Chiefs Orlando Brown Projected Contract 6 year $145 mil - Page 61

So there's an article on NFL network saying that Orlando Brown is expected to sign for 6 years $145 mil.

That comes to $24.16 mil/yr and makes him the highest paid offensive lineman in football. It also would give him the 19th highest salary per year in the NFL

How would you feel if that is the contract he ended up signing?

I'm fine with it. He is a top 5 LT and he's only 26 next season. A young great LT is a guy you can't let leave.

That's pretty dumb. GOod job.

You might want to check your info again bc the starting LT during like 95% of that timeframe was either Eric Fisher and Orlando Brown Jr

During the time of Cam Erving....Mahomes suffered a high ankle sprain and IIRC, a knee injury.

So yeah.

BWillie is such a buttfucking moron.

Again, when you look at the company of that side of the argument, it's pretty telling.

If Orlando wants to break the bank, after a good 1st year into his contract he'll just be good enough to get by as a pass blocker which is very average.

If he takes a team friendly deal, then I'll feel better about the signing and his ambition.

BTW, the butthurt among posters is telling. They resort to name calling and dinegration because there's alot of truth that OBJ is just monetary centric.

What's your team friendly deal? Let's get some numbers in this bitch.

You hate the proposed contract in the OP. We get it. Tell me the most you're willing to pay for OBJ.

Yeah, I definitely see a 26 year old pro-bowl LT who's been tagged taking a "team friendly deal".

Anything under or just over 40 million guaranteed money including signing bonus.

I'd say a 5 year deal with a base of 16 million

That would be fair considering cap escalation in upcoming years

Lolololol

Dude, go home you’re drunk.

You know what a “team friendly deal” is in 2022?

A top of the current market AAV for 6 years.

Literally, THATS a team friendly deal.

Not going over 5 years including a trade clause

You think Orlando Brown, a 3 time pro bowl tackle (made PB from both sides of line in multiple systems) is going to sign a 4-5 year deal for essentially pennies? He wants -and probably deserves- to be the highest paid OT in the game for a short amount of time till the next guy is. That’s just how this works.

You used to pay attention a lot better.
[Reply]

You need to recalibrate market value in your mind.

$16M AAV would be such a team-friendly deal that agent would be pilloried by his peers and never negotiate another deal.

$16M AAV isn’t even what you can get an average-at best guy for these days.

He's an elite run blocker I won't argue that but his passblocking another story.

I'm not going to give OBJ a blank check even if he thinks he's a Franchise Tackle
[Reply]

You do realize the franchise tag pays him $16.6 million right? So why would he sign a deal for less money than the tag?

Some of you guys just don’t get that the LT position is actually not paid that much relative to other positions at the moment.

According to over the cap Orlando Brown He’s contract wouldn’t be a top 10 contract for non-QB’s in the entire league.
