Yah, at the very least, I'd want to see him play an entire season of good football before I hand him $50M/yr for the next 5 years, not just 8 games. |

You know, there's another question. Who's going to pay him? How many decent teams actually need a QB and have the cap space to shell out that kind of $$$? I mean, sure there's a lot of teams that could use a better QB, but how many have the space to get it done, and are good enough besides the QB to make that switch palatable to Love? |

If the Packers were concerned about seeing body of work before committing, they really shouldn’t have ****ed themselves by sitting the guy for the first three years of his career and declining the 5th-year option.
They did this to themselves. |

Take a look at the cap space by tab. Looking into the future, 2025, 2026, etc. There are a ton of teams who could make it work. |

This is all academic, though. Reports sound like a deal is close. Probably done this week so we can all see for ourselves what the price tag was. |

Yeah, it's just a fun hypothetical exercise. Sure GB will retain him, it's just a question of whether they screw themselves a la DAL and Dak for example, or if they find a way to mitigate some of the risk. My guess is the guaranteed $$$ will equate to about $40M/yr, but the contract superficially will look like $50M/yr. |

That's quite nice for JLove. I hope he gets a very large contract, maybe he can eventually join the 3 comma club.
