hondo in seattle Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 If he didn't like the provisions of his original contract, he shouldn't have signed it. I'm old fashioned. I think when you make a commitment, you keep it. And if you want a pay raise, don't be a knucklehead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Someday Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 1 hour ago, Shotgunner said: That's fine... But he actually has little to no leverage. If he doesn't show up and play, he won't use up this year of the contract, still be under contract with NYG, and have wasted a year in his prime. It's like playing chicken with a freight train: it won't give up, flinch, or stop. You either give in or get run over. He just needs to show up by I believe week 10. Coming back to play that last part of the season will give him enough to use up that last year on his contract. I think he holds a lot of the leverage because he knows that some team will make him the highest paid WR if the Giants won’t. If the Giants are no longer willing to do that (I wouldn’t blame them if they aren’t) their best bet is to trade him. I hope that whoever signs him is smart enough to put a bunch of behavioral clauses in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope that whoever signs him is smart enough to put a bunch of behavioral clauses in there. Yes I think you are right about week 10, but he said he wouldn't "step on the field" without a new deal. That would be 6 weeks of doing what he said he wouldn't That doesn't mean I believe he won't do it, as I don't trust anything he says, or just about any other player for that matter. I still don't think that gives him leverage. He's not worth what he wants, and just because somebody will pay him that doesn't mean it should be the Giants. Personally, you give an ultimatum, and you have exactly ZERO chance of getting what you want. Giants should not negotiate with terrorists. He entered a contract, and instead of being an entitled douchebag he should just live up to the document he signed. I wouldn't sign him anyway. Some people are just not mature enough to make decent decisions. I believe he fits that category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I were an owner in the next CBA that would be one of the things I'd push back on, Change it to week 5 report or you're out for the year. Or even week 1, the NFL season is a full time thing these days, so you need to be here from day 1 or the year doesn't count. I'd offer them is, OK we'll no longer have Roger be judge and jury, but you need ot report week 1 to get credit for the season.

John from Riverside Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 It is so interesting how things change......2 years ago this guy was the best thing since sliced bread around here and we made this huge mistake trading up for Sammy and not drafting this guy As it turns out....everybody was wrong. Never trade up for anything but a qb ever again please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoBills808 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Great player+complete basket case=Not For Long. Goes to show how all the athletic ability in the world isn't enough to cut it with professionals at the highest level. Good life lesson actually.

Real McClappy Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 What's funny is this guy has missed more time then Watkins. All I used to read was "glass this, glass that" and "we should have drafted OBJ". Dude is s straight up clown. So glad he does not play for the Bills. What kind of moron expects a huge contact after leaving the entire year when broken? Guy has missed 20 games over his first 4 years. Dude is a glass headcase.
