I asked Kyle if calling Howie Roseman a genius in this post would be too strong and he said yes. So, Howie Roseman isn’t not a genius: The one-year deal that Alshon Jeffery took in order to prove himself comes with a base salary of only $9.5 million:
Alshon Jeffery's deal with #Eagles ended up coming out to a 1-year, $9.5 million deal, with $4.5 million in incentives.
What a steal.

So it’ll be $14 million, at most. And only $9.5 million counts against the cap. His base salary is only $1 million with a $7.75 million signing bonus ($8.5 million guaranteed), $750,000 workout bonus, and $4.5 million in incentives. So much for all those takes about Jeffery being too expensive!
When he's not writing about sports here or ranting about them on Twitter, Jim is probably watching X-Files on Netflix or drinking a beer somewhere. Jim has nothing against hockey, it's just not his style. He once met Duce Staley at a Sixers game.
