[msadows]

Just heard on the score.


I like it, just don't make him anything more than a #5.

League minimum or...

 

[iueyedoc]

According to Kevin Fishbain, the Bears have signed WR Equanimeous St. Brown to a one-year extension that runs through the 2023 season. Ian Rapoport adds the deal is worth $1.25 million in total, which isn't a huge investment.

League minimum for a 5th yr player is $1.08M, so close and possibly just camp fodder.

That is essentially the vet minimum as for a 5 year tenured vet the league min is 1.08m

How much does 30 yards a game go for these days?

I know many on here hate him but i'm good with this and think as a #4/#5 receiver i'm fine with it. His blocking is pretty good.

Yuck

Conversion to TE this offseason incoming.

 

[Marley's Liberality]

I'll be happy to see him drop passes at critical times once again.

Bears got their guy

Well, EQ averages around 20 per game and he got $1.2M. So about $600,000 per 10 yards. That puts Claypools value around $1.8M by my math

Wow so anything more than that and poles is getting fleeced…again

You could do a lot worse than Brown for your 4th/5th WR.

Just a sign of things to come in the WR market.... ugh...

Don't expect much upgrades at WR, imo.

Velus should make the roster unless he just flat out sucks and shows zero improvement in preseason. EQ just re-upped.

Thats 4 guys already under contract. They probably draft a guy on day 3 and then sign some mediocre young vet like Parris Campbell.

none of the WRs make enough money to be an issue if an upgrade presents itself

Yea, but the FA list this year is pretty awful, I'm gonna pass on paying Jakobi Meyers, Allen Lazard, or Juju Poopster 10m+, and hopefully poles does too.

Good news for the bears is that mooney just got pretty cheap if they want to renew his deal too.

 

[Anytime23]

Only WR on the roster where it felt like they got more than expected. Cheap extension and at least thats one more player Fields will have some familiarity with moving forward. But he cannot be better than #4 on your depth chart.
