124 Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 GIANTS LOCK UP JACOBS Posted by Mike Florio on February 25, 2009, 6:00 p.m. With running back Brandon Jacobs already limited by the franchise tag, the Giants made it even harder for him to leave by signing him to a four-year, $25 million contract. According to Adam Schefter of NFL Network and Mike Garafolo of the Newark Star-Ledger, the deal includes $13 million in guaranteed money, and pays out $15 million in the first two years. At first blush, it looks a little light to us. Especially since Jacobs might not have much tread left on the tires in four years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustInFudge Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Its a smart deal for the Giants, pay him of the years he should definitely be productive and decrease his salary for the questionable years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sperm Edwards Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 I knew that used to be the case but every year things change with the CBA. Thanks Sperm. The deadline to franchise a player in 2009 has already come and gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
