First of all based on what I've read they want to defer to March, so it's 6 months not a year. Also not getting any of his signing bonus or his salary is going to cost him even more. What is the full 17 million he's passing up worth over a year. Not to mention the fact that if he moves down he'll actually get less money and have to wait longer for it.
I agree the Chargers are being foolish here too, however the player has way more to lose in this case. The Chargers will have lost a top 3 pick, the player will cost himself millions of dollars, all because he's worried about getting part of it in 6 months
