5 years, $42 mill for Murray

[Sect 236]

$21 mill guaranteed

per Schefter and Mort

[JuTMSY4]

For comparison's sake, McCoys new deal is:
5 years, 40 million, 26.5 guaranteed

[Eagle Road]

$21 mill guaranteed

per Schefter and Mort

So basically it would break down to 3 years at 7 mil, per if you are just looking at the guaranteed money, I doubt very much he makes it past 30 or so.


McCoy would be at 9 mil, per on guaranteed, I doubt either of them are in the league after 3 years, with the carries they get.

Just further comparison:

Both will be 27 for the duration of the 2015 season.

McCoy has 6 years in the NFL, Murray has 4

Total carries and receptions (including playoffs):

Murray: 978 & 174 (4 years)
McCoy: 1499 & 309 (6 years)

Add in Matthews and the Eagles have raised their running back spending.

[GroundedBird]

wonder what Dez Bryant is thinking now.

[Eagle Road]

Add in Matthews and the Eagles have raised their running back spending.

Eh, yeah, BUT they only raised it 1 mil and got another warm body? IOW, what happens in Buffalo if Shady goes down 1st game this year? They have put all of their eggs in one basket.




Besides, what was Shady's hit if he stayed here?

Add in Matthews and the Eagles have raised their running back spending.

Per Rotoworld:

Eagles agreed to terms with RB DeMarco Murray on a five-year, $42 million contract.
The deal includes $21 million guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $8.4 million. It's what Murray has been looking for all along, and what Dallas was unwilling/unable to pay. Free agent Ryan Mathews, who was on the verge of signing on the dotted line, now heads back to the open market.

[Eagle In Ohio]

I have to admit

If Murray and matthews can stay healthy, with Sproles added in, that's a pretty good looking backfield.

[JuTMSY4]

except that

they haven't.

Wait

I thought matthews was already done.

[Eagle In Ohio]

Man, missed that somewhere in the mix.

they haven't.

[Eagle Road]

Details were hammered out but had yet to sign.

he never signed the deal...it was only verbally agreed upon.
