OBJ says his reported asking price isn't true

[CowboyoWales]

Any truth that when he was offered $4m OBJ's response was..."fine, so long as year two's a guaranteed $36m"

 

[EST_1986]

Who cares stop reporting on this diva already

Just sign him already

 

[ChronicCowboy]

Explain how he is a serious injury risk?

He missed 12 games in 2020 and 2021 combined.

He didn’t play at all last season.

He’s played two full seasons his entire career.

He’s over 30 at a very physically demanding position.

He’s the epitome of serious injury risk.

 

[CWR]

If OBJ is half what he was before the injury that is better than JuJu has ever been. If not for getting to play with Mahomes JuJu likely is stuck with a 3-5m deal.

You know Juju has gone for 1400 and 7 right? He's not a bad wr. He's not elite, but OBJ isn't either anymore.

Maybe I am crazy but maybe we should let Gallup earn his contract and Tolbert develop. We have a number 1 in CeeDee that will probably want top of the market pay. Let’s continue to draft and develop. Who knows Addison or someone like him could fall to 26.

I like Gallup but one thing that was crystal clear (injury or not) is he isn't a number 2 wr. He makes great catches every now and then which makes him a legit 3. FO was dumb enough to think that (basically undervaluing the wr position). We basically saw what this wr core was last year and I don't think much will change if won't make a move on wr now. Obj, Hopkins, or Juedy. Cooks is a more legit number 2 than Gallup but I don't think he moves the offense as much as we need this move too.

I imagine OBJ said to his agent,, "Man I aint even stayin awake on the plane for foe million, dawg".

 

[SoupcanSam]

If this is true and top offer is 5 million per or less, there’s a 100% chance he eventually signs here. I think he’s hoping the Chiefs or Jets jump in with bigger deals but I seriously doubt that happens.

The jets have alot of upcoming talent and the cheifs barely use or need WRs to win anything. Imo they had the worse WR lineup in the league last season and still won the SB.

I have a feeling the Chiefs or Cowboys sign him. Chiefs could jump in with a decent offer since they lost JuJu and Hardman is still a FA.

 

[Cowboysheelsreds058]

Very interesting.

I call BS on the 4 million though. Even the Cowboys aren't offering that.

Lol, that would still be a no from Jethro.

 

[khiladi]

OBj is definitely elite and one of the best in the game. He’s just not healthy the majority of the time.

 

[Redsfan_83]

Probably $4 plus incentives for games played and performance bonuses...means he has to work, and I don't think he wants to

 

[Loso86]

Been saying this

Umm ye your crazy

 

[America's Cowboy]

This guy is a joke! Notice how he intentionally didn't put down what his asking price is? Instead, he acts as if he's the victim by trying to make Jerry, Stephen and our front office seem greedy. I bet this jackalope wants or won't take anything less than $15 mil per year. You willing to pay that for this old, oft-injured retread drama queen who likes to play the victim?

 

[irishline]

21 games played out of the 48 games(three seasons)...

Its 21 out of 50 (the last two seasons were 17 games each).

 

[tm1119]

2 years 16M with incentives to make up to 20 and only 8M (1st year) guaranteed. Based on the JuJu and Jakobi Meyers deals I’d say that’s a fair offer for OBJ right now.

 

[fivetwos]

I just don’t want that freak show here under any circumstance.

It would be typical to have things finally line up right with a real coach running the offense only to have one of Jerry’s marketing/fantasy football acts to have it brought down when he isn’t the focus.

This isn’t a PPR fantasy league people. It’s about winning games. That guy doesn’t help the way too many of you think.

Counterproductive in fact.

We don't need this headache....bad chemistry

 

[DCwarrior]

All this drama about salary, and he said she said tells you all you need to know. Hard pass for me!
