Damn that's a lot of guaranteed money for a wideout. His agent deserves a bonus.

Did the Steelers sign Antonio Brown yet? Or their Running back?

Yeah I hope Donald is next so the Raiders can freaking sign Mack & get him into camp/practice already!

Top 5 WR playing in a big market like NY? Yeah he was always going to get this.

Player wise he's worth it if he keeps progressing but he has some emotional and anger issues that I'd be a bit weary of.

That's a big investment but he's worth it. As long as he stays healthy he's going to produce and I believe the off the field concerns won't be a concern proceeding forward.
I'm happy for him!

Same.
Get them all signed. If not, I hope the Raiders move Mack, as much as I don't want to see that happen.

And he´s selling jerseys and merch, another important aspect.

On the other hand, Aaron Donald´s upcoming contract ($22M/yr?!) refers only on his on-field skills.

Same with Mack!
Signing Mack to $22-$24 million per season is going to contribute to handicapping the Oakland Raiders.

Sounds like it's going to be $22-$24 million per year.

Mixed feelings about it. On the one hand, we have Goff "cheap" for the next three years (his 5th year option will be quite a bit more than he's making now though, but still pretty cheap for a QB).

So hopefully they frontload the contract since we have so much cap space the next two/three years.

IMO Mack should have signed his contract first (sounds like Donald will be getting done by the end of the week) - the Raiders can easily point out that Donald is a significantly better player, so waiting on Donald may not have been his smartest option - although if the Raiders don't pay him, someone else will.

That's a **** ton of money for a non-QB. Enjoy this team while you can. Because the cap is a *****. :wink:
