This move hurts him far more than it hurts the Chargers.
Holy shit. You're talking like Bosa wasn't a top 3 pick. ROFL

Losing a top 3 pick in the salary cap era is an absolute disaster dude

The San Diego Chargers issued a statement on Wednesday regarding the contract negotiations with first-round pick Joey Bosa.

"We gave Joey's representatives our best offer last night, which was rejected today," the Chargers said in a statement. "The offer that we extended was for Joey to contribute during all 16 games and beyond. Joey's ability to contribute for an entire rookie season has now been jeopardized by the valuable time he has missed with his coaches and his teammates. Since Joey will not report at this time, his ability to produce not just early in the season, but throughout the entire season, has been negatively impacted."

He's too slow to be a 3-4 OLB and IMO he's not the best pass rusher. If you watch him play he really excels at handwork to get off of blocks and make plays in the backfield. I think they were more looking at him as a good fit in sub packages.

Wow-what a Bust pick.

:rolleyes: Yeah, essentially throwing away the 3rd overall pick doesn't hurt a franchise. SD has too many positions to fill to waste the opportunity at a blue-chip player on the cheap.

I cant believe they passed on O-line...

What a cluster-****.

Didn't the 2 picks around him get what he's asking for? With the slotting system it's hard to imagine not getting a guy signed.

Fixed

The bright side? Chargers can take Bosa with a top 5 pick again next year.

It's all about offset language and how much of his bonus is being paid up front.

Quote:
The Chargers and Bosa are now in a stare-down, each side not blinking, over two issues: 1. Payment terms on a signing bonus exceeding $17 million; and 2. The inclusion (or not) of offset language, giving the Chargers financial relief if Bosa were released during the contract and signed elsewhere.
Regarding payment terms on the bonus, Bosa’s camp wants the full bonus paid by the end of the calendar year while the Chargers want to push roughly half of the $17 million until March, when the new fiscal and league years begin. As to offset language, the Chargers have precedent for offset in their rookie contracts, although they haven’t had a pick nearly this high in this new CBA era. (And they did pay Philip Rivers $32 million in the past calendar year, nearly twice the amount of Bosa’s bonus.)

Kinda. Wentz didn't. Ramsey did because the Jaguars never do deferred payments, while pretty much every other team in the NFL does.

This hold out has to be the dumbest holdout in the history of holdouts. Bosa will get all his money. They're fighting over WHEN he gets it. All now, or half now half a few months from now. Pretty dumb.

so he is clumsily saying that any future offers will be reduced because Bosa is past the point of being able to earn a full contract this year...?


what a cluster ****...his agent has failed him
