you serious clark?

For all we know he was telling Fitterer to go a different direction.  The narrative is that Reich wanted Stroud and Mr Meddlesome said no take Young. Maybe Morgan was also team Bryce. For all we know Morgan wanted to shore up the line more but Fitterer either ignored him or didn’t have the means to make it happen. We have no idea what Morgan thinks or how he plans to turn the team around.

Big dislike.  

same logic of why I wanted Fitterer fired with Rhule.  Dan Morgan has been part of horrific player management the last several years.  In an organization where it was reported Tepper had been weeding out non yes men types.  And there he remained.  I don’t care to imagine who owned what % of the all the many many bad player decisions we made….there have been too many for the “answer” to of been on the roster logic. 

loved the player.  And he might be great.  But the looking for the answer inside the mess we have been is a tough sell.

Morgan was hired because he was team Bryce. No way Dave would hire a guy who would want to move in a different direction.

This hire confirms a lot of those types of things.

No way to spin this but he is a yes man on team Tepper. Nothing changes but the names.

    • This is gonna be longest six weeks ever 
    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • 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.
