Za’Darius Smith signed a prototypical team-friendly deal in March when he switched NFC North teams and joined the Vikings after three seasons with the Packers. That contract had a low cap hit for the Vikings in 2022, only $3,343,136. For a star pass rusher, that is comically low.

His cap hit might be low, but he is earning a lot during his first Vikings season, $10 million, to be exact. The contract was a masterpiece by cap guru Rob Brzezinksi. In addition to his yearly cash payment, Smith can earn money via incentives. The Vikings added to his contract that he would make $500,000 after recording 8.5 sacks, plus an additional $250,000 after 10,5 sacks and another $250,000 after 12.5 sacks. With two games to go, Smith currently has 10 sacks after the first 15 games, so the next couple of games are important for Smith’s pockets.

The incentive was declared “not likely to be earned” because Smith didn’t meet those milestones in the 2021 campaign. Therefore, the incentives count against the 2023 cap space.

2023 is apparently the year they unveil the Sistine Chapel equivalent of masterpieces.

Maybe Phil will notice the "$10 million, to be exact" reference to Smith's first-year earnings here.

In the Buffalo game people were trying to compare JJ's and Diggs' catch.

SC plays of the year JJ with the #1 play...Diggs not in the top 100.

Diggs made a big play on the losing side. JJ snatched impossible from the unyielding will of the gods. Slight difference.

I thought it was cool they kept showing the two catches back to back. And a mild comparison was worthy since they were in the same game.

The backward leaning, one handed catch is becoming quite common, even in college. But wow, JJ's catch had a couple of extra elements/variables that sent it off the charts.

The announcer Joe Davis had a great call/reaction to the play that took it to another level.

That and Bucks call on the Minneapolis miracle are tops for me.

Simply a takeoff on the premise of the post. But LMAO on that from a guy who routinely goes full disassociation with responses! I know you've seen the many posts, from many people, about that over in the politics thread.

Guilt projection.

Sorry you can't handle being corrected about something as simple as a player's salary.

His salary? Oh, maybe that's where you get confused. Since his acquisition, you've posted a few times how the great Kwesi signed him for just a few million as he came off injury.

In the future, look at ALL the components of a contract. I know you get locked in with erroneous data, but just try.

Za’Darius Smith signed a prototypical team-friendly deal in March when he switched NFC North teams and joined the Vikings after three seasons with the Packers. That contract had a low cap hit for the Vikings in 2022, only $3,343,136. For a star pass rusher, that is comically low.

His cap hit might be low, but he is earning a lot during his first Vikings season, $10 million, to be exact. The contract was a masterpiece by cap guru Rob Brzezinksi. In addition to his yearly cash payment, Smith can earn money via incentives. The Vikings added to his contract that he would make $500,000 after recording 8.5 sacks, plus an additional $250,000 after 10,5 sacks and another $250,000 after 12.5 sacks. With two games to go, Smith currently has 10 sacks after the first 15 games, so the next couple of games are important for Smith’s pockets.

The incentive was declared “not likely to be earned” because Smith didn’t meet those milestones in the 2021 campaign. Therefore, the incentives count against the 2023 cap space.

via vikingsterritory


So Smith has earned $10M in 2022. $3,343,136 in base salary, could max out $1M in incentives. Where is the other $5,657,864? An unmentioned signing bonus?


In 2023 and 2024.

We're likely going to have to cut him and eat 3.3M in Dead Cap after this year or rework his contract.

POTENTIAL OUT: 2023, 1 YR, $10,000,000; $3,333,334 DEAD CAP

$6.45M guaranteed at signing (signing bonus + 2022 salary)
Per Game Active Bonus: $176,470

https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/minnesota-vikings/zadarius-smith-16848


Wonder if they will create a couple of void years to kick the cap can down the road?

ZSmith deal:

I would say that is a great contract for the Vikes.
Hope Z earns every penny.

Smiths cap for this year is less than CJ Ham


Too Funny--weird Bill's negativity toward the team was about the same in March. Bill is such a dumbass.

if we keep z'smith for 2023 his cap hit can grow to $22.6mm if he manages 12.5 sacks....

hunter is at $13mm for 2023 - but he's got $11mm kicked down the road....

Here's quite a bit of highlights from the Buffalo game. I wanted to see Diggs' catch and Jefferson's catch. Looking back, it's notable to me how much of the game I forget. So much happened in this game!

I wouldn't give ANY qb $30-50+ mil unless that QB had won me a Super Bowl. Did you win a Super Bowl on your rookie deal? Yes? Great! Here's your hugenormous contract. F it let's just run victory laps and love life. No? Good luck. Next!

Here's quite a bit of highlights from the Buffalo game. I wanted to see Diggs' catch and Jefferson's catch. Looking back, it's notable to me how much of the game I forget. So much happened in this game!

Had to watch it again.

It was so game of the year I'm half hopeful the powers that be...that write the scripts loved it enough to want a repeat of it in the SB.

if we keep z'smith for 2023 his cap hit can grow to $22.6mm if he manages 12.5 sacks....

hunter is at $13mm for 2023 - but he's got $11mm kicked down the road....



Yeah, players have and will continue to be rentals until the tough decisions are made to get ahead of the cap. We also then have to rely on old, mid-tier players in free agency. That's not even factoring in keeping our own emerging players.

Our ace seems to be Void Years:
Yes, Hunter $11.2 million
Cousins $12.5 million
Theilen $2.3 million (with obscene contract numbers coming up)
Others/TBD?

O'Neill will begin his $20 million per year run starting in 2023.

Rather than lease, the Wilfs bought their first armored car for JJ's contract.

ZSmith deal:

I would say that is a great contract for the Vikes.
Hope Z earns every penny.

Smiths cap for this year is less than CJ Ham


Too Funny--weird Bill's negativity toward the team was about the same in March. Bill is such a dumbass.



Yep, move the goalposts again with a non-sensical reply.

And go with name-calling! Right on Phil!

Clearly you didn't even know about the Contract Notes! You know, the place where other untold millions are specified. Line by line.

The weird thing is you will stick by your $3ish million figure forever even if a bag containing the other $5-6 million whacked you upside your noggin!

Anyone see the Eagles dropping the #1 seed? Hurts may not play and maybe maybe the Saints find something to play for this weekend and upset them...but no way the Giants lose at home to the Colts giving them a reason to play week 18 against the Eagles and the suddenly beat them on the road.

Minshew had a couple of good years with Jax in 2019-20. Not enough to be a QB to build around, but certainly good enough to be a more than capable backup. And he's a pretty interesting and cool cat.

Philly D also steps up. They keep the #1 seed.

Interesting take by Ben Goessling (maybe it's common knowledge) that one reason why the Vikings did poorly at the end of seasons under Zimmer is he practiced them too hard throughout the season. Tired them out. KOC relies more on walk throughs and less on physical workouts.

I'd love to see - wouldn't we all - the #1 seed come down to the final week.

- Freekin' Saints owe us that much
