Yeah but all he has to do is essentially be who has been while out there and do it at a I'd say 14 or more game clip next two seasons and that bonus is easily deserved to market. Love how both sides did that deal.
The spike that year though is massively tied to his health given $13M of it is that roster bonus. If he doesn't prove to be healthy we walk from him prior to that hitting and save that $13M
Didn't leave anything out, was looking at advance production stats many bypass and look just to yards and TDs. I thought I had put in their per game figures but that was a lapse on my part as that would have indicated a signficant thing as you hint at for sure.
They truly are the best player...
Oh for sure, crazy thing is when it comes to freaky athletes I think Pierce still escapes some folks minds (not yours necessarily but people in general).
Here are the two guys athletic testings:
6'3' 211lbs | 4.41 Forty | 1.46 10yd Split | 40.5 Vertical | 1009 Broad | 4.28 Shuttle
6'4'...
I will say I think many don't realize how good Pierce is to an extent like many undersell Watson too...some comparisons below:
Yards Per Route Run - Watson 2.28 > Pierce 2.10
Yards Per Target Career - Watson 10.0 > Pierce 9.9
Yards Per Target 2025 - Pierce 11.9 > Watson 11.1
Yards Per Reception...
To convict or find guilty sure, but even my dear friend who works for the local prosecutor has always said they too hold themselves to the same standard “if they feel it is achieved” or not to file.
That is why that $13M roster bonus exists in 2028 as someone pointed out - if health is a serious issue you can part ways and it's an additional $13M saved. Watson and his agent were cognizant and fair, as is GB for sure too...because if Watson is what they believe he is - you could absolutely...
If he stays healthy and even stays stagnant in productivity and efficiency that season and bonus is a no brainer. I wouldn't disagree however with the 2 and an asterick
Yup, pretty much what I expected locked for three, easily can be kept for four or five if he is delivering as a WR1 or walked from after 2028.
To not have a single year of his contract hit the cap for more than $30M is incredible. WR1 play and you let him see the entire of the contract...and...
