A dude with a connection on another board who has proven to be right about things like this in the past says that Sanchez's contract is done.

If true, great sign. This kid is just so happy to be a Jet. Obviously didn't have a care about waiting for the 4th and/or 6th players drafted to sign first to set a market and try and squeeze out all the extra money he can. Awesome how excited he is.

Sanchez just passed a major test as far as I'm concerned.

At least we do not have the pre-training camp anguish of a 1st round holdout. Sanchez can just concentrate on football. It is amazing how many agents do a disservice to their players by having them holdout lose invaluable time and never catch up. Gholston could be exhibit A in this argument.

ITS OFFICIAL!!! :yahoo:

Now we can focus 100% on football.

BTW: I love the fact that Sanchez didn't play hardball. He really loves being a Jet and it's about football & the NYJ's first, and money second. Atta boy, Mark!!!!

My source is reporting 5 years 25 mil. Not that bad.

Is this the source that said we were in love with Mark Sanchez and that we were trading up for him, or the source that said we were in love with Jason Campbell and trading for him?

That's important information.:D

"ESPN has learned the deal is for five years and $50 million (it can max out at $60 million) and includes $28 million in guarantees. That would make him the highest-paid player in Jets history."

Ok, that's ridiculous. What has he done to get anywhere near $50 mill much less $60. He gets $28 if he never takes a snap so if he starts he'll get what? $35 or $40??

Jets reach agreement with QB Sanchez

ESPN.com news services

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- The New York Jets have reached a contract agreement with quarterback Mark Sanchez.

The Jets and Sanchez agreed to a five-year deal worth $50 million, with $28 million in guarantees, a source told ESPN senior NFL analyst Chris Mortensen. The deal could be worth as much as $60 million.

Sanchez was the fifth overall pick in the NFL draft in April after leading Southern California to a Rose Bowl victory over Penn State with a record-setting performance.

The quarterback is competing with veteran Kellen Clemens for the Jets' starting job, up for grabs after the retirement of Brett Favre.

The Jets made the announcement during Wednesday's minicamp.
