Linderbaum’s $81M Deal Under Fire | Las Vegas Raiders News
Description
The Raiders just handed out a record-breaking $81 million, three-year deal to center Tyler Linderbaum — making him the highest-paid center in the NFL at $27 million per year — but some coaches aren’t convinced he’s worth the price tag, ranking him eighth among interior linemen and calling him a “liability” in pass protection. Despite not yet earning All-Pro honors, Linderbaum is seen as a crucial upgrade for a rebuilding Raiders team that also brought in new head coach Klint Kubiak and drafted top prospect Fernando Mendoza first overall. With the pressure on to prove himself at the highest level, this massive contract could either be the catalyst for greatness — or the start of a costly misstep.
