Chris Long has signed with St. Louis, it’s more evidence for those who say rookie contracts will never be made sane unless the league legislates a stricter salary scale for rookies. The numbers weren’t in as of last night, but I hear Long got 16 percent more than last year’s second-overall pick, Calvin Johnson, got in Detroit in his first five years. (As is the case with many of the top deals, Long has a sixth year, but it is voidable, meaning the best way to compare deals is to compare the years of the contract that are not voidable.) I’m told the deal is a couple of million below Jake Long’s five-year, $50-million contract (incentives push Jake’s deal to $57.5 million, but they’re not a part of his base or bonuses), with very similar guaranteed money. That would put Chris Long’s guarantees at around $29 million. Good deal for Chris Long. Eye-rolling deal, another one, to many GMs in the league.
