Quote:$7.1 million signing bonus, man the old regime was [BLEEP].

He showed sparks of a glimmering star but it fizzled out as a dud due to his off field activites.

Quote:Stephon Gilmore, the 10th pick in the draft, received a 7.288 million dollar signing bonus. Morris Claiborne, the pick after Blackmon, received a 10.27 million dollar signing bonus.

You can criticize the previous regime for a great many things, this Blackmon contract is one of the few they should, arguably, be heavily praised for.

Of course. However, the economy lit bulbs will use this as an example of the failures of the prior regime without any semblance of thought to the fact that the bonus paid was the rock bottom minimum it took to even get a deal done. I'm sure they would have been much happier had Blackmon never signed at all....

What lies behind us, and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
