The Giants have locked up their 2020 first round draft pick to a record breaking five year extension on Wednesday.

Offensive Tackle Andrew Thomas agreed to a five year, $117.5 million contract extension with the New York Giants. The deal includes $67 Million guaranteed and it will keep him under contract until 2030.

The 24 year old has developed into one of the NFL’s best offensive lineman since he was drafted and good blindside protectors don’t grow on trees. The Giants appear to finally have their superstar offensive lineman they have desperately tried to find for years and Thomas will become a mainstay in New York afterall.

Don't Expect Bregman to Pay Off

This week, one of the bigger names in the free agency cycle signed with the Chicago Cubs, and fantasy managers everywhere sighed. Usually, anyone heading to Wrigley Field is viewed as a positive, but for Alex Bregman, more information has emerged suggesting this move could spell trouble for his fantasy outlook. Bregman is a right-handed pull hitter who previously played in two of the more favorable home parks for that profile in Houston and Boston. Both parks feature short left-field dimensions that reward pulled fly balls and help inflate power numbers.

Futures Bettors Will Be Smiling

The College Football Championship is set, and it pits two of the more unlikely teams against each other. Indiana may have the largest living alumni base in the country, with more than 800,000 graduates, but few expected the Hoosiers to reach this stage. They feature zero five-star recruits and have instead relied on depth, discipline, and consistency while dominating all season long.
