That man earned his payday, but i didn't think he'd get the key to Scrooge McDuck's vault!!!
PS: Is it me, or does it seem like Johnson is outjumping triple coverage for every reception?

ohnson had a career season in 2011, catching 96 passes for 1.681 yards and 16 touchdowns. The move gives the Lions more salary-cap space in which to pursue free agents; Johnson was going to be a $21.1 million cap hit this year for the Lions.

I am sure its been mentioned, but the obvious issue here is the 19mm per that Megatron just inked is likely making Brees even more expensive relative to the marketplace

so much money!! i know hes an absolute monster, but wow. lions knew their offense is nothing without him. no reliable running back yet, titus young is still well, young. their TEs are pretty good.
but johnson is everything to them.

If I remember right, Fitzgerald was $100 mil 50 guaranteed or something similar right?

You really have to wait for the details of the contract. I'll bet a gazillion dollars the Lions have an optional bonus at some point, where they can pay him, have him renegotiate, or release him.
