soooooooooo basically all that happened here with this extension is DC got his salary for this season guaranteed and a 5 million dollar raise.
and he got to do a farcical press conference.
McZiegler can still rip up this contract and ditch DC after next season should they be so inclined
thats a hell of a " sweet spot "
exactly the sort of contract DC should get
McZiegler is coming from a smart organization so they know what they have here, they watched the season and they know what they saw
they have a 9th year QB who spiked the ball on 1st down and cost the team a down in the red zone of the biggest game, before panicking and blindly throwing to a Zay Jones that was double covered on the final play
they have a QB who got lucky to face off with Mullens, Lock and Wentz down the stretch of last season
they have a QB who played terribly against the Giants and Commanders, NFC Least also rans
they have a QB who AGAIN struggled in December
they have a QB whose life flashed before his eyes after the Bosa strip sack in the final game of the regular season
but they only have this QB on a year to year basis now................brilliant
$7.5M to sign is GREAT for the Raiders
this is what a smart organization looks like........finally
when you go big for the best WR in football, you cannot then overpay a QB who's not a consensus top 10 QB in the league
DC stays, but on OUR TERMS
the team's terms
with a owner that hasn't truly cashed in on Vegas yet, this is a win for MD
a lot of hype surrounding what Davante and DC were able to do at Fresno state, but they didn't win the national championship at Fresno State
Renfrow and Watson won the national championship.
but MD was never going to be able to afford to purchase Deshaun Watson from the Texans
we know what the Browns paid for the Watson purchase, fully guaranteed $230 million and the richest contract in NFL history
just bad timing
MD might have been able to cut that sort of check for Watson after hosting the Super Bowl in 2024
oh well
we have to settle for Davante and thats fine for now
