Ryan Ellis was set to go to UFA. They're paying a UFA price for him. But if you can find a list of players re-signed to long-term deals the summer before their deal expired and they went UFA (and I'm sure some of the players I just listed are on it), I'd love to see it.
I was trying to find a list of just 8 year contracts that players are currently signed to, but I wasn't able to. You'd think Capfriendly would have something like that.
