The All Things Terry Thread

The longer we have to wait for contract details, the more convinced I am that Terry's deal favors the the team.
Eh. Maybe.

But I think Spotrac normally takes about a week. I pay for a subscription there, and that’s what I’ve generally noticed.

And only owing him another 15M in the spring next year makes him easily tradable if the reports are true that the FO is fed up with him.

Yeah if I understand it (and I still want the annual breakdown, these aren’t actually the full details) it’s $44M between this year and next and $6M in 2027. Could definitely be wrong on that so if someone understands better please let me know.

I don't think frustrations from a negotiation would carry on past the negotiation ending. If anything, you want optionality in case production cliff rears its head.

That is to say, if they were sick of him, the person, they would have just played out the current deal.
 
Seems to be a good deal for the team. For Terry I hope he stays injury free and earns all of those incentives
 
So, in the end result both sides did what was best for everyone.

That's a far different story then we see with the Cowboys and Micah Parsons and in part what we see with the Bengals and Hendrickson.

Terry's numbers are not off the charts unreasonable by any stretch and the team gets it appears that unguaranteed last year which may end up being very important under the cap at the time.

Jerry Jones looks like he is going down the rabbit hole with contracts on his team and now has issues with some great younger players on his roster that will be looking for new deals because he gave Dak Prescott WAY TOO MUCH money and misjudged that Dak was in fact an elite quarterback when he is not.

In Cincinnati the issues with Hendrickson resolved in a one year deal but that's a push to 2026 as the Bengals had to use their #1 pick on a DE as insurance against Hendrickson's status in April.

The club would have been much better off trading Tee Higgins LAST YEAR, resigning Hendrickson and then upgrading the defense with a top pick at CORNERBACK which is the team's glaring weakness.
 
Hey my prediction wasn't far off!

The way Rapaport phrased it also implies his 2025 salary that was non-guaranteed, now is, which for all intents and purposes subtracts from the "new" Total Guaranteed amount. So the team got a little bit taken off the higher APY guess with lower guarantees.

Terry got a big pay bump, more long term security, and the team got a deal that made sense with his comparisons.

They could have had Trey Amos in the second round this year, right? Maybe their top pick needs to be a GM.
