Lesson learned. When you cheat drag out it so you have enough time to renegotiate your contract and avoid the consequences.
Brady is done fighting the legal case. Just going to sit out for first 4 games.

The reasoning was simple: He chose to miss the first four games instead of potentially being forced to miss four games at some later point in the season.

If Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg had granted a stay of the suspension, the stay would have expired the moment the Supreme Court decided not to take the appeal. And if that had happened at any point before the end of the team’s season, Brady would have been yanked off the field for four games at that moment.

So Brady, as a source with knowledge of the situation explained it to PFT, specifically opted to take the four-game suspension to start the season — an approach that coach Bill Belichick surely preferred. This way, Jimmy Garoppolo can be prepared to handle the first 25 percent of the season, which also happens to be the portion of the season when offensive lines are working out the kinks that come from reduced offseason and training camp practice time.

Of course, there’s a chance Brady’s suspension ultimately would have been overturned. Brady wasn’t willing to take that slim chance, given the very strong likelihood that he would have been suspended four games at some point during the season, with one or more of those games possibly landing in the postseason.

Basically decided it was better to serve the 4 at the beginning of the season instead of having to serve it at the end of the season.

This piece of shit bitch decides to stop fighting his suspension AFTER I went ahead and put a year wearing this bullshit on the line?

Fuck everything
I thought the bet was the Pats not making the playoffs.. Which again every single one of us said not to do this. That was your own stupidity here Grova.. So I don't feel bad for you in regards to that.

6 years at 114.5, not bad really. About 19 mil per average.

Wonder if the 70 million is fully guaranteed.

Miller's full guarantee: $42m. Mliler was smart to wait till Cox contract was finished. Also beats Vernon's $40.5m.
 
I'll never understand why people always start freaking out when they first hear contract details, it's never as bad as it first sounds and yet people go through this every single contract smh.
 
Miller contract details:

http://www.9news.com/sports/nfl/den...ches-agreement-on-six-year-contract/274328718

2016: $23 million signing bonus, $2 million in salary and workout bonus, other bonuses. Total $25 million (fully guaranteed). The year one payout was the only metric he did not surpass Philadelphia defensive tackle Fletcher Cox, who got $27.3 million upfront with his recent contract extension
2017: $17 million in salary, bonuses (fully guaranteed). Total is $42 million after two years. Cox got $36.3 million guaranteed after year two
2018: $19 million in salary, bonuses. (Injury-only guarantee, converts to full guarantee in eight months, or March 17). Total is $61 million after three years. Cox got $55.55 million guaranteed after year three
2019: $17.5 million in salary, bonuses. (Injury-only guarantee but $9 million converts to full guarantee a year earlier, or in March, 2018). Total is $78.5 million after four years with $70 million guaranteed. Cox got $63.3 million guaranteed after year four
2020: $17.5 million in salary. $500,000 work out bonus (no guarantees). Total is $96.5 million after five years
2021: $17.5 million in salary. $500,000 work out bonus (no guarantees). Total is $114.5 million after six years

It works out to $42 million fully guaranteed at signing, $61 million fully guaranteed by March 2017, and $70 million fully guaranteed by March 2018.

1. $23 million signing bonus;

2. $2 million “salary and workout bonus other bonuses” for 2016, all guaranteed. (It’s technically too late to earn workout bonuses; the offseason program is over.)

3. $17 million in salary and bonuses for 2017, fully guaranteed.

4. $19 million salary and bonuses for 2018, guaranteed for injury only at signing and fully guaranteed on March 2017.

5. $17.5 million in salary and bonuses, $9 million of which is guaranteed for injury only at signing, in 2019. The $9 million becomes fully guaranteed in March 2018.

6. A total of $36 million in salary and bonuses for 2020 and 2021 combined. None of which is guaranteed.

It works out to $42 million fully guaranteed at signing, $61 million fully guaranteed by March 2017, and $70 million fully guaranteed by March 2018.

As a practical matter, he’ll get the $70 million. If they cut him before March 2017, they’ll have $35.4 million in dead money under the cap. If they cut him before March 2018, they’ll have $32.8 million in dead money under the cap.

So it’s a three-year, $70 million deal with a team option, year-to-year, for the back end at three more years and an extra $44.5 million.
