I'd say that's a pretty good deal for Okposo. Lock up Vesey and this team is really gonna start looking like playoff contender.

6 mill for Okposo is fine with me..... 7 years for Okposo is a little tough. Guess you have to give up something to get something. Overall, this is a good thing.

Much rather this contract for Okposo than the same contract with Lucic.

Dreger said Okposo's deal is totally front loaded and structured like ROR's. Incentives and bonuses

Front-loaded makes it easier on us if things go south, easier to move him i mean.

So Okposo and Lucic got the same deal? I'd much rather pay $6 million for Okposo.

No discussion on 39's info about Fowler deal? I still trust 39.

Different sources with different info, no main stream mentioning it. It's nothing as far as I see.
