For some reason I don't think that's going to happen. Not for the reason you're thinking either. That's two huge contracts in the same year. If they wanted to do that, they should have done that with Diggs and Lamb, not Dak and Lamb.
Fair point but we're not paying that all at once. Not sure how they're gonna get this all done but I think it is possible they sign them both in the same year.
What I'm saying is, all, 100% of the guaranteed money has to be put into a separate account. The player doesn't get it all at once, but the account does. I forget what the time table is, but it isn't long after the guarantees are signed. It's just something us fans rarely think about.
Stephen is really bad at it.
Months ago????? They could have done this deal immediately following his 3rd year. He is going into his 5th year ( 5th year option ). In other words, they could done this 2 years ago.
+1.......So true, imagine how much they could have saved doing CeeDee deal 2 years ago.
Play tough as long as possible, crack at the last moment, deadlines are the best times to make deals with this team per Jerry. Not sure why you don't understand
True, but after having that great season last year, CeeDee would be holding out now for more money. Players aren't dumb. Imagine if Lamb was "only" making $24 million a year. He'd look at some of the newer contracts and feel " disrespected".
Lol lol lol people don't realize this. Get a new deal, a few years, they need more like damn honor your deal
I’m starting to think so. I’ve preached it all year there should’ve been a decision made on Lamb and Dak by now. Get the deal done or explore your options trading them and have their replacements ready. They’ve done neither.
It just doesn’t make any sense.
How frequent does that happen? Daniel Jones gets 40 million a year just like Dak does and he never held out for disrespect. Typically these guys wait a few years before they ask for a better deal. Zack Martin waited years.
