Also, the reality is BY was higher ranked than Stroud by a ton of scouts and teams. We did make the wrong choice, but it wasn't as if we went against the grain there (as, say, taking AR would have been).

Sounds like a Tepper move. Rhule was also hyped up by the media before making that mistake

Given how unmotivated the team looked today I'd say that Frank either needs to give up play calling or be let go.

I get a lot falls on BY but I guarantee you that they have filled up his plate for what a rookie would be asked to do.

I was on-board for CJ Stroud because of his accuracy and arm but what got what we got and I'd like to see the dude succeed.

Frank needs to let go of the calls. What else does he have to lose at this point.

The thing is bryce was a media hype machine as well and any team with the 1st pick was gonna be pressured into taking. That backed up the reports about all the teams that were happy not to have the no.1 pick because they knew it was a gamble to take a player like him. Bryce didnt even bother talking to teams outside 1 and 2 picks. The media was not gonna make it easy for anybody not to take bryce, unfortunately we had the owner that embraces the fugery.

9ers are a better organization in every aspect and put their players in position to succeed. The players buy into that system and perform better.

 

Remember what the 9ers gave up to get Lance? Lol...the dude like never even played. And you never even hear about how "bad" that trade was.

      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.
