VaBeach_Eagle Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 That's awesome for him, to go from having never seen an American Football game in his life, to 4 years, $64 Million and starting LT in what, 4 years? 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
time2rock Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Great move!! He’s going to be a very good LT for a long time! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheesesteakNBeer Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Good to lock him up, he plays well this year he could of cost alot more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first thought was this guy hasn’t played a full season as a LT before and this probably means Dillard will get moved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike030270 Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 We haven't had a lot of luck signing players for potential. Hopefully he works out and stays healthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EazyEaglez Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Definitely earned. Good move by the FO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Be interesting to see how the deal is structured with less than 10 million available under this and next years cap. His cap number this year will increase significantly with the pro rated signing bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bwestbrook36 Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Great news! And when he out plays this contract and asks for more in a year everyone will piss and moan about him not playing out his contract 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GroundAttack Posted September 11, 2021 Author Share Posted September 11, 2021 Jeff Stoutland is the one who should get the most credit for this 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bwestbrook36 Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 I would have waited 1 more year a full year. These early contracts bite us in the ass way to many times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JP HOF Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 I like Mailata a lot but that deal is outrageous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LacesOut Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Good job, FO. And no team wants Dillard. He will just be a backup on the Birds until he is cut/released. Reminds me of the Fireman Danny Watkins draft pick. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That deal is a bargain. He is the 15th highest paid tackle by yearly average, and when the meat of his contract kicks in after new guys get their deals, he will not even be top 25-30.

Yes if we are gonna give credit to Stoutland for Mailata then we have to give criticism for Dillard. They are both talented but, one had a different mindset then the other to compete and get better. Stoutland can't control the mindset of players. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
