I'm not talking about hypotheticals.

Here's a tidbit from reality:

Love was a healthy scratch for the Packers all through the regular season while Tim Boyle worked as the backup to Aaron Rodgers, and the same has been true during the postseason.

Jordan Love: No action as a rookie

I'm not contesting that Love was inactive. I'm saying it was Covid protocol. The fact that Boyle was a game day backup doesn't mean that the Packers saw him as second on the depth chart which is what you assert. It certainly doesn't mean that after one non preseason he has been 'beaten out.'

So you think Watson would rather stay in Houston than go to the Panthers?

I think that’s when things will get interesting . Right now it’s not something he has to decide.
 

He has to first actually get the team trade him. (They’re still saying they won’t). 
 

Then the Jets have the first shot. If they pass it then goes to the Dolphins. If the Dolphins and Jets pass then they have to go back to Deshaun and say hey, The teams you want aren’t calling, but here’s XYZ team.
 

This is where the Panthers and others come into play and that’s where I believe his relationship with Cam will be a factor in that decision making process. If he’s done with Houston then yea he may decide that Cam had his own experience and his will be different and he decides to come here anyway as Zod has pointed out, he’s a grown man and can make his own choices.

What you are saying is obvious bullshit. They didn't reduce the reps of their first round selection for covid protocol. That doesn't make a lack of sense on any level. 

If you aren't active you aren't second on the depth chart. Second on the chart means one simple thing. That you go in when the 1 doesn't play.

MIA and NYJ will also have the option to make such better offers than we can, regardless of what Watson even wants.

Will be interesting to see how it goes.

I'm not sure it matters.

The Texans are pretty well dug in on their front.

I think they either convince him to give their new coach a chance or they trade him. I think they trade him, but not until draft night, and I think they maintain no interest in trades until then..  I don't think it is in their interest to force a lengthy holdout.  His value declines as they do, and I don't think that bad a team can afford to just let such an investment sit out.

 Sorry we all have our own opinion, don’t really care if you like it or not.

It isn't an opinion on if Cam has a legacy or not, lol. He clearly has had an impact and the very fact we are talking about him in such a huge proportion of threads indicates he has a legacy. 

If you want to argue his legacy is largely meaningless I think you'd be wrong but to argue he has no legacy at all just seems like bitterness or worse.

Inactive for an entire season due to Covid...

God you're .a real dummy aren't you? I guess if you're determined to misunderstand I will leave you to it 

Well, I'm not the one saying brilliant things like "just because they put him second on the depth chart doesn't mean they view him as second on the death chart" 😆

      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.
