Genuinely curious..who are some recent players who were tagged and traded?
Because the team doesn't want players who don't want to be here.
Look since Vrabel has been coach, if a player says they want to be traded, they get traded. Simple as that.
Let's be fair. AJB didn't want to be here UNDERPAID per market. JRob didn't want to match market. It's that simple.
It was more than that. He said it was no fun playing under Vrabel. He wanted out regardless. He’s a mental case. That was obvious through his own tweets. Players don’t want to be underpaid on their rookie deals, but the busts don’t give teams a refund. Everything always has to be to the players’ benefit.
billionaire owners are lining their pockets even more while these guys put their long term health and well being on the line. Stop.
The owners had the money to buy or start a team...the players for the most part are getting paid quite well and know the risks to play the game...if salaries continue the way they are going soon the star players will be billionaires too lol
If you think the players are getting the better side of the deal idk what to tell you my guy.
Depends who you're comparing there salaries to...the owners? Us? Law enforcement?
Like @KyTitansFan said, it's all good when they want paid but do they renegotiate or give money back when they suck?
No one forced them to pursue football as a career
Last year AJ Brown through 4 weeks:
93 yards
Let’s not kid ourselves that AJ would be putting up those kinds of numbers in Tennessee with our run first offense. I don’t care if he has 5,000 yards in Philly. If he’s not the focus of our offense, there’s no reason to pay him $25 mil a year. Our offense looked better last week in the first half than it did at any point last year with AJ. We have plenty of weapons, just need some consistency.
I'm not arguing for or against trading AJ. I'm simply postings stats, good, bad or otherwise
Robinson was fine with matching market had no stones in setting the market
Excellent! Honestly think he made the correct decision. NFL just needs to raise the CAP significantly.
How about police officers and many other jobs that put their actual lives on the line every day and make less in a year than these guys do in one week? No one is forcing them to play. If they don’t want to risk their health, they can get a normal job like all of us and survive on a regular persons salary. You just made one of the most ignorant arguments I’ve ever read.
I can’t believe there are people dumb enough to feel sorry for players who make the CHOICE to play a game and get paid millions in return.
The cap is based on revenue. It doesn’t need to be raised. It’s the only thing preventing the NFL from turning into the MLB. The higher the cap, the more disadvantage it is for small market teams like the Titans.
NFL needs to lower the cap and bring these salaries back down to earth
Word. I was just adding to what you stated to make a point. People keep talking about AJ in Philly, but it’s an entirely different system.
Tired of the BS "run first" offense label...we take our RB out on 3rd down...do stupid sweeps to our rookie TE on 3rd and 1...25 million $ game manager at QB...just because we have one of the best RBs shouldn't make us a run first offense...is Indy a "run first" offense with Taylor? We need to be consistent on offense and until we know how to draft a WR or use FA WRs we will be predictable
Thought the NFL was making more and more money year over. I wouldn't mind a no cap at all regardless of market size. Revenue sharing already takes place and these owners are billionaires. Got to pay to play, and it would be a great way to keep players that fans get used to cheering for, rather than losing em to a "cap" hit. That's just my opinion and I know many will disagree.
What we really need to do is draft a stud QB on a rookie contract.
