NFL Network just did a segment asking whether Cam Newton is ready. But they went on to say how he wont get any help from coaches etc because hes locked out. Is he locked out? I mean technically, hes not earning a pay check, not signed, hes still basically a prospect, the same as he was before being drafted and was allowed to talk to coaches and JR. Until he is actually signed, hes not really a player, right? So he can interact with coaches etc.

players are not allowed to "officially" interact with coaches at all until the lockout is over. all players are locked out.... whether they have a team or not.

see thats whats confusing, hes not a player until hes signed

he has the playbook.

not sure what the big deal is.

when he went in on friday he was able to meet with some coaches and the first theing they did was put the playbook in his hands because they had an idea something was going to happen.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      NHL Draft 2025

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
