He had a very serious knee, (and he depends on his legs quite a bit even in the pocket)he has (for the 2nd time I understand) a back issue!
He has missed probably as many games as he has played in (Just guessing)!
And as we know backs can be a bitch and they CAN be recurring!
Nobody is suggesting that we trade him or make drafting a new QB a priority---- but there are some justifiable reasons to be a little (a tiny bit) cautious.
Haven't heard anybody say it was a bad deal.

I think getting this deal done before:
Goff
Dak
Mahommes
Chicago kid
Was critical. Make them all pay more including the Dak deal.You know Darren if you'd have told me 10 years ago that someday I was going to solve the world's energy problems I'd have said your crazy.... now lets drop this big ball of oil out the window.

At some point Carson won't be highest paid and it wouldn't bother me one bit if Dak got paid much more than Wentz. I don't know Carson one bit so I have no idea if that would bother him but I would hope he would realize that all it does is put the pinch on the cowgirls sal cap.Wait until next year is a terrible philosophy
Hope is not a strategy
RIP

Not sure why Banner has to go on ESPN to declare how great a deal the Eagles got by spending $35 million to control Wentz for 4 years. Maybe he is right, and maybe not, but why tell your franchise QB that you think you pulled one over on him? Sounds like the return of an unchecked ego.Russian reporters to Bobby Clarke: Can you imagine hockey without fights?

I have to view this as a good move. The Eagles went all in on Wentz, so it makes complete sense to get this deal done now, before the market increases, which it surely will. As noted, he needs to stay healthy and earn the money on the field.
That said, I'd really like to be a fly on the wall for Dak's agent and the Jones fellas in big D. I mean, I think we all agree that, from a talent aspect, Carson has a bit of an edge on Dak, but the painful truth is that Dak hasn't missed any time. I think the Jones will want to pay Dak less than Carson, but I think Dak is going to want a bit more.

Here is the contract breakdown for Wentz
Signing bonus: $16,367,683
Base salary/roster bonuses:
2019: $720K
2020: $1.383M & $8M
2021: $3.9M & 10M
2022: $18.5M & $1K
2023: $18M & $5M
2024: $21M & $5M
Team option for 2020: $30M
Incentives/escalators: $16M
2020 is the highest paid year. 30 mill plus the prorated bonus so its around 33 million, then it goes down.
Really a good deal for both sides. Cap hits from 21-24 will most likely be bargains based on others when they get paid and also the cap increases.Were from Philly F in Philly no one likes us we DON'T CARE!

Thanks Taz.
it does make you laugh when the media just focuses on 32 mil a year. It was an extension and had guarantees
very fair deal for both sides IMHO
the hard part for Wentz is he is past the love stage from fans and is now in the expectation stage. Fans are not going to be as easy on him anymore
