NFL Media's Aditi Kinkhabwala reported Tuesday that the team and the star cornerback have agreed to terms on a five-year contract extension slated to keep him in Lake Erie through the 2019 season, per a source apprised of the negotiations. The deal includes $45 million in guaranteed money. ProFootballTalk first reported the news. The Browns have had a busy offseason, to say the least. Following a free-agent spree that included the addition of safety Donte Whitner and a draft-day trade that yielded cornerback Justin Gilbert with the eighth overall pick, Haden will anchor a revamped secondary in first-year coach Mike Pettine's "hybrid" defense. The 25-year-old Haden is coming off a season where he earned his first Pro Bowl berth and established himself as one of the premier cover men in the league. Haden's new deal is welcome news for the Browns, who are currently dealing with a potential lengthy suspension for No. 1 wide receiver Josh Gordon due to a positive drug test, NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported Friday.

He is a great player and now we will be seeing him twice a year for a long time... 45 million guaranteed though... wow A total of $45 million is guaranteed. Of that total, $23 million is fully guaranteed, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter. http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/10926263/joe-haden-cleveland-browns-agrees-contract-extension Still a lot of dough, but the difference between $23 and $45 is likely "semi" guaranteed roster/workout bonuses like the Bengals are trying to get Andy to agree to.

bubba Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 Man sues Steelers' Adams over carjacking claim May. 13, 2014 2:17 PM EDT You are here Home » Mike Adams » Man sues Steelers' Adams over carjacking claim PITTSBURGH (AP) One of three men acquitted last month of trying to carjack the Pittsburgh Steelers' Mike Adams sued the lineman Tuesday, saying Adams lied when he claimed the man had a gun and threatened Adams. Adams and Allegheny County prosecutors claimed Dquay Means, 26, threatened Adams with a gun when he exited a restaurant about 3 a.m. June 1, and attempted to steal his car. Another of the defendants allegedly stabbed Adams instead, and the men ran away. Adams was hospitalized for four days. The defendants argued at their trial last month that the encounter wasn't a carjacking but a fight that began when a drunken Adams knocked food out of the hands of one the men. Means and Jerrell Whitlock, 27, the man who accused of stabbing Adams, were acquitted of attempted homicide, aggravated assault, conspiracy and attempted robbery. Means was convicted only of escape, which involved his flight from police once he knew he was wanted. Michael Paranay, 26, the man who claimed Adams knocked his food from him, was also acquitted of all charges against him. Paranay's attorney argued at trial that Adams was the aggressor and "obliterated drunk, aggressive and out of control." The lawsuit echoes Means' trial claims that Adams' version of events changed and that he had an incentive to lie because he was drunk, which Adams denies. Neither Adams nor his agent could be reached for comment on the lawsuit. According to court papers, Adams initially told police Means pulled a gun from his waistband and held him at gunpoint. Adams later testified that Means merely took the gun from his pocket and never raised it. Means' attorneys have argued that Adams knew he would be in trouble with the team for starting a drunken fight and, therefore, had to come up with a different version of events. The Steelers drafted Adams in the second round in 2012 out of Ohio State after his stock dropped due to testing positive for marijuana at the NFL combine. The Steelers had planned to pass on Adams entirely, but he persuaded general manager Kevin Colbert that the pot test was an aberration. Colbert has said the Steelers drafted Adams subject to certain stipulations, which the team has never disclosed. "Michael Adams was fearful of losing what he had in the NFL and made it all up, at least as pertains to Mr. Means," Means' attorney Monte Rabner said Tuesday. The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages for false arrest and defamation, among other claims, and because Means spent nearly 11 months in jail until his acquittal. He's on house arrest awaiting sentencing on the escape charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBandJoeyV Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 Sorry what's the difference between guaranteed and fully guaranteed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|kennethmw| Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 Sorry what's the difference between guaranteed and fully guaranteed? Generally, it means that a portion of the guarantee is only guaranteed against injury. For example, lets say the first 23 mill that is guaranteed pays out in the first two years, and the next two years are at 22 million, 11 mill a year. If the team cuts him in year three or four, they don't have to pay the guaranteed money that year, but if he got hurt in year 2, they would be on the hook for both years.

scharm Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 Sorry what's the difference between guaranteed and fully guaranteed?Typically fully gauranteed portions have been signing bonuses that you get year 1 and maybe 2. Partial Guaranteed have timing involved like roster bonuses that are paid on March (mostly start of new league year), but a team can cut before then and not pay. Probably agent talk to market the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squirrlnutz Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 That 2nd round Kony Ealy draft pick is looking better all the time. Obviously more info still to come out but the 911 calls have been released, Hardy called 911 on his GF and his call was the first reported call. Its like 8 minutes long and he's hiding in a bathroom while she's screaming and freaking the fuck out in the background. He says she's coked up or something, keeps attacking him and won't let him leave. I have a feeling when the dust settles it will be a blip on the radar.
