Link to follow. This is good news. Ruhskins 07-26-2021, 04:45 PM Excellent news! Here's a tweet from his agent: https://twitter.com/TeamIFA/status/1419740131536293893 Chico23231 07-26-2021, 04:46 PM Phenomenal resign. Glad we bring him back than Schreff skinsfan69 07-26-2021, 04:51 PM To me this is an overpay, but that is what it was going to take to re-sign him. What does this mean for Payne? sdskinsfan2001 07-26-2021, 04:54 PM Hell yeah!!! He is our defensive anchor. Love to see it. MissouriSkin 07-26-2021, 04:56 PM To me this is an overpay, but that is what it was going to take to re-sign him. What does this mean for Payne? 99% of resigning as or free agent signings are overpays. Just the nature of the business.

What does this mean for Payne?I think keeping a guy on his 1st contract is worth a slight overpay. Bringing in free agents by overpaying is different.

I'm not sure it's an 'overpay'. By extending, the $30M signing bonus prorates over five years, not four. So we carry $6M of that on our cap here in 2021. That leaves the average annual cap hit of the 2022 - 2026 portion of the contract at $16.5M. Unclear how much of that is front loaded or backloaded. I don't see it as out of touch with market value - remember the cap is going to go up next season by a lot. This has a lot to do with reinforcing the culture. If you want to talk culture you can't let a guy like Jon Allen get to the franchise tag phase. Because he's a guy that does absolutely everything right. The culture talk is empty if you don't extend Allen. Scherff does everything right too but he flat out doesn't want to be here. We offered top of the market guard money and he said no, not much more you can do.

The leadership and a guy who just does the dirty work while playing within the system. Really lucky when he fell to us and this is a great win for culture and leadership in the building. Also, hats off to the front office to get this done now especially after a lil disappointment in not being able to keep Schreff long term. This is a win for those guys too.
