1st Team All Pro - TE George Kittle Thread

My idea was right, half way between top TE and top WR. Well that was 10.5 and 22 (Julio) .That is 11.5 /2 =5.7 added to 10.5 comes out 16.2 so that wasn't too far off. My guess was $17 per. GTD I had no idea. The fact George has been superb in 3 yrs, $30 GTD is the least we could do. So $15 and GTD $30. He should be able to have a terrific life if injured or he gets tired and calls it a career in 5 yrs.

But kittle? No way he is leaving early. 9ers said they would take care of him and made him 50% better deal than the top TE to date. And he is way, way better Than 50% better than the "top TE" making 10.5. Sure looks like a sound, fair deal and we didn't chintz on the GTD. He has earned every penny.

Good on you, George. You deserved it bud and congrats, and also thanks for all you have done and all you are about to do.

It's a team friendly contract, that Paraag Marathe pulled together once again.

Hats off to Kittle for taking less than he obviously wanted. A great team player!

Proof NY85 is David. David is NY85.

With the two key surface-level numbers (AAV and fully-guaranteed money), George Kittle's new contract is most comparable to WR Jarvis Landry's.

Kittle: $15m AAV, $30m FG
Landry: $15.1m AAV, $34m FG

I think you mean best pass catcher not best player.

No, he might be right - who else is better?

Patrick Willis can certainly enter the chat. Although its hard to compare two different positions on opposite sides of the ball. We'll just say he's the best offensive player we've had since TO.

Had Kittle at 14M to begin with but dropped it to 13M as the wait went on longer. All in all I am surprised he got 15M. Good for him. His presence on this team is stronger than anyone else's.
