The signature moment of tight end career was completing a touchdown pa s to quarterback (known as the Philly Special) in a fourth-and-goal situation during the ' LII victory over the , and then he hit the jackpot in free agency last March. The gave Burton a four-year, $32 million contract despite being a largely unproven commodity. Burton's deal, which made him the NFL's sixth-highest-paid tight end by average yearly salary, was worth up to $34.8 million because of $700,000 in annual incentives primarily based on individual statistical achievement. His $18 million fully guaranteed at signing is the second most in any existing tight end Travis D'Arnaud Jersey  contract. Only one tight end, of the , has more than Burton's $22 million in overall guarantees. More on the NFL Burton's contract easily exceeded all reasonable projections for him prior to free agency considering he had spent the previous four years making the most of the limited opportunities he received playing behind Pro Bowler and , who has retired. Cashing in after the Super Bowl without much of a track record like Burton did doesn't happen that often. However, a good Super Bowl performance can help players land lucrative contracts, especially following a solid regular season and/or an outstanding playoffs.Here are several Super Bowl participants with expiring contracts who could reap the benefit financially when free agency begins in March.  New England Patriots             MIA  DE  #93  Flowers could be the most attractive young edge rusher on the open market, since ( ), ( ), ( ) and ( ) seem destined for franchise tags. The Patriots using their franchise designation on Flowers isn't out of the question, although the defensive end number is expected to be in the $17.3 million neighborhood.Flowers' 7.5 sacks during the 2018 season don't quite measure up to the prime franchise-tag candidates' respective totals. His 64 quarterback pre sures (combined sacks, quarterback hurries and quarterback hits) according to Pro Football Focus put him in a six-way tie for the 13th most in the NFL with ( ), ( ), ( ), ( ) and Clark. Flowers had one more pre sure than Lawrence and beat Clowney by five. It wouldn't be surprising if the Super Bowl is Flowers' last game with the Patriots. New England isn't accustomed to paying the type of money currently nece sary for players with the potential to consistently put pre sure on opposing quarterbacks. was traded to the in 2016 when he was heading into his contract year because he was never going to get type of money he Juan Lagares Jersey  was going to command from the Patriots. He signed a five-year, $82.5 million deal averaging $16.5 million per year and containing $53 million of overall guarantees in 2017 to remain with the Cardinals after receiving Arizona' franchise player designation.                NE  T  #77  Who would protect blind side was a big concern after left tackle took a four-year, $62 million contract with $34.8 million fully guaranteed from the to briefly become the NFL's highest-paid offensive lineman. Brown was acquired from the for what was e sentially a mid-fourth-round pick during the 2018 , and was selected 23rd overall to fill the void. Wynn tearing his Achilles in the preseason left the job to Brown, who primarily played right tackle with the 49ers.The ma sive Brown, who is listed at 6-8 and 380 pounds, has been up to the task of replacing Solder. He has played his best football in the postseason. Brown has kept Pro Bowlers Melvin Ingram and Dee Ford, who led NFL edge rushers with 78 quarterback pre sures this season, in check during New England's two playoff games. He has allowed only two quarterback pre sures, both hurries, in the postseason.  The Patriots have established a baseline of $10.031 million per year for the left tackle position with the two-year contract extension Solder signed at the start of the 2015 regular season, when the salary cap was $143.28 million. Solder's deal equates to approximately $13.3 million per year when adjusted to the 2019 salary cap, which is projected to be right around $190 million. This figure is also consistent with the four-year, $53 million deal that had $25 million  Keith Hernandez Jersey fully guaranteed the Chargers gave in 2017 free agency.Financially, Brown will want to be viewed as a left tackle because of big pay disparity with right tackles. The set the left tackle market with $16-million-per-year extension. The highest-paid pure right tackle is Ricky Wagner of the with a $9.5 million average yearly salary.Brown is in an enviable position because slightly-above-average and mediocre left tackles have become valuable commodities in free agency. The five-year, $55.5 million contract received from the in 2017 as a free agent containing $25 million of guarantees is prime example of mediocrity getting rewarded. Brown doesn't have a clause in his contract like Solder had, which prohibited the Patriots from designating him as a franchise or transition player. The 2019 offensive lineman franchise number is expected to be in $14.2 million range. The Patriots could decide to let Brown walk, with Wynn waiting in the wings.               TEN  K  #3  Gostkowski is perfect on kicks in the postseason after converting on 84. Steven Matz Jersey 4 percent of his field goals (27 of 32 attempts) and 49 of 50 extra point tries during the regular season. The 84.4 percent was subpar by Gostkowski's usual standards. He is the third-most-accurate kicker in NFL history with an 87.4 percent conversion rate on field goals (minimum of 100 made).The four-year, $17.2 million deal Gostkowski signed in 2015 as a franchise player still sets the kicker market. Gostkowski could have his sights set on becoming the league's first $5-million-per-year kicker. David Wright Jersey  It will cost $5.98 million for New England to franchise Gostkowski under the 120 percent of the prior year's salary rules for the designation.              PHI  NT  #74  Suh, who wasn't named to the Pro Bowl for the second-straight year, has elevated his play during the playoffs. He has looked like the player the made the NFL's highest-paid non-quarterback in 2015 free agency on a six-year, $114.375 million contract with nearly $60 million fully guaranteed. Suh has helped anchor a run defense that has allowed only 98 yards in 43 rushing attempts for 2.3 yards per carry during the postseason. His seven quarterback pre sures are the most on the Rams in the playoffs.  Suh had multiple suitors after the Dolphins released him last March. He says two teams offered him significantly more money than the one-year, $14 million deal with additional $1 million in incentives he took from the Rams for the chance to play on a Super Bowl contender. Although Suh is 32 years old, the opportunity to make more than he is with the Rams should present itself again.             BUF  G  #76  Saffold benefited from the explosion in offensive guard salaries over the last couple of years. He will be the best guard available in free agency. An
