Bosa holding out...

[Thefeelofcotton]

Yes, you read that correctly. Joey Bosa is holding out of TC because of a dispute on his rookie contract. Apparently he wants ALL of his bonus up front rather than two payments, the first of which is said to be much larger than the second.

Overrated and overhyped......so glad that prima donna drama queen isn't wearing a star

Where's all the "draft Bosa" posters?

I thought the CBA deal was supposed to end these kind of problems. Isn't his contact pre determined by his draft slot?

He was their # 1 pick, give him all of it up front and get him in camp now, anything else is just stupid.
File away how he acted here, but get him in camp.

gotta agree with this. the two issues holding it up appear to be the offset language and the payouts of the bonuses. If you pick a guy #3, you can't let this be the issue keeping him out of camp.

I'll give them Ron Leary for him

Probably thinking SD is being ridiculous here. Because they are.

Apparently this is standard business for the Chargers and they don't want to set a precedent by changing what they do for one guy. I wonder how the rest of the league treats this offset language.

I remember there being an issue with Marriotta and the Titans last year, but this is really silly if you ask me
