Dwayne Bowe reaches agreement with Chiefs?
Source: Dwayne Bowe reaches agreement with Chiefs
Holdout seen flying to Kansas City Friday UPDATED 4:14 PM CDT Aug 10, 2012 KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Holdout wide receiver Dwayne Bowe has reached agreement with the Kansas City Chiefs over his contract dispute, a source has told KMBC 9 News. Bowe, who has missed all of the team's training camp, was spotted flying to Kansas City on Friday afternoon. Bowe, 27, had been holding out while trying to get a long-term contract. He did not sign one before the league deadline for a long-term deal expired last month. The Chiefs named him their nonexclusive franchise player last spring, which meant the team would have to offer him a one-year contract that would make him one of the five highest-paid players in the league. He could negotiate with other teams, but the Chiefs would have the right to match the offer or get two first-round draft picks as compensation. The Chiefs have not yet confirmed that Bowe has reached an agreement with them. The team plays its first preseason game of the year against the Arizona Cardinals Friday night at Arrowhead Stadium.

Whatever. Bowe is a stud. Some lucky NFL franchise is going to pay him.

It's funny how when it comes to a player's responsibility to a team, suddenly everyone's "ethics" and "character" but when it comes to a team's responsibility to a player "It's a business". I don't know what went on during Bowe's contract negotiations, but I do know that Bowe is not violating any contract by deciding to train on his own instead of come to camp. The team wouldn't do anything for Bowe beyond what his contract requires. Why should he?

They'll have a deal done pretty quickly after the season or chances are good they trade a 29 year old WR looking for big $$$. This doesn't seem right but on the game last night they said the Chiefs were the only team in the NFL without a player over 30.

I don't think we'll get more than a 2 or 3 for him...

Bowe is certainly worth a 1st.
However, I don't think anyone would give that up knowing they'll have to give him ~$40m.

I have nothing against Bowe, I think he's the best WR the Chiefs have had since Otis Taylor, and if he wants to hold out, even the entire season, more power to him. You gotta do what you think is best for your career. The team would have to go on. I think he'll sign before the season, but if not, his absence would hurt, not as much as Charles hurt last year, but it'd hurt.
I just think the Pioli=satan's babysitter crowd aren't so much Bowe crazy as they are hoping to hell this bites Pioli in the ass. |
