BREAKiNG NEWS: Panthers interested in trading for Trey Hendrickson


Recommended Posts

I always think back to Lance Briggs when I see these stories. 

Feels like every year there's a new saga where it's become too personal, they're too far apart, it's over, etc. And then at the last minute, a miracle happens. 

It's why I don't pay much attention to those kinds of things.

Saw something similar to this regarding Parsons and Jones. Jones stirring the pot and being all over social media makes him millions in clicks while he holds out then "caves."

Definitely seems like the prospects of being jettisoned to the Carolina Panthers brought him back to the negotiating table. Amusing.

Definitely seems like you are reaching for something to whine about.

If anything his camp spread those rumors not the Bengals

Are you mad about it buddy? You sure seem like it. Meanwhile all you do is whine about others posts. Why don't you go out and touch grass like you like to tell other people so often.

Anyone on here with knowledge of insurance policies for players this old?  I know for young players it's common, wouldn't imagine it's as easy to get anything worthwhile towards the end of a career. 

$14M bump this year, which is really "only" a $9M bump when you factor the DE franchise tag is $21M.  But even at $30M for this year, he's F'd if he gets seriously hurt this season. 

He would've been better off not playing this year, signing with someone next year for what would've easily been $60 to $80 million guaranteed over 2 or 3 years.  He would lose the $16M this year and his guaranteed net would still be $30-$50 million more across the life of the new contract. 

Hope he stays healthy.
