Per a league source, the deal that Bowman accepted includes less than $8 million in fully-guaranteed money, via a $7.5 million signing bonus and the balance of his $540,000 base salary for 2012. But the deal contains millions more in salary guaranteed for injury only, for now.

Niners are rock solid top to bottom as an organization. Who knew it would get to this point so quickly? Hard to imagine just two years ago, us fans were questioning the validity of Trent Baalke as the new GM and we still hadn't found our coach or finalized the deal on a new stadium.

Now we have locked up another bonafide superstar for 5 years without ever having the threat of losing him to the competition. Unbelievable!

They basically insured the guy for injury but didn't pay him what he's worth...fair deal imo. If he's healthy and plays more than 5 years he'll break the bank then...but he won't be hurting no matter what happens to him. For the niners they locked up talent for 5 years...only risk is salary cap if he is hurt. Worth it.

Great job! Pat and Bo together for a long time. In other news, Running backs form the other 31 teams have decided to protest against the signing

He could've got a lot more guaranteed money(not just in case of injury) on the open market. Paraag simply owned Rosenhaus in this deal.

Name a few that are playing better than Bowman? Daryl Washington is the only name that I can think of right now.

Bowman will be in the Pro Bowl this year. Book it.

I applaud NaVorro Bowman for putting the team first. This really goes to show you how much these players enjoy playing here now. I love how Jed has made this a great organization in just a couple short years. Eddie must have good advice!

(Please update to title to spell NaVorro's name correctly, just a peeve...)

This and if it's a 5 year extension isn't it through the 2018 season and not till 2018 which would mean after the 2017 season in my mind.
