Every man is entitled to what they're valued at.

Chris Johnson sells tickets and merchandise. He makes the Titans a hell of a lot more than what he'll end up getting paid. I don't blame him for wanting a piece.

Me, on the other hand? I'm expendable. I don't get paid $550K because there are thousands of people who can do what I do.

You either get paid for performance or get a big payday up front. I don't agree you get both. Or you structure the rookie contract with performance bonuses.

Not really. The Tits aren't going to win anything this year, anyway. They can find someone else to help them to 8-8 and the team will still make money.

Really? Where?

Because if those guys are floating around, the Chiefs need to snag them up.

8-8 is not an achievement. Management has to be actively inept to consistently miss that mark.

So injuries aren't a factor.

Thanks. I didn't know that.

Eat a full buffet of ****-you-sammich.

You were considered high when drafted and exploded for one season. Right now you're Larry ****ing Johnson.

Yup, that.

RB's are a dime a dozen (outside KC) and the fact that you had an outstanding season and are now demanding a new, top 5 deal, is EXACTLY why the Titans shouldn't give you one.

The player's union has no clue how much it ****ing hosed itself...

I do not have a problem with him asking for a new contract.. But until the players association agrees to a new rookie system players should have to deal with it as they signed up for it..

Shoot. Give me $550,000 and I'll play anything, anytime, anywhere. Players need to start understanding it's a privilege to play in the NFL, and they wouldn't get payed squat if it wasn't for the fans that watch them perform.

It's far too much of a "me" league. His excuse that he won't honor his contract because NFL teams don't honor the players contracts is B.S. As a player, you are a product of the team, and all contracts are able to be broken at any time by the NFL team that you have a deal with. You as a player, has to understand you're not bigger than the team.
