Mike Sellers inks extension - DC Pro Sports Report

My favorite player! Good to go Sellers! I hope they didn't low ball your ass.

I'm not sure how to feel about this. He's a nice blocker but the few times they let him carry the ball he fumbles. At the right price I guess its ok but I think they could find another player to do what he does at a cheaper price.

Wow. Didn't see that one coming. Curious about the details and what the extension really means. Good update Penn

That because the offense didnt play.

That's good news, although I have to say that I'm sort of surprised to see the contract continues to 2014 though.. Since Sellers is like 34 years old or something? But it doesn't look like Sellers will eat up our cap salary space though, so...

im sure that had nothing to do with it. and if i were a player, i would definitely wait until signing anything. next years CBA could be null and void

Glad to hear it. They made him a captain, extended his contract, he's good to go. Play ball Mike!

Here are updated numbers

Quote:

Sellers’s old contract was set to expire after the 2010 season, but now he is signed through 2014. Given he is a fullback in his ninth year, he likely won’t see too much of those future salaries. However, he is now set to make $745,000 this season, $855,000 next season, $950,000 in 2011, $1.045 million in 2012, $1.145 million in 2013 and $1.2 million in 2014.

Good to hear, he deserved some extra cake. Keep ballin'.

BigHairedAristocrat · 09-16-2009, 04:56 PM

I dont understand why we bothered adding so many years to the contract - i know he's been on the team longer than any other player (if we ignore the year he spent in Cleaveland), but there's no way we keep him through 2014. What's the point? His salary and Bonus are so small, we might as well have just signed him through 2012, which is the longest i can possibly concieve of him playing.

Just to amortize the signing bonus over a longer period of time. He's got another year or two with the team. At the end of that, the dead money will be small and manageable.
