this is a story
I told my friends after the Wilson postseason that if I were Russell Wilson I wouldn't play another down for the contract I was playing for (without knowing about this 3 years bullshit) only for me to read this article and be completely appalled by the fact the NLFPA was stupid enough to agree to this nonsense. It's total bullshit and unfair to young players who deserve to be paid like premiere professionals in their BILLION DOLLAR INDUSTRY. |

and I always laugh when Joe Message Board Poster says something like "oh waaaah $300K is still a lot of money!"
first off, no shit. Secondly, these guys are the PRODUCT for a MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR business that is so profitable the owners won't even open up their books because they don't want the NFLPA to see just how much money they are making...the product deserves to be paid what they are worth...and guys like Russell Wilson are worth a SHIT TON of money. The best of the best of the best have 10 years to make as much money as they can possibly make to last them a lifetime...we have 40 years to make enough money to live a comfortable retirement. I absolutely think anyone that agrees with the idea that these guys shouldn't be allowed to renegotiate their contracts whenever they want are flat out ignorant human beings. If anyone honestly agrees with that then every rookie contract should be fully guaranteed...from pick #1 to Mr. Irrelevant. |

Jon Baldwin should give his contract back and make NFL minimum for making like 1 play over 2 seasons. Maybe he can give the money to these two?

anyone who watched Wilson or Kaepernick in the postseason and doesn't see their abilities and the fact that at their very best they are better than anyone going right now is ignorant.
I think they are both top 5 QB's for the 2013 season, no doubt. |

The difference is now, the late round gems (or everyone not picked in the NFL "lottery") can no longer rework their contracts...which is absurd and ridiculous.
I've also given concrete reasons why but for some reason you're all too ignorant to understand for some reason so OH WELL. |

the problem with this thread is people are getting confused between Sam Bradford and top 15 picks and Russell Wilson and Alfred Morris as late round picks.
2nd-7th round picks are still making the same amount of money they made during the Sam Bradford $60M guaranteed mega contracts...but guys like Chris Johnson (late 1st rounders) were at least able to hold out for more money after they outperformed their contracts...which is the total right move and should be the right of a player of that caliber... now, the NFL RIGHTLY fixed and slotted NFL lottery picks guaranteeing their contracts as a bargaining chip (great move)...but somehow the NFLPA allowed them to right in a 3 year clause for rookies which is ****ing absurd and if I were Russell Wilson I'd be calling for the heads of all the leaders in the NFLPA it's a travesty for guys like Alfred Morris |
