How does it even keep him from cashing in this off season, I don’t see the real benefit here for the team 

 

Player and agents will use things such as the Pro Bowl to negotiate contracts. 

 

Its definitely a financial play by BB

In a similar but different note, Jacksonville fans have started a viral movement to vote Yannick Ngakoue into the Pro Bowl.

 

Doing so would shift the conditional pick they get from Minn from a 5th to a 4th. (And also shift the pick Minn gets from Baltimore)

 

They're rallying fans from Minn and Balt division rivals (Lions, Pack, Bears, Steelers, Browns, Bengals) to up his vote count.

 

Smartest thing Jags fans have ever done. I wonder if all 4 of them came up with this plot together.

Yes he can be offer sheeted. 

So I just think of another team saying they will acknowledge he’s a pro bowler because of his performance and it’s obvious what the Pats are trying to do, And then making the pats match it anyway (or lose him)

Prow bowl appearances might be a part of contracts/negotiations.

Yes but it doesn’t have to be - another team can run an offer sheet by him that acknowledges whatever he would have garnered with that selection even if the pats won’t do it, and then they either match it or lose him... unless he’s an ERFA which I don’t know.

A dirty little trick by Belicheat. Trying to keep his name from the mainstream as to keep the price lower and him in as much relative anonymity as possible. I hope this costs them in the long run, more ways than one. It couldn't happen to a better organization.

It just seems that players are in a type of concentration camp when playing for that team. I'm sure the rings were worth it???

 

It is when they are actually winning rings. But watch it all crumble when it's still harsh conditions just to go 7-9. We're already seeing those wheels come off.

And folks here worship Belichicks constant low life behavior, that whole organization reeks... they will screw over anyone, including their own, that teams reputation  really can’t get much lower, but Bill will find a way to scrape the bottom a little harder every day, what a piece of 💩 he is,

Saints fans are all in on it too

That’s a garbage move.  If an organization intentionally keeps its players out of the light, that’s just disrespectful of their talents and career.  It’s probably just to keep from having him make the PB while their “starters” miss haha.

The odd thing is, many players have bonuses tied to things like pro bowls. Would be a real story if they did it to keep from paying him more.  

He doesn’t he was an UDFA. He isn’t getting paid much at all, he deserves be on the ballot.

Oh also to put a end to this "hot take"

 

The pro bowl selection by every team is for starters although he starts now

Jason McCourty and Stephon Gilmore are the starters and were listed as the starters and were the ones put on the ballot in the beginning of the season so that is why he was not put on by the ballot..

Thanks I was wondering why he wasn’t on the ballot. He definitely deserves it he is one of the better corners in the league IMO right now.  He will be our #1 after BB trades Gilmore in the off season

That was humor? It wasn’t funny and no punch line or even lols... maybe humor needs be more  obvious and not so weird like.

 

Why so serious. Maybe stay off the Bills board if you're offended.

No, just a typical Pats fan. Now that his team sucks, he is miserable.

Yup, you got me pegged. Gtfoh. Adam is a piece of work to, I guess he's renting space as well. I at least I think Flores is a good coach.

I know he hasn't had as good of a season as last year - but he's 1 year removed from DPOY and the team doesn't need cap space or anything.  Whats the reasoning behind trading him?
