Joey Bosa Scores - Locked Up For 5 Years

[Critty]

perhaps they were not planning it in San Francisco, not to late for #BosaTakeOver in LA. Sign SuperMel to a contract that ends when Baby Bosa hits the FA line... Hah one can dream right?

I would call 49ers.
Offer Melvin-DE. 2021 1st&3rd. 2022 1st.
for Nick Bosa.

A lot to give up. Kinda. But.....you get a younger better player than Melvin.

You wont have the 2021 & 2022 1st rd pick to pay money to. That money goes to Nick on a contract extension..you are very unlikely to get a player of his caliber with either of the 1st. Your really just using your 2021 1st to select Nick and it cost you a 1st and a 3rd.

You add Melvin because his contract is up after this year. And if that isnt enough. Add Mike Williams to the deal. I think he is overrated and a bit injury prone and his contract will be up in 2021.

i rather put those resources toward getting Nick.
Extending Kennan Allen whose contract is up after this year. And then in another year Derwin needs an extension. And if Hunter Henry has a great year resign him.

Bye bye Melvin & Mike. No problem giving up the two 1st and 3rd.

Its worth it,imo to use those assets to make things happen.

And in the larger scheme. What happens with Keenan and Melvin whose contracts expire. Charger get nothing but bottom 3rd rd comp at best.

Do it TT!!! Go get Nick. And lock up Keenan this year. And the following year lock up Derwin.

[Charge!]

So exciting. I didn't think this would get done. It did.

Nice work, T2!

(Now let's hope they get to play a season.)

I agree..... this shocked me, but in a good way..... not used to seeing Chargers throw NFL leading salaries at many players...... for a few days Fouts was highest paid (till elway signed for slightly more...lol)..... and I assume that LT might have been highest-paid RB at least for a short time at some point in his career....?

Letting Rivers go allowed team to pull off this contract as well as some of our FA adds.....

and if Herbert turns out to be a great QB, Bosa's contract will be about over when Herbert needs a big deal.....

interesting trade ideas and trading guys whose contracts are coming due is also a good way to handle guys that may not deserve huge money.....

LOL...the Bosa brothers playing together would never happen, save for in the twilight of Joey's career....2 100+ million pass rushers on the same team? Maybe late in their careers they could swing it...or right now with Nick on the first contract...but SF would never trade him.

[WindsorUK]

Bosa has been our best player the past few years.
Totally deserves big contract and we totally need him to continue to set the tone for our D if we hope to win.
Well done Bolts!

Say what you want about the Spanos', but you at least gotta give them credit for being the anti Gene Klein on this one

[soutbolt]

Wow. This is awesome. I thought no way was he re upping here.

Big question. Is Joey Bosa the best player in the 2016 draft? Here are the contenders. Where does Bosa rank? What are your rankings? I have to say, it's hard to put any player over Michael Thomas. He is doing things no WR has ever done in the NFL.

#47 Michael Thomas
# 4 Ezekiel Elliot
#5 Jalen Ramsey
#7 DeForest Buckner
#2 Carson Wentz
#165 Tyreek Hill
#1 Jared Goff
#45 Derrick Henry
#37 Chris Jones
#6 Ronnie Stanley
#13 Laremy Tunsil

Dak Prescott (#135) should at least be on the list of candidates.

I think the best players on the list are Tyreek Hill, Michael Thomas and Ezekiel Elliott. Bosa and Ramsey are probably the next two with Prescott, Buckner and Stanley after that.

Not having to pay $35 million in wages this year to those now on other teams, anyone else to lock up with an offer they can't refuse?

Yeh man. That Coryell bunch was maybe 1 or 2 pieces from a championship & he let JJ & Dean walk.
