Giants Asking Dominique Rodgers Cromartie To Take “Significant” Pay Cut

He's a 31 year old CB with a $8.5M cap hit with $6.5M in cap savings if they cut him and he's declined to the point that they were considering moving him to safety this off-season. This isn't surprising. 

But yeah, like the previous poster mentioned, DG vs. OBJ is gonna be some FUN poo to watch. Especially after that contract the Bucs just handed Mike Evans.

Gettleman’s got a TON of leverage after Odell’s coke video dropped.

No he doesn't. OBJ has never failed a drug test and isn't in the substance abuse program. If he hit the open market there would be no shortage of bidders. If anything, that Evans contract just ensured no extension will be reached this off-season and we'll get to see another Gettleman franchise tag showdown next off-season.

We’ll see.

If the league office decides to do something about it, it’ll be interesting to see how it goes.

FWIW, the Giants FO has already been made aware of that video. We’ll see where it goes from here.

What can they do about it? He's never failed a test. The video doesn't show him obviously partaking in any illegal substance. He can easily claim that blunt it a cigar. Nothing will come of this as long as OBJ continues to pass his tests in the NFL's farce of a testing program. NFL substance tests are more IQ tests than substance tests. Players know the periods when they can be tested. No one actually wants to see players suspended. Not the NFL, not the owners, GMs, or coaches. Not the players, agents, or fans. It's all for the sake of appearances and the only people who get caught up are idiots and people with actual substance abuse issues.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
