Thanks for 26 for reporting the guarantee money because I can’t stand when they report the contracts like most players will ever see that money. He is an amazing G but in a salary cap, that’s a lot for a position that isn’t really a make or break one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luxy312 Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 That's quite a contract for a guard. That has to be right up there with the highest paid in the NFL at that position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 I remember when people here scoffed at those who wanted to 'waste a pick' on a guard when David Decastro was drafted. Ask Leveon Bell how that draft pick worked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask Leveon Bell how that draft pick worked out. DD is a great G. But I’d argued that having a HOF qb and wr are major factors as well. A couple years ago, there were 2 top 10 pick Gs who were giant busts (Womack and The guy the Pats traded Jones for). Gs are not that hard to find if you have the other pieces in place. Martin also is on another level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
