Good news.  Apparently, according to Friedman, they arent far apart with Ladd either...

Jeeze that's a big number, but I'm sure that was to keep the term down. I like the 5 years a lot.

Great news... Buff is a game changer, those kind of guys don't come along every day...

Yeah, you gotta think the price went up to take years off. My initial reaction is I can live with this deal.

That's where I'm at too. It's not like they're in cap trouble. If you're gonna get a deal done, pay him a higher AAV and get the term shorter. I don't trust a Buff anywhere near 40...

I just heard a co worker said 5 years 38 million

Just saw first four years 8 mil than last is 6 

I'll take 5 years 38 million all damn day.

Happy this deal is done.

Wonder what Ladd is thinking now.

Teammates seem happy too.

They're just frisking him down for hundreds.

They're thanking him because he'll be picking up the dinner bill tonight!

When it's a fit, it's a fit. Buff loves what Manitoba has to offer..and vice versa. He's a character player, Winnipeg deserves him. The term is just right. Buffuglien must feel comfortable now that he knows Ehlers has his back.

It's  a good news story the day before we get some more good news.

Let's see what happens around the deadline first.  Great deal tho, IMO.

Hmmmm $7.6 is a big number.  But probably will look even better in about two years.  But yes, 5 year deal is great and if it cost a few bucks, so be it.  $38m as a total is a very good number. 

Is there any left for Ladd?

Now can we never hear again how the Jets wont spend money

You are not impressed with the Kane trade , the guys we have drafted,  and the contracts he already extended?

5 more years of greenback hunting on Big Windy for Big Buff....smart decisions all around
