wjag Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 A rookie on a rookie scale waiting until 2 weeks before camp to sign spells agent hardball to me. What could they have been holding out for, a better parking spot? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 It's good to have all our draft picks signed before training camp. Holdouts often hurt the player most of all when it comes to rookie contracts since the overall value is pretty much set by the wage scale. Missing training camp pretty much guarantees you won't be able to win a starting job. Offset language only comes into play if he's released (injury money is still guaranteed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh is on the books with his 5th year option next year. Beane (as of now) has only $1M in cap space next year. I think he will sign a guy this year if it's someone he really wants is available at cutdown time, if not rolling over some of it has to be an option. Lot's of other guys to sign next year other than Josh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact he hasn't taken off his Bills uniform since the day he was drafted.

CorkScrewHill Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Deal is 4 years 4.8 million https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/spencer-brown-72474/ To all those asking .. the 25 percent rule is why a good portion of 3rd round picks were unsigned. I don't personally understand it or have the time to research it, but .. her is a link that helps. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/1248192-why-are-there-so-many-3rd-round-nfl-draft-picks-that-are-still-unsigned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
