White Linen Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Proves the Bills were keenly aware of the shoulder situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddie's Dead Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 With the rookie contract structure in place, the contract is slotted and the value pretty much pre-determined. Surgery or not, he'll get the same deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iinii Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 He will get his money. Wait. Are you his stepfather? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purple haze Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 I think it will not effect negotiations at all......because it is a corrective procedure not due to a on field injury. There's not much to negotiate. The slot is set already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nucci Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 You seem to think than NFL contracts are slotted. Whatever gave you that idea? I know...crazy thinking...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Where was he when he hurt himself? I thought a dummy was involved but I haven't been around much lately. I don't think Whaley was nearby when it happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 He will get his money. This isn't a serious injury. He will be getting paid to rehab for the next 5-6 months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southern Bills Fan Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 He was in the cafeteria and yes there was a dummy involved. It was Tapioca Tuesday and Rob shoved Shaq out of the way in a mad rush. I have a feeling that's going to happen to a lot of guys this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddaryl Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Seems a little strange to me. He took the risk if something went wrong and the team never signs him. No jokes or smartass, please. Does anyone have any insight? He'll get paid.. If he was dominant in college with a bum shoulder think how good he could be with a fixed wing. He's our Kyle Williams replacement, and we still have Kyle so as disappoint as it is that he won't be in training camp his future is what were after Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 I can't think of a worse way to begin a business relationship between a player and an organization than for said organization to penalize said player in the first contract for having a surgery everyone knew would eventually be needed. In other words, this is a non-issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8-8 Forever? Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 (edited) to me they all honestly thought he would be good to go for this year, so no rush on Lawson's part to sign. I believe there was no deception on either side. he simply "did" something to it in OTAs which set it off unfortunately, which accelerated the surgery. this is football, guys get hurt all the time. as Whaley said , the human mind loves the game and loves to play it and watch it. but by no means is the human body designed in any way shape or form to handle the hits and twists and impacts it deals out. not by a long shot. this is a far less concerning version of Willis McGahee.... tremendous talent/damaged goods you get to pick at 19 when he should have gone top 5 or 10. He's a huge bargain... plus , this is the Bills we are talking about here (making this somewhat inevitable...

4merper4mer Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 (edited) I have a feeling that's going to happen to a lot of guys this year. Well he stepped on Sammy's foot right before pushing Shaq. Rumor has it though that Pegula has had enough and will be replacing tapioca Tuesday with Turkeyburger Tuesday which should calm things down a bit.....at least until Steak and Eggs Saturday.

Probably a good sign. A buffed out coach isn't spending enough time in the film room.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
