That is a great deal for Terron.

I don't know if I'd say it's a great deal.  He's a top 5 talent at tackle, and he's getting paid like one.  In terms of salary on a per-year basis, he's the second highest paid tackle ever.
 
He deserves it, but that's the going rate for a guy at his level.
 
Comparatively, it is a good deal when you consider Cordy Glenn got an almost identical contract.  Glenn is a solid player, but a tier below Armstead.

I think in terms of what he could have gotten on the open market a year from now it's a great deal
