a-holes"... Privately? I'd consider it.
