The Green Bay Packers and Jaire Alexander are finalizing a four-year, $84 million contract extension according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The $21 million average per year is the highest for any defensive back in the NFL.

Yikes, that is a lot of money.

My son sent me a link a few seconds ago.

Alexander’s deal includes a league minimum base salary of $1.076 million and a signing bonus of $30 million, the latter being a record-high for a defensive back. With the bonus being spread out over the next five seasons, Alexander’s cap hit for the 2022 season could be as low as $7.076 million, with any per-game active roster bonuses and workout bonuses applicable this season increasing that number. If none are present and that value is accurate, the move frees up about $6.2 million in salary cap space for the Packers this season, giving the Packers plenty of cap room to get through this season and enough flexibility to potentially

I love it. The $21 mil seems like a ot but it's the NFL of 2022 and beyond. If the top WR receives $22 mil or more then the top CB should be comparable.

Ja's cap hit for this year will be somewhere around 7.5 million(Once all details of contract are official.) Down from the 13.2 million that his cap hit was. Estimate of about 5.7 mill in cap savings. Some are saying 6 million possibly, but I'll stick with somewhere around 5.7.

The Packers are set up well for the season in case of the need of emergency signings and etc.

Vikings fans in February: "The Packers are in cap hell and they are going to have to gut the whole team🤣"

Vikings fan today: "The Packers are still 100% our Daddy.😭"

Wondering how much more is guaranteed money?
There has to be more guaranteed money , other than the 30 mil signing bonus.
Just have to wait for final numbers.

Whatever they are, good move by The Packers to lock him up.

I love this. I thought he was going to be another great player that walks in FA. Glad to see he’s locked in Green Bay for a while. Best corner we’ve had since Woodson.

Florio speaks:

Per a source with knowledge of the contract, here are the terms:

1. Signing bonus: $30 million.

2. 2022 base salary: $1.076 million.

3. 2023 offseason 90-man roster bonus: $11.45 million.

4. 2023 offseason workout bonus: $700,000.

5. 2023 per-game roster bonus: $650,000 total.

6. 2023 base salary: $1.2 million.

7. 2024 offseason 90-man roster bonus: $8 million.

8. 2024 offseason workout bonus: $700,000.

9. 2024 per-game roster bonus: $650,000 total.

10. 2024 base salary: $6.65 million.

11. 2025 offseason workout bonus: $700,000.

12. 2025 per-game roster bonus: $650,000 total.

13. 2025 base salary: $16.15 million.

14. 2026 offseason workout bonus: $700,000.

15. 2026 per-game roster bonus: $650,000 total.

16. 2026 base salary: $18.15 million.

17. 2023-26 Pro Bowl escalator: $250,000 per year.

Alexander was already due to earn $13.294 million in 2022, with another $782,000 for a seventeenth game.

The deal pays out a total of $98.076 million over five years, if all per-game roster bonuses are earned. That’s an average at signing of $19.615 million.

Removing the salary he was due to earn in 2022, the contract has a new-money average of $21 million.

Only the signing bonus is guaranteed. The Packers continue to refuse to fully guarantee money beyond the first year of a veteran, non-quarterback contract. Only the Bengals do the same. The Steelers broke that precedent last year with T.J. Watt‘s contract.

It looks like the only thing Florio can complain about is that the Packers are one of two teams that do not give out tons of guaranteed money needlessly.

Super stoked that Jaire is gonna be around for the long term. I think he could be one the greats at CB in league history when it's all said and done.

2023 offseason 90-man roster bonus: $11.45 million.

Jesus Christ. That's a hell of an incentive not to do anything crazy in the offseason.

Zero2Cool (1h) : Time taken to get picked:

Zero2Cool (1h) : New Pope: 2 days | Shedeur Sanders: 3 days

Zero2Cool (2h) : Collin Whitchurch @cowhitchurch · 1h Chicago got a pope before it got a QB to throw for 4,000 yards in a season.

Mucky Tundra (2h) : New Pope from Chicago; in other words, the city produced a Pope before a 4000 yard passer

beast (7-May) : My first name starts with R and my beer belly is quite voluptuous! Thank you for noticing 😏

Zero2Cool (7-May) : beast, you're just one R from being voluptuous.

Zero2Cool (7-May) : And now some Packers blogger is like Doubs to Steelers makes sense!!!!

Zero2Cool (7-May) : You saw me Tweet???

beast (7-May) : Supposedly Steelers will be trading WR George Pickens to the Cowboys for a 3rd and late round pick swap

Zero2Cool (5-May) : Ravens release Justin Tucker, err D. Watson Jr?

Zero2Cool (5-May) : Cardinals have signed TE Josiah Deguara.

Zero2Cool (5-May) : If I were to "Google" it, then I wouldn't read it in your words.

Martha Careful (5-May) : Yes, in the military S2’s work on IPB, PERCEC, PHYSEC and IO

dfosterf (4-May) : FYI civilian companies swipe the S2 designation from the military. S2 is the intelligence branch up to brigade level. G2 is division level.

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning

Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?

beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.

beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.

dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition

Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.

beast (4-May) : NFL really needs to fix their position labeling issue, but I don't think they care

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Packers did not activate the fifth-year options for linebacker Quay Walker, with the goal of signing him to a contract extension.

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Matthew Golden spoke with Randall Cobb before draft. Looked like chance encounter.

packerfanoutwest (1-May) : from a head left turn?

packerfanoutwest (1-May) : someone drunk?

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Unlikely.

dfosterf (30-Apr) : How long until Jeff Sperbeck's family sues John Elway ?

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.

beast (30-Apr) : Sounds like P Luke Elzinga has a rookie try out opportunity from the Titans

dfosterf (30-Apr) : Luke Elzinga Punter Oklahoma stil unsigned. Green Bay has been mentioned as good fit

beast (30-Apr) : The Packers re-signed three exclusive rights free agents WR Melton, P Whelan and RB Wilson.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : February 5, 2002 (age 23) ok no. packers.com is wrong

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Micah Robinson is only 19??

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : 6 first rounders on Packers defense now

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : LB Isaiah Simmons. Signed. Called it!!! Oh yeah!

Martha Careful (29-Apr) : ty bboystyle...fat fingers

bboystyle (29-Apr) : Tom*

Martha Careful (28-Apr) : RIP Packer Safety Tim Brown

beast (27-Apr) : Yeah, but also some of the wording suggestions Jax only pranked called the QB, not the others... and if he had an open spreadsheet & 3 calls

beast (27-Apr) : Thank goodness he's not leaving the Turtle in the Red Tide

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Cowboys 1st round pick Tyler Booker will indeed be bringing his pet turtle to Dallas with him

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : that contained all prospects info and contact

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : beast, according the Falcons statement Jax came across it on an ipad. If I had to guess, probably an open spread sheet or something

Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Simmons put up an emoji with cheese.

beast (27-Apr) : Not sure anyone is interested in Isaiah Simmons... Collin Oliver might of taken his potential slot

beast (27-Apr) : I'm going with Jax Ulbrich is not telling the whole truth... he accidentally came across it? Why would a defensive coordinator have a QB #?

Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : He's not that great, but final piece of the script.\

Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : If we add Isaiah Simmons, book your Super Bowl tickets

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Colts 1st round TE Tyler Warren also got prank called, was that Jax Ulbrich as well?

Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Jax Ulbrich, Jeff Ulbrich’s son, released an apology for his role in the Shedeur Sanders prank call.
