yagersports Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 How long before Ngata gets that new deal??? Let's pay this man and be done with it. Here's a big man that clearly spent the offseason making sure he was ready to go! I want this guy locked up long term!!!! Quote

vmax Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 Ravens have 7 days to get it done this year. Quote
BMoreHon Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 Based on some of the huge contracts on players who are now indefinitely (Manning) or definitely (Beason) out this year, I wouldn't mind holding off. Seems to be a JINX!!!!! Quote
papasmurfbell Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 Ngata has to agree to the deal. Haynesworth and Sue have screwed the market up. This deal should have been done a few yes ago before he became so good. Quote
52isUnstoppable Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 Yeah i wish we got this deal done before sunday i think his agent got a nice leverage boost from his play on the field. What can we do with the additional money? Maybe add a little more cb depth... Quote
papasmurfbell Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 They could be ready for more injuries and incentives. When they hit you have to be under the cap within 24 hrs. So if say in Dec a few set of incentives comes up they may have to make cuts to get back under. Quote
RavenMad Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 They could be ready for more injuries and incentives. When they hit you have to be under the cap within 24 hrs. So if say in Dec a few set of incentives comes up they may have to make cuts to get back under. Was that part of the new CBA? The old CBA definitely had 2 definitions of incentives. Those likely to be earned where taken from the current year's salary cap at the start of the season just as if they were salary. Those unlikely to be earned were then not due until the season after they were earned. Therefore if an incentive that was likely to be earned but wasn't (most likely due to injury), this became a cap credit in the following year and was offset against the charge for those unlikely to be earned incentives that were actually earned. This system makes sense, so If they changed it in the last CBA it was a stupid move. Quote
papasmurfbell Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 My understanding and I have not read the CBA so I can't be certain but you can only be tagged 1 time. I had heard it on the radio. If I were his agent I would go to the market and maximize the value of the deal. Of course there is the Kindle effect that could burn you if you wait. These agents don't seem to mind the bad situations. Quote
