The details of Terry McLaurin’s contract are out, revealing a masterclass in negotiation by GM Adam Peters and a huge bet by the star receiver.
This bonus episode goes beyond the headlines to decode the real structure of the deal. Discover why the actual base value is $29M AAV, not the rumored higher numbers, and how the contract is a massive “prove-it” deal loaded with incentives tied to elite performance and team success. We’ll also break down the “golden handcuffs” built into the contract, explaining the massive dead cap hits and the earliest practical point the team could move on from the deal.
Plus, we answer your leftover mailbag questions about the negotiation! Why did the deal take so long to complete? What was the team’s biggest point of leverage? And could the offense struggle early as McLaurin gets back up to speed with a new QB?
