how merry would be xmas if but we all had John Candy Uncle Buck nuts
What a mentor and leader. The Giants could be Dangeruss this season.
Giants fans get ready for some cringe post game press conferences.
Giants country, where Jameis Winston and Jaxson Dart ride with the type-o negative russler
Packers planning on releasing Jaire Alexander. He's only played 34 out of 68 games in the last 4 years.
Seems like the perfect guy for Miami to overpay in an effort to improve their secondary.
Packers cut Alexander, Bengals cut Pratt...more to come. I find these types of veteran cuts at this time of the year to be the worst/most unfair part of the NFL non guaranteed contracts.
Once the draft and free agency have happened and most rosters have set, teams have giant amounts of leverage over the Alexanders, Pratts etc to muscle them into pay cuts/cut them at a time when they don't much of a market to find another team to pay them.
While I'm sure that a part of the decision was how they looked in OTAs, I'd bet that most of the clubs knew they wanted to cut salary/cut the players as they entered the off season program but were waiting til they had more leverage.
idk. if i was an agent I'd be doing everything I could to build roster bonuses at the beginning of the league year for my veteran contracts to protect my clients from this happening
wrath,
just as suspected, your piece on free agent pay scales is fully correct by the crummy redeyed law of high-leverage clausable deniability
notice nothing above was said about guilty or innocent
also thought that was a kickass contract post dude
Deals not good for players but what about teams. Watt signs a huge four year deal and wont play the fourth year without more money, more years. No show OTA. Everyone wants more money, but he wont show up for a deal he already agreed to, not some rookie contract... it was a big guarenteed deal.

It’s the other side of the same situation, albeit overall…it favours the team far more than the player. They can play and make money without him, he can’t do either without them.
I’d love to see shorter, fully guaranteed contracts tbh. Reckon it would create far more trades and movement.

the fact that Pratt wasn't going to be a Bengal this upcoming season has been known since ~February
Yep, got it
Meanwhile….as someone who understands the game and the business of the game better than most, it must drive you to distraction that your owners are so ****ing cheap
