Current Players Contracts Bonus's are $0 for many, haven't seen this mentioned yet

[PMO]

I am a die hard Jets fan and I have only just glanced the game over and messed around in skills trainer but I quickly noticed players contracts bonus section being wrong.

Example of correct is David Harris
3yrs $21M
Bonus is $7M (this is perfect)

Revis has 5yrs $70M but $0 bonus which is incorrect as he should have $48M bonus

Cromartie has 4yrs $32M but $0 bonus and that should be $7M bonus

Hope this gets the devs for an easy quick roster update and I am sure many other players on the Jets are wrong as is the same with all the other teams, so whomever your favorite team is I would suggest just checking the players contracts.

Hope this gets somewhere for a fix, thank you

Those contracts are correct according to overthecap. The $48 million is the max he can make in the first 3 years, $39 of that is guaranteed which is the entire 2015 and 2016 salaries and $6 million of the 2017 salary. Which means if he suffered a career ending injury in the next two years he gets $39 million no matter what. In 2017 he can earn the rest of the $48 by playing the full season. He doesn't have an actual bonus until 2017 which is a $2 million roster bonus (on the team on a certain date) which aren't included in Madden. Cromartie is the same way. David Harris actually shouldn't have one he didn't get a bonus either, he got guaranteed Salary as well, which means the Jets better hope there are no major injuries because they will be in cap purgatory. You can look at all the Jets contract here:

Ahhhh interesting, I always seem to forget Madden looks at roster bonus not guaranteed money, gets a little confusing, the thing that annoys me is if I start my career with the Jets and cut Revis I get NO penalty, when in real life if the Jets cut him right now they owe him the $39M, and I meant to type $39M in my OP not $48 lol

Yea I hate the way Madden does contracts, it's too simplistic. I want to have roster bonuses and workout bonuses and be able to back load contracts and really micromanage my cap. I also want the game to punish me if I dont manage it correctly.
