I'm not sure he wants out so badly like people think...he just made a ridiculous deal for a center. Seems like it boils down to 9-9-8-8-8 with the possibility of the first 3 years guaranteed, correct? Like Raider said, who is going to pass that up....by far the highest paid center in the league and he is one of few NFL players that control part of a contract after it's signed. If he wanted out so bad, why not have that clause after year 1?looks like he wants his own out... this is a 2 year contract unless mack wants more, and no tag option
again not to offend any browns fans, but when the two teams you are looking at have had a bad recent track record, wanting an out is not a bad idea
i am guessing the browns match. 18mil over 2 years is better than had they tagged him
The problem with the contract from the Browns POV is the 3rd year guarantee if he doesn't opt out. I thought of that driving home today...years 2 and 3 would be loaded up. It didn't quite end up being that, but the fact it's guaranteed is along those lines. Won't be surprised if they let him walk depending on how they pencil in Haden, Gordon and others.
