The #Seahawks four-year extension for safety Earl Thomas pays him $40 million base value with $27.725 million guaranteed, source says.

That's a great deal. I was expecting him to get a couple mil more a year. That's my GOAT.

 

[LastEmperor2k2]

Great deal.

Great player.

One of the few players who actually seemed to give his team a discount

 

[bear27]

Best player in that secondary fukk what ya heard.Great to lock him in to that deal.

 

[Brady-Carter]

Damn, that is a hell of a deal for the Hawks.

lol, this would be at page 10 if it was Sherm. I love my boy Sherm, but Earl Thomas deserves more attention since he's the better player.

 

[SubLyminalz]

he deserves every bit of that money he got

Im still salty we took anthony troll davis over earl

 

[EducatedBrothaFromTheBank]

good for him... young enough to get a decent contract after this as well when he's 28-29.

 

[Kenny_Powers]

I'm loving this deal more and more.

Earl Thomas gonna go down as the GOAT safety. Even Pete said Earl is the best safety he's ever coached and he has coached Polamalu.

And before any of you say anything, Pete is not biased towards current players. He had no problem admitting Polamalu was the best player he coached in his SC days and we got a couple of SC players on our team.

He would have gotten 14 mil a year from a desperate team in the open market.
