General Section » Our guess is that Roethlisberger’s new contract

The Antonio Brown era in New England won’t begin on Sunday night against the Steelers T. J. Watt Jersey White , but it could begin as soon as next Sunday afternoon, against the Dolphins.Per a source with knowlege of the situation, Brown is expected to practice on Wednesday. On Monday and Tuesday, he’ll be getting a crash course in the New England offense, likely from offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels directly.Ultimately https://www.thesteelerslockerroom.com/authentic-juju-smith-schuster-jersey , it will be up to Brown to show that he knows the offense well enough to play. Once on the field, he’ll need to win the trust of quarterback Tom Brady to get the ball.Last year, receiver Josh Gordon sat out a game before making his debut after a trade from the Browns. It took him a while to get going, but in his fourth appearance he generated 100 receiving yards.Whenever Brown makes his debut, it’s clear the Patriots have high hopes. Apart from that money-speaks-louder-than-words signing bonus of $9 million T. J. Watt Jersey , a source with knowledge of the situation tells PFT that coach Bill Belichick pressed pause on his preparations for Pittsburgh to become directly involved in the accelerated negotiations with Brown’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus.So Belichick clearly wanted Antonio Brown. And now Belichick has Antonio Brown. In Week Two, former Belichick lieutenant Brian Flores may get the opportunity to try to stop Antonio Brown. As the 15th anniversary of his Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger‘s selection as the 11th overall pick in the draft approaches, Roethlisberger has signed a contract that will dwarf the base six-year, $22.26 million deal he received in 2004. So how much will Roethlisberger make?Although the Steelers haven’t been shy about paying Roethlisberger close to market value Jerome Bettis Jersey White , Roethlisberger was careful about not letting out details of his last deal. That contract, signed in March 2015, put him at $21.85 million per year in new money, not far behind Aaron Rodgers‘ former rate of $22 million per year, the top of the market at the time.Rodgers is now at $33.5 million per year in new money James Conner Jersey White , and Russell Wilson recently jumped to $35 million.falls somewhere between Matt Ryan‘s $30 million per year new-money average and Rodgers’ current rate.The new contract will be a two-year extension. If the Steelers remain true to their past business practices, they will pay guaranteed money only in the form of a signing bonus and first-year salary. With $5 million already earned in March and $12 million more due this season, Roethlisberger could get a signing bonus in the range of $45 million, since that’s the only guaranteed money he’ll receive on what will be a three-year commitment. The two-year extension possibly will fall between $60 million and $64 million, putting the new-money average between $30 million and $32 million and the total value from signing of the new three-year deal at $77 million to $81 million Womens Jerome Bettis Jersey , with an average worth at signing of anywhere from $25.67 million to $27 million.For now, this is just as semi-educated guess. The real numbers eventually will be disclosed, even if Roethlisberger and his agent refrain (as they did in 2015) from trumpeting the numbers right out of the gates.
