Okay, here’s my attempt at writing a blog post in the style you described, about the “chris olave contract”:
So, I was messing around online, as you do, and I got curious about how much money these NFL rookies are making. Specifically, I was looking at Chris Olave, the wide receiver for the Saints. I mean, the guy’s good, but what’s his deal really worth?
First, I did was hit up some of the usual spots – you know, the sports news sites. I skimmed a few articles, but they were all kinda surface-level, just throwing around big numbers. I wanted the details, the nitty-gritty.
Digging into the Details
Then I went a bit deeper. I found this one site that breaks down player contracts. It wasn’t pretty, mostly just a big table of numbers, but it was exactly what I was looking for!
I started poking around the contract. I saw that his contract is like 4-year deal. Okay, standard rookie stuff, I figured. Then I saw the total value, a shade over $19 million. Not bad for a 20-something, right?
- Signing Bonus: It’s big number for me!
- Guaranteed Money: That’s the interesting to look at, all of it.
- Yearly Breakdown: It has base salaries, roster bonuses and some other stuff.
I am not a finacial expert, so I’m not going to pretend I understand all the cap hit stuff and how it impacts the team’s finances. But just looking at the raw numbers, Olave’s got a pretty sweet deal, especially considering the guaranteed money.
The amount of guaranteed part of the contract is the most impressive to look at.
So, yeah, that’s what I did today. I went down a rabbit hole of NFL contract details. It’s not rocket science, but it’s kinda interesting to see how these things are structured. And hey, it’s always fun to think about all that money!
