Audio: Ware not too happy about contract talks - 4/25/09

[dcfanatic]

Here's Demarcus Ware telling the world he isn't too happy that he doesn't have a contract extension just yet...

Ware not too happy these days

Great. I know he's not moaning and groaning, but he ain't sounding like he's jumping for joy either.

Tomorrow had better be some day or else.

Here is one conclusion: Jerry is getting cash conservative and going for cheap. Look at the off season trades - very cheap. TO cost a lot of cap space to dump , but no real money. Trading out of the first 2 rounds? Cheap. Also, why keep a coach like Wade, after he has proven beyond all doubt that he can't coach? You have to pay him anyway so why pay a real coach for the same season as well? Jerry might be getting cheap.

 

[burmafrd]

There is smart cheap and dumb cheap. I hope Jerruh knows the difference.

 

[WG5516]

This is gonna piss me off to a whole new level if this man does not get a deal.

I remember Stephen saying that they're budgeting for bonus' that will be accelerated once/if they release some players. So maybe they're waiting till after the draft to release folks and then sign Ware.

 

[Hoofbite]

He's probably sick of the questions about it.

He also said that he knows Jerry takes care of the deserving players so he's not sweating it.

It was only after they hammered the subject to pulp that he said something like "why wait. you know what you have, why wait".

 

[theogt]

Didn't sound upset about it at all. He just doesn't want the franchise tag. Two totally different things.

yep. Throw in the fact that salisbury wouldnt leave it alone and just kept bringing it up...

salisbury is a creep. I hope he is not involved in the official pre or post game.

This is absolutely nothing. Ware isnt going anywhere and he isnt going to get mad and cause a problem or whatever..

Sounds like he could be upset because he's contemplating being FT'd, but I don't know. Part of the TO thing could have been financial, nothing in this offseason suggests that the Jerry of old is back with his wallet.

This makes the most sense.

 

[ThreeSportStar80]

So we give a overrated QB 30 mil. Yet wait to pay the best defensive player in NFL his due... Yeah that sounds smart.

oh boy.

its a full moon tonight

 

[Vintage]

Ware will get paid.

This is making something out of nothing.

 

[Rogerthat12]

Probably Stephen will address it AFTER the draft, it will get done period.
