5 is alot. He's been great this year. A MAJOR improvement from the dumpster fire last year.


This is Thornton's influence over BB. He wrote an article today stating the Cannon is the Patriots #1 MUST resign player.

1st thing I thought of too

Just wish it said Scarnecchia AND Cannon.

Get the duck boats ready...

 

[TommyD420]

Butler, Hightower, Ryan, Sheard, Garoppolo...

Extend Cannon?

This is like when they gave Ninkovich an extra $2 million for no reason.

Perhaps he settled for a few coupons to the Golden Corral. :shrug:

This is the exact equivalent of the Bruins signing Kevin Miller day one of the FA period.

This is actually a perfect analogy.

I need to know the numbers, if it is 5 years at 4 per i am ok with it.

If it is 5 years at 9 per i am thinking bill needs a pennicillin shot for his infection.

I'm going to guess it's like 5/25, with maybe a signing bonus in year 1.

That's a lot of money for a backup tackle, unless Vollmer is toast.

I just heard 5/37. That is a head scratcher for me

Hopefully no guarantee at least.

If it's that kind of money, there will be a guarantee, at least for the first year.

And it means Vollmer is gone. Sigh.

The latest example: The team and tackle Marcus Cannon agreed to a five-year deal worth $32.5 million, including $14.5 million in guarantees, a source told NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport.

I'm really happy for the guy. I'm sure it's been a hell of a roller coaster ride for him. To start out battling cancer and beating that to having a season like last year and rebounding the way that he has. Good for him.

The writer says he started every game, I thought he missed Cleveland.


but 6.5 for 5 years is not insane money and Volmer is toast, His hip is just a long line of injuries, he retires after this year if smart and heals up to be a father.

I think Volmer is a free agent after this year.

Cannon is playing better than ever to my lying eyes. He's ranked 15th of ALL active OTs by PFF. Solder is ranked 16th.

Vollmer will likely retire or he should anyway. He's done with the Pats regardless.

 

[Darth Despot]

As long as The OL Whisperer (Scar) is around he'll be fine.

Is Scar really this damn good? I mean, he took a turnstile most fans wanted run out of town ASAP and turned him into a big-paycheck guy. Amazing.
