They drafted FS Justin Reid last year who is starting.They did but he’s strictly a SS so who knows we’ll see they lost Jackson and Mathieu. They have two holes there.

At the end of the career are you really going to put your body and your heart and soul into becoming something greater than you already were. I much rather have his position filled in the draft. And that's only one reasonCare to list a few for the great unwashed?
He will regardless, and with Witten returning and signing ET, the draft can be used to boost the trenches.He will not make a difference if the line is not fixed.

I hope not I want Earl too.Gipson, Justin Reid and Andre Hal. No real reason to sign another safety at this point.
Have you followed his career. Do you know how he obtain those interceptions. Or was it just the entire system being near Richard Sherman and CompanyI hope not I want Earl too.
Witten will retire before he is cut in augustHe will regardless, and with Witten returning and signing ET, the draft can be used to boost the trenches.
He's 29, but whatever fits your narrative
ignoring the good ole days stuff here, this is very different. a guy who wanted financial security but was told to just shut up and play out his deal suffered an injury that probably cost him 20+M.Although I understand your point. Back in the days Tom Landry. If a player was disrespectful on the sidelines. He just ruined his career no other coach would touch him. But yes times have changed its become a win or lose Football League. Sad what happened to morals Integrity football players. Now I called him money Players
was he carted off the field?A fracture of a non-weight bearing bone (tibia) is gruesome?
49ers haven't even talked to him. So they seem unlikely.His demands are not crazy they are in line with Collins Contract however he is almost 30 and coming off injury which
may translate into less than 14 mil to some teams because of risk. I've read Dallas is more thinking 8 to 10 mil per season
and Earl is thing 13 or 14 mil so we are at a stand still both parties in wait mode. I don't think there is any deal in place.
Dallas will do nothing unless SF comes in and offers 13 or 14 mil if not they set.
Ooh. That touched a nerve.BRUTAL post. Did he take a knee too? Old white men (NFL owners) couldn't care LESS about his middle finger to the Seahags coaching staff getting carted off. Trust me. They're all about winning, and if character mattered then about 25% of the guys taken in the draft would be UFA's.
And one more thing: NOBODY is more 'selfish' than NFL teams and their front office so if a player isn't a little selfish, he'll end up used, poor and broken down. We know most of them are used and broken down after retirement so the obvious goal is to not be poor. You know, kind of like the rest of us and especially NFL teams which are getting filthy rich off guys like ET.
Rant over.
[QUOTE="jterrell, post: 9092874, member: 22"]FANS rate ET top overall free agent safety, not sure teams do.
He is 5 years away from his last All Pro season, 2 of the last 3 seasons have ended in serious injury with a gruesome one last year.
I don't see any teams racing to pay 14M for a guy that is 29 with that injury history.
The two places he would make the scheme sing are SEA/DAL and I don't see either trying to pay him even 12M per year.
Dallas has a starting FS that has missed 2 games in his career, costs you 750K and is 23 years old.
ET would be better if healthy but would he be 20x better? DAL is willing to pay 10X more apparently.
