Per Tom Pelissero: Torrey Smith actually a 1 year deal

[IronEagle]

If he's correct they only gave Smith a $500K signing bonus.

Torrey Smith's deal with #Eagles is actually a 1-year, $5 million pact with two $5M options. He got a $500K bonus.

Love that deal

Love that deal

Yup, no cap or dead money hit if they choose not to exercise options. But have options to keep him if he pans out.

You're guaranteed max effort and production from both these guys. Zero risk. Pretty shocked we (not they) were able to do that with Jeffrey when he had long term offer. Guess playing with I am Sam is every receivers worst nightmare!

Great deal.

Love that deal

....I like it.

I think it was the Wentz factor

I can see why both these guys would like to play with a young QB who has the potential Wentz does, if Sammy sleeves was still QB this could never happen.

[Raptor]

Even better.....

...no picks were lost.


Howie still has ammo to load up in the draft.
