Sad, but Corral just became a millionaire, do they really need a gofundme right now trying to get donations from people scraping by with all this inflation?

Corral likely isn't a millionaire just yet.

They don't pay him his entire salary just for signing his rookie contract.

I don't know what the financial situation is like for the families involved, but I am curious when seemingly "well off" folks create gofundme's.

Awful lot of assumptions being made in this thread

Man, that sucks.

As far as a gofundme, the reality is that children are incredibly expensive.  Those children are going to need income to survive, even in a family's care.  I have no problem with it.  We don't know the details of their lives, and that's a much bigger issue at hand.

As far as Matt's money, outside of his signing bonus, which is going to have to repay his agents and lots of post college draft prep, he's not as rich as we all think.  There's also no certainty that Matt gets that big second contract.  Heck, that he starts anytime this year.

Yeah, losing family is horrible.

No he didn’t.  He is a 3rd round pick.  3rd round rookie deals are like 800k ish a year and I don’t think contain guaranteed money….and you get that money weekly during the actual season.   Then factor in taxes on that.   He ain’t taking all that actually home.   He ain’t rolling in dough yet. 

there are huddlers with more cash on hand than Corral right now.   People can do what they want with their money.  3 small kids lost their mom.   Kids are super expensive.  

Can’t go around and dismissing the idea that no one needs help because they got an okay 2nd cousin somewhere out there.

Matt's also mentioned on IG posts about paying off family debt once drafted. Anyone assuming the family asking for a modest $10k for 3 children to have some stability while figuring out which parent or sibling can afford to take them in is some kind of cash grab, pretty low

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
