The Facts:
Star-Tribune staffer Sid Hartman, citing a source involved in making the decision on whether or not Favre will be with the Vikings in 2009, reports this morning if Favre is willing to sign a contract with an option that will determine his pay based on how he performs and how much he plays, the Wilf family will go all out to add Favre to the team.
Reported by the Minneapolis Star Tribune
Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Hartman went on to report the contract will not be guaranteed. It could have some good incentive clauses that will pay Favre well if he can perform like he did in 2007, when he led the Packers to a 13-3 record. On the other hand, if he fails to produce, he will get paid for just the time he was with the team. With the economy as poor as it is, Hartman suggests the Wilfs aren't going to sign Favre to a guaranteed contract and then find out he can't perform. But they are willing to pay him big money if he can produce. ... Makes sense. It also falls into line with the beginning of public negotiations suggested in our previous item.
