No, the time to trade his draft rights has already passed.From my understanding, If Bosa and SD can not come to terms, he goes back into next year's draft pool, is that correct? Can SD trade his rights prior to that?
The Chargers are characterizing it as reducing their offer.This Joey Bosa saga is getting interesting. Apparently the Chargers have rescinded their offer
In a statement issued on Wednesday afternoon regarding unsigned defensive end Joey Bosa, the Chargers said that they will restructure (i.e., reduce) the financial package that previously had been on the table for the No. 3 overall pick in the draft.
The reduction is occurring because, per the team, “Joey will be unable to contribute for the full 16 game season without the adequate time on the practice field, in the classroom, and in preseason games.”
They offered him the top of the slot, and offered to pay 85% of the guaranteed money in year one.Such a stupid, short-sighted organization. Really buys you a lot of goodwill with the players by trying to nickel and dime your top 5 pick.
I am hesitant to take the organization's side of the story based on a press release they shared so soon after making their final offer, especially since the team sat on their ass for two weeks before responding to the player's agents. That seems like some shitty negotiaton tactics to me.They offered him the top of the slot, and offered to pay 85% of the guaranteed money in year one.
They're not the problem here.
Uh, yes, they are. As has been mentioned, they're taking a very hard line and now it looks like they're going to lose a potential impact player for at least part of the season.They offered him the top of the slot, and offered to pay 85% of the guaranteed money in year one.
They're not the problem here.
That's how I saw it as well. SD just trying to set some new threshhold for squeezing every last nickel out of draftees. Perhaps to get more owners in their corner for whatever stadium welfare they are looking for?They are demanding he take two things that top 3 pick have never taken both of and the pick below him didn't have. Offset language and deferred payment of part of bonus.
His side's claim has been they offered "pick one, and we can have a deal but you don't get both." I have yet to see San Diego refute that part of the story.
Seems fairly reasonable offer from his side of true.
The Lions GM is Quinn from NEIts funny. Pats=Good. So Pats Players must = Good. So Teams sign Pats Players as upgrades. They then realize that Pats Players are just "Eh".
At some point teams must realize that there is a System component (or maybe that they are playing with a GOAT QB...) that they are overlooking.
The Bills are in town to play the Redskins tonight, but don't these guys have better things to do this afternoon than eat lunch in downtown DC dressed in Nats gear? (from Twitter)

THIS.Were you expecting them to skip lunch? That's one of their top-7 meals of the day.
Anthem non withstanding he's awful now. This whole thing however might get him blackballed in the NFL. CFL might be where Kap needs to go in order to revive his career.Jay Glazer says Kaepernick might not make the 49ers roster out of TC.
Seahawks are probably cutting Sealver Siliga if you want to keep swapping him back and forth.Nine and Sheard have been hobbled. And MLGFM are all relatively unproven (with long as an injury risk) as starters.
Probably with Knighton leaving your probably right that a DT would be a better guy to look for on the trash heap.
He's probably got a few dozen PIs left in him but not much else.Browner cut. Does he have anything left?
Apparently, Lee didn't make an effort to tackle the punt returner, resulting in a touchdown, and got reamed on the sidelines.Got a kick out of this

Browns trade P Andy Lee and a 2017 seventh-round pick to the Panthers in exchange for P Kasey Redfern and a 2018 fourth-round pick.
