I would be shocked if his cap hit is more than 1/4th of that 60M in 2017 with the way contracts are written today. I'd say you should expect a 6 year deal that in reality is a 4 year deal with the last two years having no guaranteed money high base salary and is only there to help spread out the 20M+ he will see in signing bonus and give them the chance to rework the deal and extend him after 4 if he is living up to the contract.

We'll see, with that much cap space and how our GM seems to like to operate, I wouldn't be shocked if they don't go the route of "dodging" a big to moderately big cap hit the first 2 years. His deal is going to be very interesting to watch how it's structured anyways...with the guaranteed money a major factor.

Oh I expect the second year to have a cap hit in excess of 20M, just not the first year.

It will obviously be the biggest decision of the offseason for us. Even more so than which receiver (if any) to keep, or how to spend in FA on the defensive side of the ball (hoping more through the draft, but we'll see)

Eli Manning looks like absolute shit. I don't watch many Giants games, but has he been this bad all year?
