The New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is entering his final year of current contract with the Patriots and he is now expecting a good deal from the Patriots. If the Patriots consider he is worth it, Brady may become one of the highest paid players in the NFL.
Brady is due a $3 million roster bonus on March 5, the first official day of the 2010 league year. And the presence of a $3 million roster bonus could potentially take negotiations to a higher level as roster bonuses can create an added incentive for a team to strike a deal with a player. Instead of paying the roster bonus and then later striking a lucrative extension, there is sometimes a benefit for the team to get it all done at once from an overall cash standpoint.
Actually if Brady continues to play in Patriots jersey for the rest of his career, he will earn $15 million to 18 million or higher per season. Now the two sides just need to figure out where the new deal will be within the range and how the $3 million roster bonus works with Brady's contract situation.
