The Bengals got a huge steal based on Orlando Brown contract projections

Orlando Brown Jr., who many believed to be the best offensive tackle to hit NFL free agency this offseason, has signed with the Cincinnati Bengals, which is exciting in its own right, but now it appears the contract is incredibly team friendly.

Pro Football Focus projected Brown’s contract would be for five years with an average salary of $21 million a year, totaling $105 million with $70 million of that fully guaranteed.

The Bengals signed him to a four-year deal worth $64.092 million. The contract is front-loaded and includes a $31 million signing bonus, which is the largest ever for an offensive lineman in the NFL.
