Less money?  Lol. 12.5 to 13 mil per year would be the most he has ever gotten by a good margin

That's 3 years away.  Still alot of football left to be played before we have to make that decision

The guarantees are more important than the average annual salary number.  He’s probably looking at somewhere between $25M to $35M in guaranteed money.  This is based on performance as well as the cap increasing significantly.  Free agents will all want their share of that increase. 

Spotrac does provide an estimated market value for players, but Engram’s appears to not have been updated since last offseason.

EDIT: actually, the guarantees are probably more like $30M to $40M if we’re assuming that at least the first two years are fully guaranteed which I would assume will be the case and probably a portion of the 3rd year. That would put him in that Kittle/Andrews category or close to it, but keep in mind those deals were done in prior years with a smaller total league cap number.
