Why is there so much debate on who's to blame? If we know the facts, it should be quite obvious who's at fault. If we don't, how TF can we judge whose fault it is?

So I thought the point of the rookie pay scale was to end holdouts.
Why didnt the league create a standardized contract? |

Difference is that Eli was the consensus top #1 overall pick in the draft. He was a franchise quarterback prospect that could lead a team for the next 15-years. Add in Philip Rivers, who the Giants traded to the Chargers for Eli.
Archie Manning knew what he was doing – Eli has two Super Bowl rings. From the San Diego Tribune: Quote:
Bad decision that could cost a player millions of dollars.

The Chargers and Bosa are basically quarreling over $2.5M out of his $17M signing bonus.
Is there some millionaire in SD who can let Bosa borrow $2.5M and then get the money back from the Chargers in 2017 when the Chargers want to give him that $2.5M? |

The bolts stuck with the 3rd pick in a 2qb class. Been there.

I think Bosa is holding out, hoping for a trade. SD is quite far away from competing for SB's.

I'm sure there is. Doesn't Denver participate in those kind of contract/cap shenanigans?

I think BOSA's plan really is to hold out and reenter draft with the intent of playing for the Dallas Cowboys. Pure speculation

This year Laremy Tunsil dropped from No. 5 to No. 13 and it cost him at least $8 million.

What is going to be interesting is if the Chargers suck again this year and are picking in the top 5 of the 2017 NFL draft. They have already said publicly "team precedent" doesn't allow them to offer market value contracts that top 5 picks typically get |
