They are all in on trading down. Much of what he said was posturing for the best offer possible. 2 QBs worthy of the 6th pick? That was the tell. He went too far by saying something so silly.

I think the absurd QB line was something he hopes to use when they draft a QB after trading down.  And one of them will 100% be there because they aren't good enough prospects to go high. Claim they got the QB later that they deemed #6 worthy. 

this is an org that knows they look like schmucks.  They are going to go about this draft to hopefully attempt some damage control to how bad they look.  Which isn't what you want to see. 

There is no way they can put Matt Rhule out there and only have an OT in the first 3 rounds to show for it.   Rhule needs distractions.  OT isn't enough.  Desperate teams do dumb things.

This dumbass is going to trade our pick for pennies on the dollar just to make up for his past shitty mistake.   My hate for this organization grows by the second

If he goes from pick 6 to the teens this dumb motherfuger better get a haul including next years first.

We are trading back.  The question is, with who?  Are we trading back only once or multiple times in the first?

      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.
