The XFL ratings won't come anywhere near NFL ratings.

Because they have an inferior brand, inferior talent and overall inferior product.

We have a XFL team in my market, and I don't plan on watching at all.

On topic, yes, Mahomes is the best QB in the NFL. I still love me some Russell Wilson, and it's good to have Lamar as a backup plan unless I trade him for a nice haul. But no argument from me that Mahomes is the clear #1 in both fantasy and reality. Especially if you get bonus points for length of TD's. His deep ball skills paired with their WR speed is a lethal combo.

This guy is the safest play in Dynasty, with ceiling/floor, and he's clearly the best QB in real football. Anyone arguing that doesn't have a leg to stand on at this point.

But Lamar Jackson is so much fun to watch play. You're just a hater.

It's not like Mahomes is boring watch either

I bet it's a floor of like 450m but tied to cap.

We're getting into baseball type deals now. Sheesh!

A unique deal for a unique player. I'm sure others will eventually get deals like this but they will be few and far between.

Interested to see if he gets a raise the final 2 years of his rookie deal. As a Raiders fan, I hope so. The sooner he makes an astronomical salary, the sooner other teams can compete vs them.

I'll be surprised if his guarantees are above 150-200m, just because you never know what could happen in 6 yrs.

I'm also inclined to guess it's 10 years, $300m, fully guaranteed.

No idea what we'll see here.

I'd imagine his agent left room for him to renegotiate at some point.

Agreed he is a unique player, but now it sets an actual bar for people to see. Now when others see that bar they always want to go over it. No one at this current time is likely to even come close to that bar, but eventually someone will surpass it. Then we have the next up and it just keeps building the snowball effect. Mahomes (and others) deserve those bigger pieces of the pie for sure and I'm happy they're getting paid.

over 400M according to Schefter
