Eric Reid files collusion grievance against NFL


Recommended Posts

It’s going to be really difficult if not impossible to prove that the 32 NFL franchises have not decided independently that he isn’t worth signing.

Yeah, it seems pretty clear that he’s getting blackballed along with Kaep but proving t is another thing altogether.

I probably would have waited until after mid May - June.

This, and also until maybe Vaccaro and/or Boston get signed.

If a team signs him now, it can mess up their compensatory picks for next year.  If they wait until the 9th it will not.  Take a look around the league--what teams have signed any Free Agents since the draft?  This timing was just dumb on his part.

per an unsourced report from an nfl.com reporter that wasn't corroborated by neither reid or john lynch.

Mike Garofolo, and neither Reid's camp or Lynch would confirm or deny it.

Maybe he wants too much money like the rest of the unsigned FA safeties. Got to turn it into a pity party instead though.  Hes only hurting his dumb ass yet again. Maybe he should go pick up trash for a living.

    • AT got what he deserved. Be gone and enjoy those 4 catches and the bench and your pay cut
    • we have been bad offensively basically every game Rico Dowdle hasn't gone full Tecmo Bowl Bo Jackson on folks.  
    • Strongly disagree with the premise here. Without getting too into it, the biggest gripe for many has always been his footwork and pocket presence.  Shallow drops, happy feet, bad awareness - his overall technique is highly unconventional and not beneficial to his size/frame.  His upper body gets mad out of sync with his lower, drops back parallel to the LOS, erratic behavior. When you take that to the NFL level, you get swallowed up. And he got shellshocked and started bailing way too soon on plays. Unnecessary throwaways when he should step UP into the pocket and hit.   He got away with it in school because sooo much of his work was out of structure or quick hits to Jamo.  He was able to not bail early and stick in the pocket this last game. He also was dropping deeper than he usually does to create sight lanes. He can’t really outrun DLs so he needs to create that space via drop to survey properly. When he does these bs skip hops in the gun, he barely drops and is flooded. He needs to stay active with his feet but learn to step into the pocket more.  His average arm when he’s not doing this right turns Pennington esque.
