LEINART DEAL DONE

A league source tells us that Cardinals first-round pick Matt Leinart has agreed to terms.

Per the source, the deal includes $14 million in guaranteed money on a six-year deal worth more than $50 million.

Earlier in the day, Cards coach Dennis Green lashed out at Leinart for not accepting the deal, which Green says contains $14 million in guarantees. Though the final agreement is indeed worth $14 million guaranteed, the hang up was the payments in the out years. We don't yet have the specifics, but we're hearing that the final year of Leinart's deal contains some big numbers based on reasonable play-time thresholds.

Here's another news announcement that we can measure PFT's reliability against. Their track record isn't so good.

Here's to hoping, though.

For all the crap PFT gets. They have let out some very good stories before anyone else has reported it over the last year or 2 or so. I dont think they are nearly as bad as a lot of other poeple think.
