Not NFL ready.

This, he was much too young to be thrown into the NFL....he should have stayed for a year and matured both on and off the field but he came from a tough family situation and needed the money to help out at home....

young. better competition. a pretty tough offense to come into as a young WR. A young #2 is going have a hard time hanging in this offense. Spreading a defense out with a great passing attack probably makes the transition easier on other teams I would think.

Or USC's offense was just on fire....

Jarretts 65yd TD was absolutely busted coverage by the safety. To give up 205yds receiving and just attribute it to "being on fire" isnt what happend. Yes USC played well, but I dont see that safety from Michigan in the NFL still playing.

And just how did a safety get locked onto Jarrett, who was the USC #1 WR? Where was Michigan's #1 CB in coverage? Doesn't appear to me to be a safety blowing the coverage as much as the entire defense missing assignments before the ball is even snapped.

Leon Hall you mean.....he's a pretty good corner, looks like Dwayne just beat his man that day.....

You give me the awful impression that you didnt watch the play. Leon Hall was the #1 CB on him and the Safety was playing bracket coverage. The safety is to play deep on him while Hall takes anything underneath. Obviously the saftey got torched, which is why he was trying like hell to catch him.

You're talking about one play though, both Dwayne Jarrett and Steve Smith beat their man all day....

Specific to that play, yes. But my point was to the entire game knowing that Smith and Jarrett were both owning the CBs, how on Earth did Michigan think their safeties could cover them? There is no way Michigan should have ever let the CBs cover under with no speed over the top with Smith and Jarrett going wherever they wanted to.

But I'm a USC homer and watch every game I can and even knowing the situation Jarrett is in now, it simply cannot be denied he had a great college career. Too bad it hasn't matriculated to the next level.

      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.
