BillsFan4 Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 $219 million guaranteed. The most guaranteed money Mike Brown had ever given out prior to this was $31 million for Orlando Brown Jr. in March. Before that was $30M to Carson Palmer way back in 2005. The Bengals have been extremely stingy on guarantees. Mike Brown obviously had no choice in this case. But that’s like $250 million in guarantees just this year. They also have Chase coming due for a new deal. They're going to have to give him some hefty guaranteed money too. I believe that guaranteed money has to be put in the bank up front. I know Bengals have been spending more in recent years, but I’m still curious to see if this deal has any effect on the way they operate, at least in the next few years. Is Mike Brown going to be willing to keep spending like he has? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s billionaires paying millionaires a fraction of the product they produce. I’d be for the salary cap taking a larger percentage. I do wish the QB market was less of a percentage though. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 Are people really worried about Josh after this? That dude wants a “fair” deal but he is not about squeezing every dime he can out of his football career. He’s a smart guy with a good family. He knows he is set for life and he wants to win championships. The only pressure on Josh will be from agents and players who don’t want him to accept less than market value.

BillsFan4 Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 1 hour ago, Bob Jones said: NFL owners are certifiably insane. Just to put this deal into perspective - The total amount of Burrow’s 5 year deal is less than an NFL owner makes in a single season. The Bengals owner spent $89 million in 2022 in operating expenses and made $462 million. So just shy of $375 million in profit. In a single year. In the NFL there is a salary cap ceiling and floor (every team has to spend to at least 89% of the cap in a 4yr period). Every team decides how to spend that allotted money. Even teams without a big QB contract on their books are spending a similar amount of total money on players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the Bengals owner pay any taxes on that $375million? I’m thinking YES, so he’s not netting as much as you seem to think.

I’m thinking YES, so he’s not netting as much as you seem to think. Ok, say he didn’t use any tricks or deductions and paid the full 24% federal tax rate + 4% Ohio tax rate (which seems unlikely since multi millionaires often only pay a small fraction of that) - he’d still have made about $270 million last year from the bengals. So, still as much as Burrow will make over the next 5 years. And NFL profits continue to rise almost every year. So Brown will probably make more than 5x what Burrow will over that 5 year span. So the owner of one of the least profitable NFL teams (2nd least iirc) is making 5x more than the highest paid NFL player. All of this is kind of missing the point of my post though. There is a salary cap ceiling/floor and every team spends a similar amount of total money on players every season. The cap is tied to NFL profits and each team has to spend a percentage of the cap every season. So if they give one massive deal and 52 tiny ones, they’re still spending a similar amount of money to other teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
