The #Browns and star pass-rusher Myles Garrett are closing in on a 5-year extension worth $125M, sources say. Another massive deal, this time for $25M in new money per year. Their top priority of this offseason and they are in the final stages.

Wow, that's a HUGE deal, but he is totally worth it.

To see this deal get done would be great news. We could use some.

Looks good to me.

Worth EVERY penny.

Agreed.

Our first first round pick to sign an extension since Joe Haden.

A long history of excellence.

That's remarkable.

I wonder how much gets accounted for on this year's cap and what the future year cap impacts are.

This is the sort of deal that we've been saving cap space and carrying it over for.... but, if things go well, we'll have at least one more every year.

Good news! Hopefully front loaded

We have maybe 38 mil in space this year. It can't be all that much.


I am pretty sure we have a plan.

I don't know how good Berry and crew are going to be at selecting players. The first group looks promising, but I am very confident they go in to things with a well thought out plan.

I am standing here cheering.

YESSSSSSSSSSS

well, we broke the bank. Now it's time to get to work.

Git ‘er done.

He’s (arguably) our MVP.

That seems like an extraordinary amount of money.

I always does, then a few years later seems like a normal amount.

Did you ever say that when a couple of posters were trashing Dorsey over and over and over again for "overpaying" Landry.

Btw............I haven't heard from them regarding how we overpaid Hooper.

Unbalanced rhetoric.

It’s not really when considering the market for similarly skilled players.

I actually thought it was going to be more.

Same.

You know way more about such things than I do. How does his salary compare to guys like Von Miller, K. Mack, Frank Clark, D. Lawrence, Cam Jordan, J. Bosa, the two Watt brothers?

Hmmmmm...........maybe I am wrong. I confess I don't know much about salaries.

Maybe not, but I never thought he was overpaid. Not sure why you are on my ass on this?

I'm not on your ass. It was more about the dudes who constantly cried about Landry being overpaid. Never mind.

Nice!!! Get it done

It sounded like it, but sorry if I read in to it something that wasn't.

J/C

The consensus that I’ve read is that it’s a fair deal. He’s the highest paid non-QB right NOW ... but that’ll last about a few months haha. These deals always keep climbing

Jarvis was overpaid and he's still overpaid. Nothing's changed.






Ah. Lesson 1. Jarvis is overpaid.

Hey man, my theory is if it doesn't kill your cap, and it fits in to the team concept, it doesn't matter what a player makes.


We do have the most cap space at this point of any team. We can't be doing everything wrong.

Prices keep going up. It is what it is

Thank you.

I get it, it's not your money and he's our "best WR."

I don't care about either of those things. I don't think he's our best WR. His production doesn't match his pay. Whether you want to throw in his intangibles it still doesn't matter.

I like him, I root for him, he's a Brown. But that still doesn't erase that he was severely overpaid when he signed and still is today.

I don't believe burning money because we "can" is a good way to build a team. A decent WR isn't going to make or break you in this league. A stud DE is better use of money.

Yes. Agreed.
