I'm not even saying that this was necessarily a bad move in an of itself, merely that I was surprised by it and that I hope that it doesn't signal a change in the approach that has been working so well. However, comments like yours are troubling and all too common unfortunately.

I can’t remember ever seeing a 2 year NFL deal that wasn’t really a one year deal with an option. We’ll see.
Even if there are some Y2 guarantees, I don’t think the hand-wringing is necessary. If Ballard wanted to go on a crazy spending spree, why didn’t he last week? This is just a low risk, high reward type of move with limited repercussions on 2020 if it doesn’t pan out.
