So, I'll ask AGAIN: When has ANY team/GM/Pioli/Jesus used a draft pick in the 2nd round or higher to draft, or trade for a QB, start him for 2 years, and then cut him due to performance. There's nothing in Pioli's history to suggest that, there's nothing in the Patriots history to suggest that, there's nothing in the modern history of the NFL to suggest that. |

AGAIN: who has taken a 5 tech at #3? pioli has shown that he isnt concerned with precedent. he will set the precedent if needed. thats a fact. Now do i KNOW what will happen? NO BUT if you look at the situation with an OPEN mind it's pretty clear that he left himself an out. You are a funny guy and one day you might realize that just because YOU think it doesnt mean it's right. |

Sauto does have a point, though, about Cassel's contract. If you don't think they would cut him after two years, then you have to chalk up the specifics of his deal (equivalent* to 2 years of franchising [or 1 year franchised + 1 year RFA with no CBA]) as being some kind of happenstance. I have trouble believing they'd cut bait on him so quick, but I also have trouble believing those numbers are just a coincidence. (*it's actually a little cheaper) |

Please, enlighten us. How did Pioli structure the contract to "leave himself an out?" |

Because "if you don't think they would cut him after two years" as I don't - you're failing to recognize that he'll get the rest of the $63M. He's only guaranteed $28M. He's going to get paid much, much more than that. People are trying to justify his contract by saying we'd only be out $28M, when that's far from the case. Hell, for sake of conversation, say we did cut his ass after the 2010 season. He'll earn the entire $28M, plus his base salary for 2009 and 2010, plus any roster bonuses that may have been part of the deal. |

It was said at the time that the contract was front loaded. And by guaranteeing him 28 million when he would have gotten 28 million for two years tells the story

Is the EXACT situation to Cassel? no. But you asked for an example.... Feely was traded for a 2nd... dropped two years later after not playing well. So, you got your answer you little cry baby. now eat a bag of dicks. Okay, CAPTAIN CAPS.

You still have to pay the man his base salary for 2009 and 2010, plus any bonuses/incentives you worked into the contract. And FWIW, the contract WAS front-loaded, where Cassel earns something like $41M over the first 3 years - essentially guaranteeing he'll be here for AT LEAST those 3 years. http://www.arrowheadpride.com/2009/7...ssels-contract |
