You are one of the few smart ones. Anything is possible. Working your ass off doesn't make a person better it just pays thee phone bills.

i prefer to be depended on, rather than depend on others. Knock on wood i wont have to depend on others until im an old ass man. I do feel bad for those that depend on others through no fault of their own.

Nobody's accused them of being smart.

It is smart. Watson has much more to lose here than the Texans. Watsons set to be a very, very rich man. Generational wealth. Only thing that would stop that at this point is if he decides to hold out multiple seasons, forfeit 140m+, get fined on top of the lost wages, and not accrue any seasons towards FA.

Seems the price tag for Houston involves young defensive starters.  To me, throw picks all day long at Houston.  But if we have to give up Burns and Chinn?  Nope. 

People have been talking about McCaffrey but yeah, it sounds more like Burns and Chinn. Makes sense knowing that they're losing Watt.

For the record, McClain still doesn't believe they'll trade Watson at all, and if they do not likely to anybody but the Jets, but he's offering a starting framework for a  deal anyway.

Burns, Chinn, or Brown would be tough to give up.  I would offer up YGM who also fits the description of young defensive starter.  YGM showed promise as a rookie, so there could be interest

Houston, have you heard about Donte Jackson and Shaq Thompson?  Hell, have you heard about TRE BOSTON?? Pro Bowler in the right system. 

Donte and YGM?

I doubt they would want Shaq and his contract since they already have Cunningham on a big contract

They're looking at replacing JJ Watt. I don't really think Yetur Gross-Matos moves the needle to that level.

if the framework is two young defensive starters, one of them has to be Burns. You can negotiate on the second one but I don't see any chance Burns gets left out.

Most likely true, but I definitely start out talking YGM and/or Donte Jackson. I see Houston hired Lovie Smith.

I wouldn't like trading Burns, but I'm not letting an edge rusher stop me from securing the services of an All Pro caliber QB for the next ten years.

      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.
