Benefits of extending rookie deals early
My new 30 minute podcast that goes over the week 1 Free Agency deals that directly impacted the Colts, and then I go over the possibility of Ballard extending guys like Ryan Kelly, Marlon Mack, and other draft picks early in their rookie contracts.
Let me know what you guys think about what I have to say about it. https://anchor.fm/lawrence-owen/epis...s-early-e3g58d |
Extensions are in the 2nd half of the pod.
A lot of people don't realize players like J.J. Watt had is rookie contract extended 2 years early. Yes, Teams can do that. I name off a few players I think the Colts could benefit from doing so. Check it out, and let me know if you think i'm on to something, or reaching a bit, please.

I’m still planning to listen to this, but I think this is definitely something Ballard will look to do. If he frontloads some of these extensions with the cap rollover, he’ll have more available cap to re-sign other guys in 2020 and 2021.

The Eagles (Andy Reid years) were notorious for extending guys early and it largely worked out for them.
