[/QUOTE]
Is that what we are expecting for McNabb? Does it impact the negotiations with McNabb?

here is a thought on who might NOT be laughing:

Adam_Schefter

An issue that I'd guess we haven't heard the last of: Wonder what Eagles WR DeSean Jackson thinks of Kevin Kolb's contract extension...

D. Jackson has only played 2 years though, I would guess he's got at least another 2 years on his deal. Of course, he could demand to be paid anytime & would have some leverage based on his production.

He has a base salary of $550,000 and roster bonus of $764,625 for 2010. Not much for a starting QB. Giving him a 1 year extention for 12.25 mil is not exactly a ringing endorsement. Though it does show more confidence than JC was shown.

do we even know if mcnabb and the skins are talking extension?

doesnt that violate the 30% rule?

Well Kolb's not much of a starting QB.:laughing- As far as JC is concerned I'm curious to see how Skins fans will react if he has a breakout season. I have never been a huge fan but I do hope he does have a great season. Oakland seems to really believe in him. It will be interesting to see how he does. Have a good night 53.

It must all be signing bonus - which is exempted, but also guaranteed. That would explain the 100 % guarantee on the contract.

[quote=BigHairedAristocrat;696809]do we even know if mcnabb and the skins are talking extension?[/quote]

Technically a veteran can't have their contract renegotiated twice within a 12 month period (and McNabb just had his renegotiated with his extension last June). But I'm not entirely sure how that rule applies when a player changes teams

I just did some reading on the 30% rule and came away with the same conclusion.
