The song of the contract remains the same.
The agent provides a number that puts the agreement in the best possible light, with the largest possible figures. Reality arrives later.
For the 49ers, the quarter -Arrière Brock Purdy, his new contract – has disclosed at 5:00 p.m. on Friday, where bad news will generally die – has the best number of $ 265 million over five years. It is an average of $ 53 million per year, the attacker for seventh with the quarter-rear of Lions Jared Goff.
But it is not an extension of five years which begins in 2026. His remaining contract, with $ 5.346 million in salary for 2025, is torn and replaced by a contract of 279.346 million dollars over six years. This is an average per year from the signing of $ 45.057 million.
Which seems more than just for a quarter of the middle of the pack. And it’s ok to call him like this. He is not among the first five. It is a section to put it in the top 10. For the last choice of the 2022 draft, there is no shame in being about the 16th best quarter of the NFL.
Over time, we will know much more about the true value of the agreement. The key factors are as follows: (1) the signature of the bonus; (2) Complete warranty at the signature; and (3) cash flows in the first three years.
The structure of the agreement will also show whether the 49ers are linked to the contract for one, two or three years. (The teams rarely commit more than three years from any non -rookie contract – with the exception of Browns.)
The whole truth will emerge, in time. And the general rule of these questions is that, the more time it takes, the less the truth will be practical.
