CDogg20 Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 (edited) Per reports, Caleb Williams is demanding part ownership of whatever team that drafts him. I wanna hear what my favorite people gave to say about this! Personally I think this could potentially destroy his draft stock unless he backs off of it. Absolutely ludacris to think that much of yourself Edited October 19, 2023 by CDogg20 2 1 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warcodered Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 (edited) If this is somehow real, and he's somehow saying that he won't play without this then there will just be a spectacular game of chicken wherever he gets drafted because of it. I was going to say that it'd either be that or no one would draft him but then I thought no, what the ***** is he going to do, the team might get screwed but they can still wait him out.

Love the confidence but damn slow down kid 🤣 Confident people bet on themselves before others. While I do not see this effort being successful against the juggernaut of NFL owners I do like the fact that there are still those out there that question “what if” and follow through when they believe strongly enough that status quo isn’t necessarily good enough.

mrags Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Not sure it’s even possible to do it with cap complications. But I would love to see the owners of the league blackball him because of this BS. Demands like this, if something were ever done with it will end up ruining the game. Just like how the first round picks always held out after the draft with their contract negotiations. Hasn’t been a thing for years. I don’t think the owners want anything to do with stuff like this. But you may get some loser team without a QB that gets super desperate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Quote Ultimately, I think Williams biggest fear is that he falls into a terrible situation. When you get selected number one, that's often what happens. That's the luck of the draw, but we've seen guys like Joe Burrow and Josh Allen turn around their teams relatively quickly. I guess Williams wants to jump to the front of the line. This is only the tip of the iceberg. He's playing a risky game. Either teams fall at his feet, and he looks like a genius, or he ends up tanking his draft stock. Even if that happens, it could still be a win because he'd likely find himself in a better situation. This should be fun. There is difference between being on a gutter team and one which had been to playoffs previous year. I think Goodell will save the owners and get rule passed that no active player can be a partial owner of team and no draft pick can be promised partial ownership of team post career.
