Charles Johnson agrees to terms *CONFIRMED!* OP updated

So if we had $40 mil in cap, how much does this hit on us?

Gantt said probably between 6-7 million will be the cap hit for the CJ deal so 33 million left?

[Woodcookedbbq]

Gantt says 6 mil away from the cap. I suck at math and am too lazy to figure it out.

must be a 20 million signing bonus.

Can you lock my thread?

The reason I think CJ just hit the lottery was because Atlanta wanted this guy very badly and it was going to take this type of coin to keep him here.

Remember guys: This was one of the main reasons they were comfy with letting Peppers walk LY. If they would have let this guy go, I would have been really pissed.

Thats really not that bad at all I was expecting 10 mil, so I'm excited about this. I honestly think Johnson thought about who it would be easier to chase around, Matt Ryan or Cam Newton.

[Proudiddy]

Agree, a way better deal for a guy on the upswing of his career.

Peppers: 6 yr $91.5 mil ($42 mil garunteed)

vs

Johnson: 6 yr $72 mil ($30 mil garunteed)

And he apparently wants to be here, while the other guy didn't.

Gannt, also said he hadn't seen the contract terms, so he is really just guessing.

It's great he's staying but DAMN did they give him a poo-ton of money. The track record of DE's after getting the big contract is not good.

Good riddance Peppers.

Bears fans saw the real #90 last year in the playoffs when Peppers pulled a Houdini.

Tell Gantt to get his bitch ass back to Winthrop's men tennis.

The man needs his money. No one can say CJ takes plays off. He is always working and is also a threat on the inside. Pay the man....
