    Ongoing Flacco Contract Negotiations (Merged)

    http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...w-brees-money/

    might or might not get it




    “He’s now made a case for $20 million a year,” Clayton said. “And I think he’s gonna try to hold to that. Last season what I was hearing was he was asking for about $17 million. … But he was saying ‘okay fine, let me play this out.’ Now he’s in a position to make big money. And we’ll see if he can get over Drew Brees’ contract. I think he can.”

    I'd love to know where they got this from. From all indications there have been no talks about contract from either side regarding Flacco.

    He may be looking for that, but I haven't heard anything about either side discussing it.

    yeah, clarification, it doesn't say he DID ask for it, it says he COULD ask for it.

    JFC - $20M/yr? You'd think, 'No way'.

    But, (hopefully) he brings the Lombardi home on Sunday, then what? Can the FO say, 'No'?

    If he wins a SB then he will have all the leverage, if he doesn't, then who knows.

    He has all of the leverage anyway. Winning the SB would just be icing on the already tasty-delicious cake.


    Also, Clayton is speculating what Flacco "MIGHT" ask for...The Ravens were already interested in giving him close to $16-17 mill per year (rumored number was $96 mill over 6 years). So, it isn't a stretch to think that Flacco could see that number rise.


    I'd also like to remind everyone about the number of media pundits who claimed that Rice was looking to get an Adrian Peterson-esque deal.

    The reality is the media knows jack squat until it happens.

    “I’m told his camp believes he is playing better than Peyton Manning,” Rapoport said, referring to the NFL MVP favorite and future Hall of Famer, who pulls in $19.2 million a year. “Expect them to shoot higher than that.” It’s expected that the Ravens and Flacco will resume contract deliberations immediately after Sunday’s Super Bowl.

    I saw this myself. Not sure what to make of it, but there IS the fact that Flacco did, you know, outplay Manning when they met head to head a few weeks ago. The same Manning who is watching the SB from his couch. He obviously hasn't done it at a sustained level, though.

    Win on Sunday and we can talk, Joe. Otherwise 6/100 sounds more than fair.

    He'll get at least 18mil/year without a doubt. It wouldn't surprise me if he ended up getting 20 mil. 6 year 120 mil or 5 year 100.

    What the FO can say is "Franchise Tag".

    That is assuming they find Joe (and his agent's) demands too high. Would play hell with the salary cap, but still a very real prospect.
