He's guaranteed for the next two years.

His money is.

That's not what he wants.

He wants 4 years + Bonus $$$.

The 2019/20 money is already gtd and will get rolled into the new bonus.

So it will be at least a 4 yr / 60-70 million deal.

35-40 will be bonus $$$.

Avg base will be at least 8-9 million per.

I understand but our situation is a little different . First of all we don’t have that OC and we have a QB overly dependent on not only the rushing game but a talent like Elliott to keep defenses honest or our passing offense would be a total disaster.

You’ll see... lol

Most of us have already witnessed but perhaps others need a history lesson.

Agree

This reminds me of 1993 and Emmitt's hold out.

Any of us could be wrong so you’re right, hopefully we will see what happens without him...permanently. I’m also trying to be optimistic about Moore, he can’t be any worse than Linehan and I have a feeling he’ll be much more creative and not rely on running the ball so much.

He's the best running back in the league, pay him accordingly; however, I wish he would honor his rookie contract and we could wait 2 years.

Wanna bet.

He can sit.

If there’s one position on the team that preseason is not really important, it’s RB. Zeke will be there opening day. Bank on it. Everyone needs to take a chill pill.

I don't know that what Emmitt did could be called a hold out. As far as I know Emmitt was not under contract. The dispute was in the details of his new contract. So he didn't play because he wasn't getting paid.

.......I guess Zeke will be joining Dez, on the All Purpose Ego Team. Where money is god and everything else, ...is... well, abstract.
