$4.4 gross for a lifetime? Probably not. Especially w/ the NY taxes.
On track to well out-earn Piersbacher. Just sayin' ... (sour grapes ... sure)
you are on to something here. a run of the mill
unrated recruit usually ends up a more valuable product coming out of iowa than...How do you come to $3M net? Marginal tax rate is going to be pushing 40%. Not to mention fees not associated w/ "regular" income he needs to pay - agent fees (though typically deductible), recovery expenses (also typically a deduction), taxes on non-cash compensation, financial adviser (the Jock Tax looks like a nightmare), etc.
As a bills fan, the lines need help! Ike needs to stay healthy and I think he can get a lot of snaps. Fun to be able to have the former Hawks on the team!!
Ross is an awesome dude. He and Ike actually do offseason training together.
Not indicating that he wasn't.
I realize that. The point is that his money will go much further in his hometown that it would in New York.
I may be incorrect, but I believe that the second highest paid player on the team is often the Left tackle.
