Closer to $110k and $120k in years two and three with incentives. If he hits all the incentives (ie all-star status), it'll be a great deal.

According to some of them sheep-luvin yahoos, with this one contract Walters literally screwed up everything Jones accomplished last year in re-setting the salary cap league-wide for first round picks. It's an unbelievable travesty of unfathomable proportions. SPuDS, Fred C Dobbs and Bigblue204 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigg jay Posted May 17, 2017 Report Share Posted May 17, 2017 It's also revisionist history. Had St.John accepted the Riders initial offer, his contract would have been right in line with the other 1st overall picks. Jones was perfectly fine with the going rate until Hardaway did his usual shtick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only real difference is that Ekakite has more of it guaranteed. SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some fans are outraged that Walters would mess with how much 1st round draft picks are paid (even tho its only aprox 10k more then last years deal for St.John) and even more surprising, its from a staunch Leos fan... rider fans are suspiciously quiet..

If thats the deal Walters went with to sweeten the pot a bit, I see no reason for people to freak about it.. its not revolutionizing how people sign their picks imo.

Walters also negotiated this contract before the draft to avoid the fuss Jones went through with St. John last year. Negotiating in good faith, what a concept.

Of course. Can't leave Sam out of any discussion on bodies. Say.
