Kerrigan signs long term deal
 

SO happy to hear this, he is a great player on and off the field and a terrific actor (for those that have had the pleasure of seeing Sharknado 3 like I did last night)

Re: Kerrigan signs long term deal
 

Terms not disclosed via Redskins.com, we'll need Schefter or somebody to get their hands on that.

Re: Kerrigan signs long term deal
 

Congrats and well deserved. Glad to see the team do the right thing and get him locked up now.

Re: Kerrigan signs long term deal
 

5 years, $57.5M

$11.5M per year, $16M of it coming in form of signing bonus

No word on total guaranteed money, which is the real important piece

Re: Kerrigan signs long term deal
 

Wow, that seems kinda low, assuming the cap keeps going up. I was expecting 14 a year or so.

24.28 mil guaranteed is what I saw on twitter, work computer won't let me copy and paste it

Based on what? Justin Houston is getting $16.8M per year, Clay Matthews is getting $13.2M per year, and now Kerrigan is the 3rd highest paid OLB at $11.5M.

$14M would have put him in front of Clay, I don't think you can say he's had that kind of impact.

Re: Kerrigan signs long term deal
 

To me it feels like it's slotted appropriately. Not too high, not too low. Deserved market value.

I like that the contract doesn't take him past his 31st birthday, so we're committed to his prime years and nothing beyond.

He's a very important player to keep and this keeps him at a fair price. Good stuff.

Re: Kerrigan signs long term deal
 

Good.

I mean, i rather keep all our players for $1 a year if it were possible, but at least we're paying a player that's been pretty good for us.

Re: Kerrigan signs long term deal
 

Love that SM stated early on we would try to take care of our own ......and doing it. He is everything you want today.

Re: Kerrigan signs long term deal
 

Sounds like a good contract based on how others are being paid and the salary cap

I can live with this. Much better than Orakpo wanting 13mil/year. Glad we've got him locked up long term.

Re: Kerrigan signs long term deal
 

Yeah it's a matter of durability and consistency. As a matter of principle you gotta give your big money to the guys who are available every week and who make a consistent impact for you. Orakpo tore too many pecs and was too up and down with his game. Kerrigan is a guy you can count on for sure.

Why not? I think they're close, and Kerrigan doesn't miss games. 13-14 a year would not have been too much IMO.

Anyway, very happy he was resigned. Well deserved.

Fwiw: Ryan Kerrigan will receive 24.28 mill in guaranteed money per source. 5 years, 16 mill bonus and $11.5 per year as @RapSheet reported.[/SIZE][/B][/quote]


24mil guaranteed. I think we got a bargain out of this deal.

Finally.....a Jersey I can buy NOT on a China site.

Re: Kerrigan signs long term deal
 

Well deserved extension.

Re: Kerrigan signs long term deal
 

Got to meet Kerrigan several weeks ago out at a golf tournament at Trump National. He was had some kind of sleeve on his leg. I'm 6'2 and 220 and he made me feel like a shrimp. Didn't realize how freakin big he is. Super nice guy as well.

A good read.



[quote]For his career in four seasons, Houston has 48.5 sacks and seven forced fumbles along with 234 tackles and one interception.

Kerrigan, in his four-year career has 38 sacks along with 247 tackles and two interceptions for two touchdowns. Kerrigan has 15 forced fumbles in his career, including five last year.


Kerrigan is better than Houston in every major statistical category besides sacks, where Houston has a sizable gap of 48.5 to 38, with much of that difference coming last year.[/quote]
