JPP looking to get paid.

According to Ralph Vacchiano:

 

"I'm not playing (again) on no one-year deal," he told reporters the day after the Giants' season ended. "I've proved it. I've showed it."

So yeah, he'll be expensive. According to a source familiar with his situation, he has his eyes set on at least the five-year, $85 million deal (with $52.5 million guaranteed) the Giants gave Olivier Vernon. Given the number of teams with cap space to spend who are likely to be looking for a pass rusher -- including the Cowboys -- he might end up with more.

Two double digit sack seasons out of seven and now he's playing with a mangled hand. He had seven sacks this season.  Five and a half of them came in the last two games of the season... against the Browns and Bears who hold the first and third overall picks, respectively. Sacks vs. playoff bound teams? Zero. Pass. HARD pass.

It wouldn't shock me if he got it. Vernon got that contract after back to back 6.5 and 7.5 sack seasons with only one double digit sack season to his name. Them again, Vernon was also three years younger than JPP at the time and had two fully functional hands. I could definitely see JPP getting say 4/$60M from somebody. JPP is just demanding that contract because he's mad that the Giants gave a FA DE that money instead of him. All he had to do was not blow off his hand.

I'll bump this thread when I'm right, so you can kiss my ass.

be my guest, I'm not the slightest bit worried about this coming true. I wont be kissing your ass if you are right though. you'll maybe get me saying you were right but thats about it.

but with that said, will you at least come back here and say you were wrong? I wont ask you to kiss my ass, thats just juvenile.. you just have to declare in a topic linking to this post that your name is "john snow" and "you know nothing".  I'll even give you a $20m cussion, so if he signs within $20 million of his $85m asking number you can claim victory. so do we have a deal?

    • Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers  
    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
