erm... so what?

doesn't really matter whether these guys get paid immediately for putting down their john hancock or waiting for the season to go by.

guaranteed money is still guaranteed.

edit: if the owner owns manchester united he won't have trouble paying these guys even with zero revenue stream from ticket sales.

You always give signing bonuses because you can prorate it over contract life and it's professional thing to do. When you don't, you got money issue. Even practice squad players get signing bonuses.

yeah, without the signing bonus to prorate the cap hit it significantly increases the hit these guys will have for 2012. Really hurts the amount of ammo you have to go out and get guys this year but hey, guess you've got to do what's best for Manchester United lol

Yeap, in soccer you have to buy players and you pay cash (upfront) and you pay big. Upwards $100m for 1 player. Manchester United midfield is old as hell... Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes... I see Manchester United spending close to $100m in soccer free agency. Manchester wants Sneijder $50m and Eden Hazard $60m.

    • I'll say 6. I don't know that we learned a whole lot about this team during preseason that we didn't already know. We didn't play the starters enough to really get a feel for what to expect. We had one good drive against the Browns, one 3-and-out and two 3-and-outs against the Texans. That's an extremely small sample size across 3 games regardless of performance. My camp/preseason takeaways: Jalen Coker might be the best WR on this team and is certainly no worse than #2. Nic Scourton is going to be a good player for us. Possibly very good. Bobby Brown was our best free agent addition and will do more to help the defense than anyone. Jack Plummer isn't an NFL QB. Not even a practice squad guy. Having anyone other than Canales and Evero call plays was a really stupid and pointless idea. Our depth is largely non-existent, especially on defense. The three areas we actually DO have depth are on the OL, in the WR corp. and at RB. I can't fathom why Dan Morgan didn't do more to upgrade ILB during the offseason. We better hope Lathan Ransom steps up at FS because if he doesn't we have a massive hole there. For all the hype surrounding Sanders and Evans, Tommy Tremble is still the best TE on the roster. I'm only slightly less enthusiastic going into the regular season than I was a month ago. I think our starters on offense are solid and we should be pretty good there unless Bryce totally regresses. On defense, we're probably bottom 3rd in the league if 100% healthy and significantly worse than that if injuries become an issue. We badly need at least two of our rookies to become high-level players early (ideally one of the pass rushers + Ransom) and at least 2 of our free agent additions (ideally Moehrig + Bobby Brown) to be significant upgrades over last year. Call me pessimistically optimistic 😆
    • 2010 was worse. Not much worse but worse. 
    • Lol since 2017 the Panthers are 47-85,    Also since 2017 the Giants are 40-91-1   Lol
