ndirish1978 Posted March 17, 2021 Author Share Posted March 17, 2021 (edited) I wish poison pills were still a thing and we could sign him to a contract that escalates to $40M per year if he plays more than 2 games a year in New England.

We'd be stuck with the guy on that contract we signed and then *we'd* have to pay 40 million if he played more than 2 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's the history of the poison pill for anyone interested. CBA basically removed this as an option later https://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2020/4/29/21118726/steve-hutchinson-poison-pill-clause-vikings-seahawks-nfl-free-agency-hall-of-fame Edited March 17, 2021 by ndirish1978 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whatdrought Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Not sure how that works, since Stefon Diggs technically already owns him?... did the patriots apply for partial custody before doing this? (I’m sure a similar joke exists up thread- I didn’t look cause I wanted to put my version out pure and uninfluenced) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I don't think even in the days of poison pills that would have been okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJS Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 He is a good corner. But we need to build through the draft. Can't afford to have two of the top paid corners in the league. Bring in a talented rookie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
