Great OP but I still don't agree that he stares down receivers.

Or maybe the reason it seems that way is because he already has a receiver in mind to go to prior to the snap?

Remember that this team is full of YAC monsters that he can pick and choose from and Sam was like "I can actually get 1st downs(and more) and move the chains like I couldn't with the Jets?  Sign me up for this s--t!"

I think as he gets more comfortable, he'll go for the deep ball like we all want him to.    He has a history of doing that(it's not like he's never thrown it deep before or is unable to) so it's not like we're getting Teddy 2.0 here.  

 

(the "I see Ghosts" crap is played out but Smitty was right in that Sam still has a bit of happy feet due to the Trauma he suffered from his time with that f'n sh-tty franchise in NY)

      Wild Idea.. Trade for Shemar Stewart

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      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.
