You have to factor in the guy had no one to throw to....

I’m not sure we have “no offensive line”…. I think the rookie right tackle gets better and we can add a solid piece in free agency. The front office decided DJ is part of the rebuild. Although I was surprised by the amount of his contract given the incentives, the man gave us a lot to cheer for. Now get SB signed long term and let’s move on.

I love you, man. This is so spot on, it warrants a

I like Jones a lot but a firm believer in delivering before getting the raise.

How so? Unless my math failed me, Carr is getting $37.5M per... And the thinking is Carr is a pro-bowler and a proven winner.. I think this sets DJ's expectations a bit lower now.

No one has anyone by the balls. Remove the emotions out of it. DJ has a realistic value and I happened to believe it's in the $35M range. If another team signs him up for more, so be it. There's value in staying home and Jones has to consider that. He will have to be realistic about the team's many other holes. And $35M isn't chump change either...

That's fucking hilarious, VG.

lol

Agreed. Fuck him. This should end here.

Once again... I'm totally on board with this. I don't think DJ will get the 45 but if you know ANYTHING about negotiations, starting from where you think is the right number will definitely yield you less.

OLs take time to develop, no? Evan was doing ok until he went down... there was a time we wished he was back in the lineup.

😂 well done, BIC

Trust the process.

Did he get paid more? That’s a good enough reason if true.

We are a contender now.

It doesn’t matter. We probably need another year to free up more cap anyway. At least keep the season exciting with Jones and Barkley.

Listen to this man you knuckleheads.

Good luck, my boy.

Oh of course you are. But you're Rik-genius not Seph-genius.

I love you, Rik but no one.. and I mean no one fixes NFL teams like Seph.

I think the team and both Jones and Barkley will come to terms. I work in finance, and I see this type of gamesmanship all the time.

Congratulations, Rik. Would you consider that the norm though?

It's a business decision on his part. Aim high then meet somewhere in the middle. When was the last time anyone of us asked his employer for X and got exactly what he/she asked for?

Jim, brother how are you man? I hope all is well.
