Are you even reading my posts or are you just seeing that it's me and getting angry so posting something completely nonsensical in regards to what you were quoting.

Nowhere once did I mention anything about the player taking a pay cut to help the team cap.

and you said "I don't understand why people are so against players making the most money they can" but in what you quoted from me, I literally said, "Again, say you don't blame them for asking for the most possible, that's totally fair"

Because, and I say this yet AGAIN... All I'm saying is that using the "need to feed their families" argument in defending them is nonsense, that's it.  They have made and would make on what we're offering far more than they need to feed their families.

I'm not saying he shouldn't be asking for the most possible, and in fact in these threads, I've consistently argued for the team to just pay him more than they want to and get it done with.  Because what he's fighting for is what you're talking about, generational wealth, not the ability to feed his family, which you initially said.

But keep quoting my posts and responding with something completely irrelevant to what I said, because you like to argue with me for some reason.

 

For the love of God please stop giving this kid any attention

lol... fair point, but if he quotes me and essentially is fighting me while I'm actually agreeing with most of what he's saying, I'm going to call him out for the stupidity of it.

its clear he is either trolling or a juvenile, simply look at his posting history for clarity

The Rams offer was partially based on the fact that they were desperately trying to make a splash and remain in contention.  If I remember right, they were 3-3 when they made that offer, and the entire NFCW was between 4-3 and 3-4.  The 49ers had just made their big splash acquiring CMC to make their push for the division.  The Rams offer reflected that.

Right now, everybody is 0-0, nobody is desperate (unless somebody suffered an injury at the Edge during preseason that I am not thinking of), and most teams would have no idea what position to acquire in a push for their division yet.  If he continues to hold out, his trade value goes down the longer it drags on.

I said in another Burns thread, when we turned down the Rams offer, we made a decision to get out the checkbook, whether they knew it or not.  We now have to deal with the fallout from that.

I like Burns and want us to keep him but we were fooling ourselves if we thought we were going to get a huge discount in re-signing him lol

Hearing from one of my buddies that the Raiders are trying to trade for Burns right now. Fitt needs to get a favorable contract together for him, like right now! Just read that Garoppolo restructured his free up some money for the team. Hope this does not come true. 

Your buddy have inside information?

Knew about the Adams trade before it happened. So it’s got me a little shook.

 Talking player/s and a first.

Haha not happening, probably some no name scrubs that Fitt will act like they’re so valuable 

[PappyMay]

Chandler Jones and picks ? Would you take that at this point? Have more assets  and save a bit to resign Luvu or spend it elsewhere.  I say that thinking anything below 26mil and I’d want to keep Burns.

They would have to free up more space. Jimmy restructuring got them cap compliant as they were over by 7m.

Have not heard anything about the Raiders. I have heard that teams have contacted the Panthers but they haven’t reached out to anyone regarding BB.

Have also heard that the discussion is not about annual salary but rather guaranteed amount and signing bonus which is still far apart as of yesterday.

I would be very surprised if this drags on longer than a week or two as it is creating a distracting for a brand new coach and rookie QB in their first season together. I imagine the front office will cave or reach a trade deal with another team soon.
