For some reason whenever a contract is announced, it is necessary to remind everyone to wait until the actual specific details come out. The first numbers that are released come from the agent and are always what the absolute maximum is.
For instance, Derek Carr’s deal with the Saints was said to be worthg $150 million! With $100 million guaranteed! When in reality, it’s only got $60 million in guarantees at signing and another $10 million kicks in in year two.
