JPP about to get paid a ton. Hometown discount for NYG?

He just settled with the hospital in Florida for what I'm guessing is 7-8 figures.

 

 

Now he's suing ESPN/Schefter in a Grenada lawsuit which is sure to net him millions more for them tweeting his medical records.

 

 

Does this mean we can get him to come back cheaper if he's getting these fat Trump like lawsuits?

Yep, if another team pays him more, that's where the agent will recommend he go. He MIGHT, offer a small discount for the Giants willingness to stick by him through the process, but that's about where that line will be drawn. With Vernon and hopefully OO, resigning JPP may not be as important....but it really depends on his ability to wrap up and tackle QBs. He has to do that first before anyone's going to look at him with their checkbook open.

A few years ago there was some scuttlebutt that JPP was telling friends he's going to go for the most money possible, no hometown discount or any other kind of discount. Now this was before the accident, and he has matured since then also, but don't forget that things weren't exactly on the best terms between the JPP camp and the Giants camp for the weeks and months following the accident also. So who knows if, after all that has happened, if the events of the past year have helped or even hurt the Giants' chances of retaining him beyond this season.

I'm all about the money too. NFL owners are scum and the players get peanuts compared to NBA or MLB

 

Butt the Giants are a diff orginization and if the guaranteed money is close I think JPP stays. Unless the Dolphins want him, I'm sure JPP would love to play at home for any of the Florida teams. He's a Florida guy.

 

Bigblue25, lets see how he does this year?

 

Not saying give him OV money, but if he puts up 60 tackles and 10 sacks this year he deserves a nice deal in the 3-5 year range
