**Bears sign DE Jared Allen to 4 year contract**

[Spear]

when I said the money being moved and Allen didn't sign over wekeend; I said something was happening... Got shit for it

To be fair, people gave you shit for misusing the word "irony", unless youre talking about a different thread

 

[SERE Bear]

DAMN.....that is a lot of money for where he is in this stage of his career. I am stunned by this....


BEARS

15 million guaranteed for his contract is all that matters

I’m ok with that

 

[Desperado34]

lol Des, you're acting like you're the only one that suggested Allen becoming a Bear, and as if it's some great feat. You'd think you predicted the second coming.

Shit, by the way you're stroking yourself you probably did.

 

[KittiesKorner]

I don't want to go through eight pages. How does this break down --

3/26/2014: Signed a four-year, $32 million contract. The deal contains $15.5 million guaranteed and can void down to a three-year, $24 million contract.

Can he be launched cutler style with little consequence after only part of the contract or something? Are we committed to using up most of the rest of our cap space this year to the purple hillbilly?

anyone?

 

[Monsieur Tirets]

It's less that what the packers paid Peppers. lol

Agreed. People need to learn how to read NFL contracts.

 

[dabears70]

Does anyone have info on what other teams were offering Allen contract-wise?

John Clayton said Seattle was offering 7 but he didn't say how many years.

 

[Monsieur Tirets]

Ya stuttering prick ya.

 

[Nick80]

anyone?

No, join the circle jerk, this is happening!

I'm going to take a punt and say that could be the Bears done with major FA moves, need one of the capologisits to run their eye over it.

Good move? Dude, its the BEST move they did all Offseason.

You know what this means? It means Phil sees the O is ready to roll this offseason. HE wants to win NOW- window is now.

Sign a guy who has had a double digit sack season pretty much every year lol this is so awesome

No shit. Were you dropped on your head at birth?

A changing of the guard in the #NFCNorth. #69 a Bear! It's looking up for this bunch! Welcome @JaredAllen69.

 

[geneatals]

so what would be the potential starting d line then?

will young and allen be rotating on the edge with houston on the opposite side..

or will houston slide inside occasionally with allen and young on the edges?

so we basically traded on 69 jersey for another right..lol....

indirectly we got allen and they got wooten...I'm okay with that...

 

[Raskolnikov]

Where does Izzy play now?

 

[Desperado34]

Negative.

 

[Hbkrusso]

Great signing by the Bears here. Makes the Willie Young move seem a bit odd in retrospect(however it makes the Peppers move make a ton more sense)......nonetheless a really nice move by Emery. If the Bears can get a DT in the draft, especially in the 1st round you have to like what they've done with the line.

total agreement here couldn't have said it better

 

[Spear]

anyone?

15.5 mil garunteed, all in first two years. So yes, can move on after 2 with no cap ramifications.

 

[Desperado34]

Where does Izzy play now?

I always thought he would have made one hell of a DT IF he played that on a full time basis. He's old though, so who knows. Who knows if he'll make the team

This will get xero to mock you, it's not a proper question apparently and means you are an idiot(not my words).
