All good, Deamon. You'll be missed, but hopefully you will continue to participate in this thread at least. @Instinctive, you're next man up!

Small break in the dam... David Lombardi @LombardiHimself Alfred Collins' completed contract with the 49ers: 4 years, $10.3m $4.1m signing bonus $1.9m 2025 cap hit ***$9.1m fully guaranteed*** 6:55 PM · Jul 16, 2025

Like most things nowadays, the headlines don't match the substance. Cash paid, this deal will be 2 yrs/$88M or 3/115, and then there are team and player options for continuing with bigger numbers or renegotiating or exiting. Either way, it's a good and fair deal for both sides.

I sense this is way bigger than any one or two teams and more a reflection of NFL players generally wanting to inch toward more guarantees in their contracts. Count me in supporting all 2nd rds getting fully guaranteed deals.

So when do we find out our draft order?

Is it collective? Is it random? I think more the former than the latter. Interesting situation either way, and I am on the side of the 2nd rounders (and all the drafted players eventually) to get more guarantees as they enter the league. These aren't huge, franchise killing contracts if/when...

Dood punched a chick while awaiting his entry into the dreamiest of all the dream jobs this planet has to offer. I don't care how hot she is or what she did or didn't do to deserve it. He's a moron and should be drafted accordingly.

Draft Rishi ahead of ADP. Draft Rishi ahead of ADP. Draft Rishi ahead of ADP. Fatrick Rd 1 and Rishi Rd 2. #Winning

I wasn't suggesting they are evenly comparable, or that Jennings should receive anything close to Wilson. I do think it's reasonable for Jennings to suggest the gap should be a lot less than a 4:1 ratio in 2025 comp, especially if they end up receiving anywhere near similar targets. But let's...

He obviously thought it was good/acceptable for the role he had then. Things have changed and his role has grown well beyond the contract in the year since.

Very well said.

And I highly doubt he's asking for Ja'Marr Chase money.

Fair, but you could structure the 2025 bump with incentives and escalators based on production to limit team risk, and still come to an arrangement that satisfies and rewards the player should he turn into more of a true WR1 this year. Garrett Wilson just signed for four times per year what...

I would offer Jennings something in the range between Meyers and Sutton for 2025, and ask him to prove that he is worth more in 2026 and beyond.
