That puts him at 31 years old when it expires, I don't think it's crazy seeing how he's just hitting his prime. Carson Palmer is 37 and one of the highest paid QBs.

Deserved imo, I'd take him long term over any qb in the league.

100% worth it

backload the contract so the majority pays out once the Raiders are in Vegas - save on state income tax.
0% in Nevada
13% in Cali

This sets the baseline for Stafford and Cousins and the extensions for Rodgers and Matt Ryan

Let the man get paid. He's got a very small window to make that kind of money in the NFL.

He's going to shite himself when he finally gets out of California and sees all those extra millions going into his pocket...

I'm happy to see this. I hope Oakland still has cap space to operate over the next two years, since they still need to rebuild that defense.

Not only that but when you find a great QB in the league, you have to hold on.

Raiders are poised to take over the AFC once Brady retires.
