If you listened to the presser, it was clear that selecting Ian at the top of the 4th round was for this specific purpose.

 

Ron said something to the effect that Norv loves running twin TE sets, and having two TEs that can block and stretch the field will be huge for Cam and the offense.

 

personally, I have missed this since the Shocky days. I have longed for the opportunity for us to have the ability to do it again, and it seems that waiting time is over.

 

I do believe that we are still missing a power RB with the absence of Stew... but I'm sure we'll sign someone that gets cut later on. 

 

None the less, I'm excited about the reemergence of the TWO TE sets!

Me too

 

 

seems like the perfect kind of situation all around

Pros:

1) Learn from one of the best people on and off the feild.. technique, tips.. just show how to be a professional

2) Allows him to come on slowly. We dont need him to be Greg Olsens replacement just yet. We need him to come in, work hard, show up when his number is called, and BLOCK, and block well. Catch a pass or two a game. Theres a lot of weapons and mouths to feed

 

 

Cons:

1) Fans will jump on his ass and accuse him of not developing and being a bust while Olsen is still here.. they will fail to realize there are only so many touches to go around. Think of all of our play makers that are legitimate threats. Luckily, what fans think doesn't matter.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
