This post is far more emotional than his post. 
 

Odds are you know nothing about him outside of him playing football, and yet you judge his character why?

 

Dude is early 20’s, got hurt, has probably been busting his ass for the past year, and he had a moment. 

I can call a spade a spade. My emotions are just fine about it. Does it mean he can't learn from it? No.  Knowing him outside of football isn't relevant to calling out selfish, tunnel vision motives on a football team. It's an objectively bad look.

Judging people without knowing them certainly is relevant. 
 

But you do you boo.

Most annoying thing about the fan base right now.  I don't get it.  

I had a theory that Corral was catching hate because people didn’t want him resulting in us not drafting Young/Stroud. 
 

 

But we drafted Young and…with a choice crowd it seems worse now? So I really don’t get it at this point.

He's in a rough spot.  He's essentially going into his rookie season drafted in the 3rd round behind the #1 overall pick.  He didn't look awesome in preseason last year.  If he sticks around, he'll get another shot, but may end up on PS.

Do you know it was the teams decision? Did he not initiate the change?

It's called a joke and the perfect GIF/meme to fit it, calm down.

Pretty likely that he asked for #2 the second DJ was traded anyways, but even he didn't, if I'm the team I'm taking his number from him and giving it to the #1 pick, particularly after that IG post.  I'd have done it to Clausen too if it was up to me to be frank.

I'm sorry, but once you take a QB #1, it's clear it is their franchise moving forward, doesn't matter if you were drafted well the year before, you're now a backup at best, sorry kid, that's the NFL.  He literally never suited up in a regular season game because he was hurt and is already unlikely to suit up this year outside of injury needs, the number belongs to the #1 pick and franchise QB, sorry kid.

      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.
