1. 下来两年给Pats省了$15 mils的空间
2. Average money in the next 5 years: ~14 mils, 30% less than Drew Brees and
Peyton Manning and possibly Elite Joe
Tom Brady took a huge step today to ensure he'll retire a Patriot, agreeing
to a three-year contract extension that will keep him under center for New
England through the 2017 season, when he will be 40 years old.
For the second time in his illustrious career, Brady is doing something
players in this day and age simply do not do: As he did in 2005, Brady, a
league source told SI.com, is signing a contract with New England that will
pay him significantly less money than the market will bear, in large part to
help the Patriots stay competitive for the next five seasons.
Amazingly, according to the source, the deal is for an eye-poppingly
conservative $27 million, which is less than half his worth by any measure.
The extension will pay Brady a $3 million signing bonus immediately, in
addition to salaries of $7 million in 2015, $8 million in 2016 and $9
million in 2017. Brady told Sports Illustrated five years ago he wanted to
play until he was 40, at least, and this will accomplish that. He turns 40
on Aug. 3, 2017.
The upshot of the deal is to give the Patriots massive cap relief in a flat-
cap era. He was due to count $43.6 million on the New England salary cap in
2013 and 2014. Now, his cap numbers will add up to $28.6 million in the next
two years, a savings of $15 million in cap dollars at a time the Patriots
have free agents they want to sign to help keep the team atop the AFC East,
which they have dominated since Brady took over at quarterback in 2001.
After the Patriots move money around to lessen the blow of Brady's money in
a flat-cap era -- the NFL's salary cap is expected to be virtually the same
in the next two years as it was last season, about $121 million a year --
here will be Brady's cap numbers over the next five seasons, according to a
source with knowledge of the contract:
2013: $13.8 million
2014: $14.8 million
2015: $13 million
2016: $14 million
2017: $15 million
The Patriots can do this by guaranteeing his salaries for the next three and
giving him much of the money in a chunk of a bonus right now. That, the
source with knowledge of the contract said, is what the Patriots intend to
do. And history points to Brady doing the same thing eight offseasons ago.
In 2005, after his third Super Bowl title, Brady agreed to a six-year, $60
million deal, which at the time was dwarfed by Peyton Manning's contract,
which averaged $14.2 million a year. This year, clearly, he is doing exactly
the same thing -- in fact, giving the team even more of a hometown discount
-- with one goal in mind: to keep the Patriots competitive for the rest of
his career. He's putting his money where his mouth is. He knows it's easy
for him to make millions in endorsements. One teammate once said about Brady
he would be such a sore loser he'd do whatever it took to never lose. At a
time when the growing market for quarterbacks pegs the average per year at
about $20 million -- Drew Brees and Peyton Manning are there, and it's
likely Super Bowl champ Joe Flacco will be there soon -- Brady's average
over the next six years will be consistently about 30 percent lower.
It's very likely Brady feels the same way today as he felt in 2005, when he
did the last sub-market deal. "To be the highest-paid, or anything like that
, is not going to make me feel any better,'' he said in 2005. "That's not
what makes me happy. In this game, the more one player gets, the more he
takes away from what others can get. Is it going to make me feel any better
to make an extra million, which, after taxes, is about $500,000? That
million might be more important to the team.''
In an important free agency period, when New England will be fighting to
stay relevant and win its first Super Bowl since the 2004 season, they
should have the financial ammunition to fortify the team. They could bolster
the pass rush by signing free agent Dwight Freeney of the Colts, or the
secondary by signing veteran safety Ed Reed, also a free agent. On offense,
they could open the wallet to re-sign Brady's favorite receiver, Wes Welker,
or maybe aim higher for a younger franchise receiver like Mike Wallace of
the Steelers. All of a sudden, New England will have an additional $15
million of cap freedom, while two-thirds of the teams in the league struggle
to do anything in free agency because they're so snug to the cap.

不过 要知道 2005年的时候 TB就已经有过一次类似的行为了 big home town discount
那个时候他还没跟Gissel搭上呢 而且 considering how little money he made in
his early years before 2005

不值得20M一年。这个的代价，不是让球队其他球员吃亏，就是球队损失夺冠的实力。
这个市场给带坏了。当年汤哥和曼宁像两个超级大国搞军备竞赛似的，都要争夺联盟最
高工资。后来老朱也来插一腿。跟着现在小周也来参和。明年阿猫阿狗都要拿顶薪。
没做研究，我猜这个根源是前几年乳剂的工资高的太离谱。布拉夫德，四大佛这些状元
连场都没上过，拿的钱就已经比肩汤哥曼宁了。你说人家老板能不给精英老球员大涨工
资吗。结果就连锁反应，涨疯了。现在乳剂工资已经封顶，回归正常了，老球员的市场
其实也应该随之回落。我希望龙哥能做活雷锋，拿个15M一年就够了，20M的话，我估计
也没啥希望那SB了，除非Ted Thompson草稿镖镖全中大奖。
另外我有一个猜测。Flat cap 应该是到2015年，明年新的电视合同就开始了，应该是
老板收入大增。但是为什么2014和2015年的cap不涨，我想不明白。老板明后两年可要
恨赚一笔。怪不得给古代二30M的报酬。如果2016年Cap大调整，比如涨到150M，牌子再
给汤哥重新签合同，把过去几年少要的都补回来。Perfect scenario，牌子这两年再拿
个SB，到时汤哥也快退休，队伍重建，找个乳剂QB也要不了几个钱，Cap room应该很富
裕，足够给汤哥付退休金的。如果，小周，甚至龙哥向汤哥学习，减薪签个长合同，到
时就傻眼了。人家汤哥一声byebye退休去了。
