Kris Brown - extended

[Keith]

If the new guarantee is correct as reported at $2.5 million, then the total four-year extension is worth $10.2 million.

Interestingly, Brown's 2009 base is unchanged per the NFLPA. Given the new signing bonus (esp. since part of it is now allocated into the current cap year), it is common for the current year base to be reduced, usually to the vet min. Also, note anything unusual about his new base salaries?

2010 - $1.95 million
2011 - $1.75 million
2012 - $2.00 million
2013 - $2.00 million

Base salaries are structured in negotiations like this sometimes to get more money sooner in the deal, but in light of 2010 being potentially uncapped, I wonder if that had anything to do with the 2010 base being higher than 2011. Probably not, but curious anyway.

btw - updated cap page has been loaded to the site. FINALLY resolved my issues by getting new software for the laptop, an expense I avoided for too long. Should be easier for me to update the site now though.
