Who is letting him walk? Where the hell are you coming up with this right now? He’s not going anywhere. 

Ummm, we can offer a contract, that's the most we can do... He isn't obligated to accept it. Again, I'm sure the jags made a hell of an offer to Allen Robinson years ago. How did that turn out? Teams will line up to give DJ the bag with the production he's had. Don't be naive

Because teddy is awful and I'm thinking bigger picture. The consequences and ramifications of stalling this out another year. You did see Allen Robinson leave the jags right? Because I'm sure they would have loved having him back . 

If you are thinking bigger picture then it’s pretty obvious trading 3+ first round picks a year into a rebuild is a bad move... it’s the opposite if bigger picture. It’s short sighted. 
 

Rebuilding teams don’t trade all their assets a year into a rebuild with a new coaching staff and GM. That is the opposite of “bigger picture”

I am thinking bigger picture when I keep telling people this is gonna take awhile

Franchise him for a year??? That's cool I guess. Like what are we talking about 

You are the one suggesting a rebuilding team throw 3+ first rounders at an unproven rookie a year into the real rebuild with a new staff and GM. As though that’s what’s gonna keep DJ Moore here. 
 

what are we talking about indeed. This board has lost all sense. Selling the farm for a rookie QB is not how successful teams rebuild. Period

Ok, you can have Darnold for a 3rd.

The fact that you made that joke thinking it was funny shows you aren't a panther fan. Darnold is night and day better then bridgewater and it's not close. We would take him and the joke would be on you

    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • 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.
