“Based on guarantees this is a 2/$60 deal with basically a team option for $40M on the third year.”

“Still a lot of conjecture here, but if they do min base with the rest of the $30M as a prorated bonus and 2 void years…
2024: $6.9M
2025: $35.775M
2026: $45.775M
2027 (dead): $11.55MLocked in to 24/25. Would be able to get out of 26 with $28.45M in savings and $17.325M dead.”

this would be pretty decent all things considered?

Absolutely.

thoughts on Guarantee ?
Sounds like an EXCELLENT deal! Rumors are $50mil…but some report last year is guaranteed…?
Sounds like Baker was very cognizant of being team friendly so additional pieces can be added - which makes this a pretty team friendly deal.
Now, re-work/extending Tristan Wirffs deal will create some room, leaving some room for LVD & Money McLaughlin!
reasonable deal! good for both 👍
Time to re-sign LVD, extensions for AWJ and Wirfs, and then be smart in FA.
After that, it’s draft time!
Good move by bucs“Based on guarantees this is a 2/$60 deal with basically a team option for $40M on the third year.”

“GREAT deal for #Bucs, Baker Mayfield. 3 years w/$50 mil fully guaranteed for 2 yrs. $30 mil base in 2024 is guaranteed. If the team wants to move on after 1 yr, they'll eat $20 mil in dead cap $, but save $10 mil from his $30 mil base in '25. $40 mil base in '26 not guaranteed.”
- Per Scott Reynolds
I bet we trade him now for Sam Darnold
save some big $$
$40m too much for a QB of his caliber. Maybe $30m/yr with some incentives, two years max, $40m guaranteed.
His overall stats for the season are good, but he had too many below average games. Plus the team finished at .529, .526 including the playoff games. He still has much to prove, and if he lifts this team to more regular season wins, and some playoff wins, he'll have earned bigger money.
pretty close!!!

Spot on with the guarantee. Good job!
It actually is $40M in guaranteed with $10M guaranteed for injury.
Kudos to Licht and Greenberg on this one.

Let’s all enjoy this one for a minute…so we can move on to arguing about upcoming draft picks!
