Great news. I like that we dont just over pay everyone. We reward the real difference makers on the team and get good value with the rest of the roster.

What's an option bonus?

If the Cards had $31 million guaranteed for Dockett then obviously Rolle, Boldin and Dansby left because either they wanted to go or the Cards wanted them to go.

If it is smoke and mirror money then nevermind.

Guaranteed means precisely that. Can't be smoke and mirrors. The total of 40+ million is where the smoke is!

My favorite part (from Sando's article)

As for Dockett?

"I think I have to take my game to a totally different level (now)," he said.

There's a scary thought for the rest of the NFC West.

.

He gets a raise this year with a lot of guaranteed money coming in the form of escalators, workout bonuses, one 15 mill bonus next season, and semi-guaranteed base salaries against injury and performance. Not sure how much is guaranteed in those base salaries or how they are guaranteed though.
PFT has confirmed Dockett received $30 million guaranteed for injury and $28 million for skill and injury.

Just so you know the term guaranteed can be smoke and mirrors as well. Just because it says guaranteed doesn't mean the player will actually ever see it. Lots of loops holes and media and agents using the term guaranteed very loosely these days.

Someone texted me and said 90 and co. are in Old Town right now hitting the Patron hard and one of them said coach extended the whole team's curfew. Can we bet on preseason games?

This is from a waitress however so she could not know who Dockett is.

Although you would think they would have traveled to Washington tonight. Rather than traveling there and back after the game tomorrow. :shrug:

I'm confused. Why would they be traveling to Washington?

Congrats DD and well done to the Cardinals FO. I hope this serves as another sign to all of our players that hard work and playing well with the Cardinals does pay off and serves as a motivation for them to play their asses off like Dockett has done to earn his contract.
