for Chud's offense(or offensive) we threw at the Bucs on Sunday. With $90 million tied up in two #1 RB's our best option moving forward is a guy we signed for a fraction of that cost this spring. His pass blocking and blitz pick up is superior, his pass catching is superior, and can move a pile forward. He is a proven commodity...

and he is the

Really dude? Tolbert is not our best back. He's 3rd. Anyone who's watched the panthers knows that williams often starts the season slow and stewart was out. Both of those guys can catch the ball and are much better runners. It's not even close. Tolbert caught a 20 yard screen pass yesterday which was nice, but he had to run it out of bounds because he didn't have enough speed to cut it back inside. Watch the tape and stop overreacting to 1 loss!

other than rumbling after a wide open catch he looked like hot garbage.

He didn't even finish that run, he ducked out of bounds like a p*ssy.

Thread gets 3/10 mostly for the use of teh gif.

For what we are trying to do from a RB standpoint he is the best option. I need to go back and watch it but we did not utilize the screen as much as we should have....it would have slowed the dline down. dwill is the 3rd best receiving RB we have.

I never overreact. If anything I underreact.

the problem with running the screen a bunch is that Newton isn't very good at throwing them

      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.
