I believe that there's some truth to this. Otherwise there is really no reason to have this many Bama players. Our defense could have 6 Bama starters next year. Insane.

Peterson stays

Skinsfanatic · 03-13-2019, 03:58 PM

Peterson at 2 years/8 million.

Is that a lot? It feels like a lot, but since he played for 1 million last year.

It's maybe a little high, but his play last year earned this type of deal and the positivity and leadership he brings is what makes it worth it to me.

That's one thing about AP, total professional...all heart and you can tell he loves the game. If this is good for anybody, its good for Guice

I'm pretty sure it is a 1-year $4 mil and we'll see for the 2nd year.

3.5 or 4 a year for AP was the number I kept hearing it would be

MTK · 03-13-2019, 04:46 PM

It’s a 2 year, $8m deal but the second year is an option. Will be curious to see exactly how it’s structured but expect something that’s very easy to move on from after 1 year if the #Redskins want.

On Adrian Peterson's 2-year, $8m deal, his base salary in year 1 is $2.5m, source said.

Total speculation, totally my opinion but I think there was something to the meeting he and Dan had this off-season.

I thought Cleveland would have kept him!

Because they're good. I like the Collins signing because he's a baller. I don't care where he went to school. What would be insane would be to pass on an opportunity like this because of where the player went to school.

I think the Alabama infatuation is honestly about changing a culture. I think Jay and Bruce are struggling with how to go about putting together a more professional, hardworking group who's willing to sacrifice his body and work tirelessly with discipline and passion. When you see Jonathan Allen I mean it's obvious that's the kind of guy you'd want setting the tone in your locker room. So I get it.

But the real problem is Jay and Bruce aren't creating the culture themselves. We've still got a Club Jay atmosphere with a soft ass Club Jay training camp.

Schneed10 · 03-13-2019, 06:10 PM

We learned our lesson with Collins, always wait for the contract details to come out and withhold judgment til then. I love AP the player.

But that cap charge needs to be $2M or so for this to make sense. I don't think we should be using a significant chunk of cap space on Peterson unless there's concern over Guice's recovery (God I hope not).

All Day is good for our locker room and fun to watch but he's not going to be the same player forever. Like I said, at $2M or $2.5M cap charge, I can get with it. Let's see what it comes to.

MTK · 03-13-2019, 06:14 PM

^ I posted above the cap hit is 2.5 this year for AP
