Brooks’ six-year deal with 49ers heavy with incentives

The 49ers recent contract extension with LB Ahmad Brooks is filled with de-escalators, according to a league source, meaning he will have to stay injury-free and achieve subsantial sack totals to receive a maximum average salary of $7.5 million per season.

Brooks received a $7.5 million signing bonus as part of the contract, but there are few other guarantees in a contract signed on Tuesday that is structured heavily on performanced-based incentives. The $17.5 million worth of guarantees are for injury only at the time of signing, not for skill, and that figure could be considerably less if the de-escaltors are triggered.

His base salary of $750,000 for 2012 is guaranteed, and Brooks will be able to make $500,000 in total roster bonuses based on games on the roster, as well as a $100,000 workout bonus.

Brooks has a base salary of $4.3 million in 2013 which is guaranteed for injury at the time he signed the deal. That becomes guaranteed for skill and cap if he’s on the roster April 1 of that year. However, the guaranteed portion can be reduced up to $2.5 million that year if he does not achieve certain sack totals.

In 2014, Brooks has a base of $5.15 million, with $4.95 million becoming guaranteed for injury and skill if he is on the roster on April 1. However, that guaranteed total and base salary can be reduce by up to $2.5 million based on his 2013 sack production.

Brooks can void all de-escalators in the contract if the 49ers win 12 games, he has 93.2 percent playing time that season and San Francisco plays in the conference championship game, or if he has two prior seasons of 12 sacks or more.

Jackson will be the comparabl for a Lofton deal...not an OLB in a 3-4 defense!

I have a feeling that it is going to cost MORE than D'Qwell got to re-sign Lofton, since from what Inside Slant commented that the 2 sides are still as far apart as they were when they began negotiations a while back.

Think you guys are a little to uptight. Ok the guy isn't posting in a standard form of english. No reason to insult if you can't understand just don't comment. If someone comes here and stats a post in spanish are you still gonna flame them because you dont understand their diction. nothing here us honda be posted in the ajc or any type of media outlet for that matter. lay off the insults and keep you comments strictly football if you don't understand it move on.

This entire post is so full of fail I don't know where to start. The problem is grammar. Like I'm honestly baffled as to what to post back because I'd probably be banned trying to explain how incorrect you are.

If someone came on here speaking spanish, that's totally different. There is no human being that truly speaks like that. I'm sorry. You can fall for it and defend him but he is just being an ignorant idiot. The fact that he is trying to hard to type that way (misspelling simple two-letter words but correctly spelling words more complicated). I mean seriously, how do you misspell do, to, you, and who but can spell contract correctly? Plus, dropping the N-word is never acceptable.

I don't agree with the use of the n-word didn't even see that actually.really didnt read his whole post cause I didn't agree with what he was saying. My point was simply why waaste time slandering someones post cause it dosent fall in line with what you do. However I could understand what he was saying and if he a point that I felt I wanted to respond I would. Dont think he should be attacked simply cause he dosent present his posts in "correct" manger as you may be used too

You seriously think this guy is for real? SMH

I preferred the leprechaun guy we had a long time ago that used to post everything in rhymes. His schtick was a million times better.

UGGGH!!! WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?? I keep seeing it every where I go on the boards, but you're the only one that says it! wacko.png

He's making his own catch phrase. It's the new "where's the beef" or "I've fallen and I can't get up". Soon everyone on the board will be saying it. "y u moudin me" It just rolls of the tongue.

I don't see why Atlanta wouldn't sign him to something like this:

6 years, $45 M, $15M of that in a signing bonus.

year 1 - $1M in salary, 2.5M in signing bonus prorated hit - $3.5M cap hit

year 2 - $4M in salary, 2.5M in signing bonus prorated hit - $6.5M cap hit.

year 3 - $5M in salary, 2.5M in signing bonus prorated hit - $7.5M cap hit.

year 4 - $6M in salary, 2.5M in signing bonus prorated hit - $8.5M cap hit.

year 5 - $6.5M in salary, 2.5M in signing bonus prorated hit - $9M cap hit.

year 6 - $7.5M in salary, 2.5M in signing bonus prorated hit - $10M cap hit.
