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.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
