 Whenever a new deal comes out whenever it's announced that a player got a new contract We always hear the max value first We we hear the highest that that contract could potentially be we've seen it so many times again like with Patrick Mahomes It was said that the the chief sign Patrick Mahomes to a 10-year 500 million dollar contract and all of us were like whoa 500 minutes half for Billy, baby but of course there are a lot of Stipulations and incentives and whatnot and escalators to get him to 500 meal But it's unlikely that he hits all of them like one of them was being in a Super Bowl every year And even though it doesn't feel like Patrick Mahomes. It's pretty much in a Super Bowl every year He hasn't been so he's not really gonna get the 500 million dollars, but he will certainly get most of it but with Odell Beckham, Jr When it was announced at the Raven sign Odell Beckham, Jr. To a one-year 18 million dollar contract a lot of people were like whoa, that's But we had to wait because we got to find out what the guarantees are And what the real money is that Odell Beckham, Jr. Is getting and when it came out that 15 million at 18 million was getting it was still like whoa but now the extra details the exact incentives of this deal They came out so now We know how much the Ravens are really paying Odell Beckham, Jr. And if it's really likely that he'll hit these incentives or not Honestly, it's not a bad deal at all for Odell And he got all the motivation in the world to get to go from 15 mil to 18 mil now Let's let's look at the details. So this is from Mike Florio. He said a para source with knowledge of the terms Beckham can earn an extra one million dollars based on three categories, so that's one million per category and These because again 15 mil guarantee. So that's out of the way 15 mil We ain't got to worry about that. But how does it go from 15 to 18? So one mil based on three categories reception receiving yards and receiving touchdowns. So receptions is how many catches receiving yards is how many yards you got from all the catches that you made and then receiving touchdowns is How many touchdowns you scored catching the ball Not running the ball not throwing the ball because we don't all they'll do he can do both of those things So if it's an end around and Odell runs it in for a touchdown that's not a receiving touchdown if Odell Beckham, Jr. Decides he wants to be QB to and launch that ball down the field like James crochet That's not a receiving touchdown for him either. So those things are important But anyway, it says the formula for receptions goes like this for receptions one. He gets 250,000 if he gets 30 catches So you get 30 catches boom you get extra 250,000 To he gets 500,000 for 40 catches. So you get 10 more catches than the 30 and you get 500,000 So that's the half a meal Three he gets 750,000 for 50 catches. So you get 50 catches Forget about the first two or you add the first two together actually you get 50 catches though You get 750,000 but if you get 60 catches 60 catches then you get a meal You get a meal you get 60 catches there goes a meal So that goes from 15 mil to 16 mil if you get 60 catches But now here's a kicker because there's a little twist that actually makes it even better for Odell Beckham See Ray was my son really loved Odell Beckham, Jr. Because they like look when we're gonna put this contract in a way We want you to earn these incentives almost because it says or so again For 30 catches 250,000 for 40 catches 500,000 for 50 catches 750,000 or for 60 catches he gets a meal or If he leaves the team in receptions He gets the meal so he could have 44 receptions But if everybody else if the next highest person on the team In catches has 43 Then Odell gets his meal If he leaves the team of receptions he gets a meal based on on on the reception So it's like man. That's that's great. That's great for him So then the next part for receiving yardage is this if he gets 250 receiving yards He gets 250,000 if he gets 500 yards then he gets 500,000 if he gets 750 yards he gets you guess the 750,000 and if he gets a thousand yards Then he gets a meal So that's that's it. That's that second meal right there So all you got to do is get a stack get a thousand yards and he gets a meal a million dollars Added to his whatever the added to the 15 mil guaranteed But again another kicker Same thing as before or if he leads the team in receiving yards So again if Odell Beckham jr. Has 998 yards just to use it as an example and The next closest receiver has 997 yards receiving Odell Beckham jr. Gets his meal He gives us an extra million dollars if Odell Beckham jr. Had 500 receiving yards and The next closest receiver had 499 Odell Beckham jr. Gets his extra million dollars in cash So again the way that they set this thing up. It's like hey Odell. No, no hit these incentives, please please So it's like It's a nice deal With nice incentives and it's like it's a motivating deal too like hey, you just got to show up If you show up. Oh, yeah, you'll be straight and And then he got to get the ball thrown his way too and hopefully in a more Pass-oriented offense are still incorporating the run not forgetting about the run But just being more diverse with the passing game This should be something that they should be able to do and of course with health as well That's the biggest thing right there So then the last one for receiving touchdowns is this is 250,000 for three so you catch three touchdowns. You don't have to 250k cool You catch five touchdowns. You get 500k You catch seven touchdowns. You get 750k But for one meal, you got to catch nine touchdowns. So nine touchdowns gets you the meal That's not out. That was a little harder down now. It is 17 games It's a passing league Again Ravens would have to change a lot of stuff for Odell to get nine receiving touchdowns Who's the last receiver? That had A good amount of touchdowns like that for the Ravens. Was it Hollywood in 2019? How much the Hollywood having 2019? I don't even remember but I'm really trying to think the last time I received a hat like a good amount of touchdowns for the Ravens. I Can't think of it right now and maybe somebody slipped my mind that I just I'm really forgetting about but I'm sure y'all Correct me in the comment section. But anyway, um, so again for the receiving touchdowns 250k for three five receiving touchdowns He gets 500k he gets 750k for seven receiving touchdowns or if he gets nine receiving touchdowns He gets a meal or I'm sure you guessed it by now if he leaves the team in receiving touchdowns He gets the meal so again Structure of this is great. It's great for Odell It's great for the Ravens cuz I mean with teams when it comes to these incentives. They don't want to pay the incentives That's why they throw them in there because they incentives and they're like I we get to keep more of our money if the players don't hit these incentives But at the same time you got to look at it like oh well if he does hit those incentives, that'll be good for us Because that'll mean we'll have we're having more success. Well, it'll most likely mean that we're having more success through the air He's scoring more touchdowns. He's getting more yards. He's getting more catches. He's producing So it's a win-win for both parties when it comes to this So I do appreciate the way that this contract is structured Again, it is it's big month the guarantee part is big money But with the non guarantee part Odell got a chance to make the money even bigger Love y'all team keep it clean appreciate y'all and we out
