That Woods deal is pretty much exactly what Allen should get.

You've got a good point. And the Bears have reportedly been okay with $16mil/yr. The Woods deal averages 17mil/yr. Arob is a younger player with 1 less year in the NFL, and the better player of the two. ARob has been a Pro Bowl player and Woods never made it. I would rather have AR over Woods. JMO.

Woods is pretty freakin good and if he didn't play in the system he does he'd probably produce more than A-Rob. As it is, they're basically the same player.

I think you have got to top Woods`deal. I could see a 17.5M AAV based on what I had proposed earlier. Instead of 5/90M it now becomes 5/87.5M with a cool 48M guaranteed (Which is 54% of the total amount). So now it becomes:
5 year 87.5M with 48M guaranteed. 25M signing bonus (5 x 5M CAP hit).
Year 1 (2021): 2M salary, 1M roster bonus - 7M CAP hit Year 2 (2022): 5M salary, 2M roster bonus, 1M workout bonus - 13M CAP hit Year 3 (2023): 9M salary, 1M roster bonus, 15M CAP hit Years 4 & 5 (2024/25): Only 5M CAP hits.
Overall I think the signing bonus will be a bit lower but guaranteed yearly salary and yearly bonuses will be higher and the overall guarantee will be in the 40-45M range.
